Extremely Obscure Power Punchers

Take it you meant the one at 4:55? :think

 

He would be one of my picks. Broke Maskaev's ribs.
Darren Corbett, an Irish cruiser could bang.

Raphael Butler, US heavy could dig, he put Vitali down in sparring in 2005. Crowd pleaser old British heavy Stan McDermott whose son has recently been stopped by Fury & Price, he had a wallop and either got you , or you got him.

 

Anyone ever seen Korean SMW's In-Chul Baek or Chong Pal Park? They both held titles and have great KO rations although the majority of the compitition is weak but Park has a reputation for being a big puncher. I know they're not really obscure but iv never seen either of them fight.

I'm more inclined to believe that one of the many injures including his shot knees which caused him to not make it out of 3 training camp and ultimately retire did that, not Butler.

 

Butler dropped Vitali in 2005 ,what's your point?

 

Armado Ursua. Blasted Freddy Castillo and Hilario Zapata. Humongous whack on him.

 

Wayne Alexander may not be unknown in Britain, but check out his fights with Takaloo and Paul Samuels. Tremendous, if vulnerable, puncher. There's a highlight on YouTube that also shows him waxing people in the amateurs. Even though the best level he ever got to was losing to Harry Simon as a late replacement, I'm confident picking him as one of the hardest British punchers of all time.

Considering he didn't starch anyone above domestic/European level, that's high praise indeed IMO.

 

Ezra Sellers??

 

Watched classic fights on british euro sport more like ko highlight reel with many well known fighters, tyrone trice slightly less known looked like he had good power, after the fight he called james toney into the ring who wasnt impressed.

 

Yusuf Mack. First man to put down Andrade, back when he still had a chin.

 

Jeff Merritt. Toppled Ernie Terrell in 1 round and did a yo-yo display with Ron Stander, but never reached contender status and retired young after being defeated by Stan Ward.

 

Yep IB......the powerful right hand was at 4:55 or something.....

 

Historically, one who has been forgotten is Charley Retzlaff. He looks gawky and like not much against Joe Louis, but his record gives one pause.

He ko'd 53 men in 76 fights, an extremely high percentage for that era (higher than Max Baer), including

Tom Heeney, Hans Birkie, Walter Cobb, Art Lasky, Al Ettore, Stanley Poreda, and Jack Roper.

I wish there were film of him in one of his big wins, just to judge.

 

Earnie Shavers? kidding.

Brian Schumacher, think that was his name back in the eighties. Seem to remember he could bang a bit.
