The hardest punch IN THE WORLD! Brazilian UFC 300 fighter Alex Pereira hits a power-measuring machine ‘harder than a Ford Escort a full speed’ to smash Francis Ngannou’s old record

Alex Pereira has not only beaten Francis Ngannou’s old record on the PowerKube, but also destroyed it, delivering the heaviest blow in the world.

The PowerKube is a device for measuring the force of a single blow, where a padded target is connected to a computer and data is provided in real time.

Ngannou, the former UFC heavyweight champion known for his freakish strength and KO ability, tried out the machine in 2018.

He scored 129,161 power units and Dana White said at the time: ‘His thrusts are equal to 96 horsepower.

‘That’s the equivalent of being hit by a Ford Escort driving as fast as possible.

“And it’s more powerful than a 12-pound sledgehammer going full blast over your head. Holy s***.”

Another UFC fighter Joe Pyfer then beat Ngannou’s score with a strike that registered at 170,218 units.

But now Pereira, the light heavyweight champion who is also known for concussions in the cage, has surpassed that.

Footage has emerged of Poatan hitting the PowerKube with a solid right hand, reaching a score of 191,796.

The reaction in the gym said it all, with stunned training partners barely able to believe their eyes at the Brazilian’s effort.

PowerKube measures speed, strength and endurance. The impact power that Ngannou and Pereira scored combines power (measured in watts) with energy (measured in joules) to form a single, concise metric that accurately represents a combat athlete’s striking power, according to the company’s website.

Speed ​​is measured by timing the time between an attack and the on-screen trigger that triggers it, and endurance over a large number of attacks.

Israel Adesanya, Jiri Prochazka and Sean Strickland have all suffered at the hands of Pereira and he wants to add Hill to their number this Saturday night in Las Vegas.

In seven fights in the UFC, he has already won two titles and established himself as one of the most fearsome strikers in the organization’s history.

He enters the main event at T-Mobile Arena as the marginal favorite, although Hill, who relinquished the title due to a torn Achilles tendon, is also a big puncher.

Pereira’s background is in kickboxing and he has the technique to match his natural strength, which will be fascinating to see against the former champion.

With Ngannou gone and exploring the boxing world, Pereira may now be able to take on the role of the UFC’s scariest puncher.
