George Foreman Reveals Who He Believes The Best Puncher In Boxing To Be

It is more than safe to say former heavyweight champion of the world George Foreman knows a thing or two about punching hard.

In many ways during his career Foreman really only ever had one plan when he stepped into that ring.

One uppercut he hit Joe Frazier with literally lifted for former heavyweight champion into the air.

When it comes to modern day punchers in the sport Foreman believes current Mexican boxing star Canelo Alvarez to be the best:

Alvarez takes on Danny Jacobs next month in Las Vegas in what promises to be an absolute war of a middleweight title fight.
