Old days the stars got all the talk and buzz and regular athletes flew under the radar big time. Like in NBA Wilt Chamberlain a beast old toughness etc etc but in comparison the league was way softer then him but we don't talk about the league being undertalented.

Many/most of them? Sure. All of them? Highly doubt it. Deontay Wilder can knock a horse off its feet just as hard if not even harder than Earnie Shavers and we also had a pretty few very good decent HWs in the last 10 years. The thing is, the sport evolved in a way that sometimes it's too technical and it's sometimes difficult to gauge what are these boxers made of. Tyson Fury might not be the greatest or the most entertaining HW boxer but I think he's doing a fairly good job at least.

This was before Mike. When mike came around, notice in interviews Ali's attitude with Tyson. With other great legends sitting and talking Loud mouth old dude was like "Everybody in this room takes mike Tyson in their prime" Ali instantly even through his disease and off camera Ali says "Speak for yourself". Or when Mike meets Ali on an interview and although Ali was getting slow in vocal response it was like they were both nervous, even was asked who would win, he instantly points at Tyson. Then goes on his normal stuff like "But i was so fast, but if he hit me. ..... ZZzzzz." Ali knew what prime Mike was. Mike worshipped Muhammad cause they were both top tier in styles built to impress not just win. Nobody ever throws mike a bone but Ali did and never hesitated to talk over someone in that response.

That dude was a tough out for any boxer in those days. Shavers was the dude you really didn’t want to fight in your quest for a belt.

My favourite boxer

Shavers and Deontay Wilder are the most devastating one punch knockout artists in HW history. But not necessarily the greatest finishers. Larry Holmes and Bernardo Mercado both got off the deck to stop Shavers. Ron Lyle also was heavily knocked down by Shavers in 1975 but came back to kayo him. Tex Cobb and Ron Stander survived his bombs to stop Shavers. Even Roy "Tiger" Williams had Shavers exhausted and all but out on his feet in 1976. Ref gave Earnie an eight count and he roared back to kayo the durable, steel-chined Williams. Jimmy Young was kayoed early by Shavers in about 1973. But in 1974 the slick boxing Young held Shavers to a draw. A bout most ringside observers thought Young should have won. Not to mention his being blown away by Jerry Quarry in the 1st round in 1973 then losing to the unheralded Bob Stallings by decision in 1974. Shavers had brutal power and tons of heart. But as a finisher he is not in the same league as the great ones like Dempsey, Louis, Marciano, Liston, Frazier, Foreman. He did go 15 rounds with a shot Ali to his credit losing a close but comprehensive 15-round decision.

Speaking of stamina. If you tell Earnie Shavers that he’s going to fight Teofilo Stevenson of Cuba 🇨🇺 for 3 rounds, Earnie would’ve smiled on that and said 3 rounds? That’s all I need! He would’ve flattened Teofilo Stevenson. Because Earnie now knows that he doesn’t have to worry about stamina. Earnie now knows that he has 3 rounds to knock out the Cuban fighter. And Earnie will.

Frazier, Ali, Shavers, Lyle, Ellis, Quarry, Stander, Cobb, the list goes on. It’s sad to see how badly their healths deteriorated. Sadly Frazier’s deteriorated very early due to his fight with developing Liver Cancer and High Blood pressure before age 27. They may be gone but their legacies live on!

Ali was quick to answer that question. And he's right cause he looked like he hit like a freight train...

He never fought Tyson so can't be sure Tyson hits better combinations for sure

Tyson hits like a freight train that you cant deny, but he didnt hit as hard as earnie

Earnie was a precision puncher more than a strong puncher he would wind up and set up into a really strong punch, I think foreman is the strongest simply cause every punch he threw hurt

@@christofferthorsson607 that doesn’t mean anything and foreman just says stuff like that cause he’s older and humble a prime foreman would have dogged shavers

Did you personally feel the punches? I'll listen to Ali and Holmes over you.

These modern boxers are so fkn lucky they weren't boxing back then with all these absolute monsters💀

The way ernie threw his punches was perfect.

I was at that fight. Joe Louis Arena Detroit Michigan. Thomas Hearns vs.Pipino Cuevas under card.

Oh man!! you were there? that's awesome...can't imagine..that last round to be there and see that..!

E. SHAVERS. An All-time Great Without Da Belt.

It always amazes watching these videos of the old boxers/legends. People I never even heard of before hence earnie m. I had no clue , now ima watch some highlights because man these guys fr went at it & took beatings like no other. Just sometimes wish I was of there to witness it. I can only imagine ppl who actually got to witness it even on tv or in person 😭.

I met Ernie Shavers years ago in Grand Pararie Tx at a Boxing event real cool guy. R.I.P. 👊🏽

Earnie was a powerful, serious Boxer ... and he meant business when he stepped into the ring. RIP CHAMP

a lot of fighters got up from his right hand but i believe he can put any man down

Shavers hit real hard , once he connects , God help you !

Bert Sugar! I could hear him talk about boxing all day.

These were the good years in boxing

Tex Cobb literally broke Earnie Shavers' jaw.

I had the pleasure of meeting Mr. Shavers at the fighter's convention in Vegas when Mayweather fought Pacquiao. Such a man and fighter. RIP

Earnie was the kind of boxer who gave you brain damage when he landed them hits

I love how Ali didn't even hesitate to say it was Earnie who was the hardest hitter. That's how you know.

Man. RIP brother

Really loved watching Ali when I was growing up definitely a special human being

I met him several times. He told me, "only 2 people hit harder than me, my ex wife and God. I don't want to mess with either of them..." R.I.P champ

Love these clips of the past.
