    I still think Hearns would be right up there.

    There aren't many people who he didn't stop that he should have done.

    Leonard was never stopped anywhere near his prime
    DeWitt maybe....
    Barkley obviously - who he would have stopped first time but for...... :-(

    Plus there were the hand troubles around the time of the Benitez fight.

    So really that changes a 61w 48ko record into something closer to 90%, from 147 up to 190.

    Bailey is massive puncher but he only has 1 decent shot in his arsenal - some shot tho!

    Hearns not stopping de Witt was no biggie. He had the reputation of having a great chin, great stoppge for Benn.

    Bailey is the most predictable fighter in the planet but boy when he lands his bomb:kayo

    I guess his plan of blinding his opponent with that limp jab is pretty effective.

    Fitzsimmons would be my call.

    But one fighter who could knock out any Middleweight to Light-Heavyweight and it wouldnt surprise me is Ezzard Charles, guy had frightining one punch power in his prime.

    Edwin Rosario for pure force of his shots is another HM
