Social media star iShowSpeed beats Alex Pereira on Punching Power

Alex Pereira is no longer the world’s hardest hitter.

Last year, ‘Poatan’ made waves when he famously broke former heavyweight champion Francis Ngannou’s record on the PowerKube, a machine that gauges punch velocity. While attending Fantastic Fest in Austin, Texas last week, Pereira once again tested out his punching power on a standard punch machine that you’d typically find in a bar or arcade.

Pereira put up an impressive high score of 913, but his spot at the top didn’t last for long after social media sensation iShowSpeed showed up and took a turn.
