    Good point. Dwight was a bit of an enigma at times as well.

    Finnish heavyweight champion Tony Halme was a strong boxer.

    For his size, Bert Cooper seemed incredibly strong. I remember Riddick Bowe saying Cooper was so strong that he couldn't get off the ropes against him at times, Bert had him pinned there. I don't think Bowe ever commented on Evander's strength? Can't remember.

    Andre Ward was known for being physically strong. Not the biggest hitter but he was able to manhandle Froch and treated Green like a ragdoll
