Derek Chisora names the hardest puncher he ever faced and it's not David Haye or Tyson Fury

Derek Chisora has shared the ring with some of boxing’s biggest punchers, a point which makes the London man well qualified to discuss who has the most power at heavyweight.

Earlier this month, Chisora took on another heavy-handed fighter as he went the distance with Deontay Wilder despite being dropped twice before losing on the scorecards. 

Wilder joins the long list of elite fighters who Chisora has faced in a career that stretches back almost 20 years to 2007.

In that time, Chisora has faced Tyson Fury three times as well as taking on massive hitters such as David Haye and Vitali Klitschko. 

Chisora has also gone the distance with Oleksandr Usyk and Agit Kabayel, but who does he consider to be the heaviest puncher he ever faced? 

The answer is Darren Morgan, a huge Welshman who Chisora faced in only his third professional fight. 

Chisora spoke to Talksport in 2023 and revealed that Morgan was the hardest puncher he faced. 

Morgan only fought 13 times as a professional and he walked away from boxing in 2014 after defeating Mateusz Gatek.
