    Agree on Groves @ smw.

    I think Wlad or Wilder @ HW

    Also I think Kovalev hits harder than Stevenson.

    Thanks.

    Since Abraham slowed he seems to have lost some power, his last two opponents were durable but he just seems a faded fighter.

    Prime King Arthur @ 160 was a devastating puncher, ranks higher than Golovkin.

    I've only seen him thrice, but the Liakhovich KO (Who is known for his granite chin) was brutal.

    I don't care how old Randall Bailey is, that mofo hits like a freaking tank if he actually lands on someone they are done for. He just has a hell of a problem letting his hands go to land anything.

    I think all he got is power, he is able to land because of his long range. Which helps him bypass all the defense...his legs are light and awkward, which I feel makes him the puncher he is...If you are in the ring with Wilder, you have to prepare mentally to experience the most violent trauma...So far 100% fallen, I am very curious how anybody else will take his punch :think

    I rated Roman Gonzalez in 112, I feel Segura is the best power punching show in 112...Roman used his power more effectively never lost so I gave it to him

    108 I like IOKA overall power, but Felix Alvarado has a higher % and they are fighting end of the month, so I am just favoring the Nicaraguan here, so far they proved to produce solid hard hitters.

    I understand why you feel he is harder hitter than Rigondeaux

    I picked Rigondeaux, because I saw him shut the brain of Agbeko with one solid punch, after that he kept him on survival mode for 12...Agbeko is a pressure fighter who never respected any puncher all his life, he walked through Abner Mares for 12 rds. He was hurt and intimidated once he felt Rigondeaux power
