Who would hit with more force Mike Tysons punch vs The world record holder in the shot put's palm strike?

I see these heavyweight shot put athletes throw a heavy put huge distances and I have no doubt in my mind that they must have serious KO power especially since they only train for all out one off pure power rather than power endurance like a boxer does





Tyson on the other hand is a freak of nature with punches that could kill the average man





So if the shot put champion hit a sensor with a simple rear hand palm strike similar to the motion of throwing the put





and Tyson hit the sensor with his best punch





Who would have the highest reading or who would strike with the most force? and Why?|||I LIKE YOUR THINKING OUTSIDE THE BOX - BUT IT IS SORT OF APPLES AND ORANGES, FIGHTERS FOCUS THEIR POWER TO ONE POINT, WHILE BOTH DO PUT THEIR BODIES OR HIPS INTO IT AS WELL- NEVER THE LESS, IF YOU WANT TO SEE SOME GREAT PALM STRIKES CHECK OUT BAS RUTTEN'S EARLY FIGHTS, THERE WERE NO CLOSED HAND PUNCHES ONLY PALM STRIKES AND HE KNOCKS FOOLS TFO. I STILL HAVE TROUBLE UNDERSTANDING WHY THEY DO NOT ALLOW PALM STRIKES CURRENTLY, MAYBE BECAUSE THE PALM IS NOT FULLY COVERED ??? THOSE TYPE OF STRIKES ARE NOT SANCTIONED BY THE ATHLETIC COMMISSIONS ( LIKE SOCCER KICKS TO HEAD OF A GROUNDED OPPONENT IN PRIDE FIGHTING ) THEY SIMPLY WON'T ALLOW IT - WHICH SUCKS FOR THE FANS OF MMA - THEY ALLOW ELBOWS WHICH FOR THE MOST PART CUT INSTANTLY AND MAKE THE FIGHT LOOK A LOT WORSE THAN IT ACTUALLY IS|||you understand that shot put throwers spin before throwing, as well as often will launch themselves forward right?





a shot putter wouldn't have any super special palm striking ability.|||We really wouldn't know till we hook them up... on the show Sport Science they tested MMA fighter Houston Alexander and he registered 900lbs of pressure in one punch to the head.. I can't even imagine the punching power of Tyson in his hay day. and as far as the shot putter i just check their technique and found that they are not really making a punching or as you say palming motion that will produce a force as strong as a fighter due to the fact that they are using the momentum of the bodies as they spin and spring forward using their legs simultaneously pushing their arm in a upward motion. good question.
