Boxing<\/a> fans often debate who has the heaviest hands in the sport. They discuss knockout percentages and highlight reels. They argue over which fighters make opponents think twice before engaging. But sometimes the answers to these questions come from the fighters themselves, like in the case of Oleksandr Usyk, the unified heavyweight champion who has faced some of the most fearsome punchers in boxing today.<\/p>

Usyk has stood across the ring from Anthony Joshua twice. He has gone the distance with Tyson Fury in two closely contested battles. He has taken shots from Derek Chisora and Tony Bellew. Even Daniel Dubois landed what many consider a controversial blow in their first encounter. Yet when asked recently about the hardest punch he has ever received, Usyk’s answer left everyone speechless, including the host Piers Morgan.<\/p>

The Unexpected Contender With The Hardest Punch<\/h2>

During a recent interview on Piers Morgan Uncensored, Usyk was discussing his upcoming July rematch with Daniel Dubois at Wembley Stadium. The conversation inevitably turned to their controversial first fight from August 2023. That match ended with Usyk stopping Dubois in the ninth round, but not before the British fighter landed a punch that divided the boxing world. Some called it a clear low blow. Others insisted it was a legitimate body shot.<\/p>

Morgan asked if that punch from Dubois was the hardest Usyk had ever faced. The Ukrainian champion began to answer, “It was a hard punch,”<\/em><\/strong> but then stunned everyone with a plot twist. The hardest hit Oleksandr Usyk ever received wasn’t delivered by Dubois, Fury, or Joshua. It came from a horse!<\/p>

“When I was young I took a punch from a horse. I worked on a farm. I go, ‘Hey, get it out, get it out,’ Boom, its legs caught me.”<\/em><\/strong><\/p>
