I remember seeing him on tv a whole bunch of times. Seemed like he was well-liked by his staff. Being a WH chef would be a pretty great gig.

Boxing powerhouse Earnie Shavers dead at 78: 'Nobody else hit like you'

Former heavyweight boxer Earnie Shavers, famous in the 1970s for having one of the hardest punches in boxing history, died Thursday, according to reports. He was 78.

As an amateur, Shavers won the 1969 National AAU heavyweight title before launching his professional career, where he would contend for two world heavyweight championships, losing out both times to legendary boxer Muhammad Ali in 1977 and Larry Holmes in 1979. 

Holmes recalled Shavers' fight against Ali in September 1977, where after the bout, the world heavyweight champion reportedly said, "Earnie hit me so hard, it shook my kinfolk in Africa."

Shavers attempted several comebacks late in his career, but ultimately retired in 1995 at 51. He finished with a 74-14-1 record, with 68 wins by knockout.

I remember him being such an incredibly hard puncher in an era of hard punchers.
