Hardest puncher whose peak weight was 190 lbs or less

A prime Langford could have stayed at 160 - 168 for most of his career ... he moved up because of money ...he flattened men who today would;d have been top cruiserweight and small heavyweights up to 220 pound range ... no one hit like him ..,,. Johnson said it, Wills said it, Jim Flynn said it, Gunboat said it, Jeanette said ti and McVey said it ... he was the hardest hitting p4p on record and I sincerely doubt Marciano or Dempsey hit harder single shot.

 

Rocky is really close to be disqualified. The man often weighed 189 and honestly he looked bigger. His weight was often a marketing ploy. Carlos Zarate was a killer as bantamweight. Hearns as a 147-154 fighter is my choice.

 

Dempsey was not under 190 and most likely not even 190.

 

147/154 pound Hearns was the most devastating puncher in boxing history for any one weight devision.

 

If Langford were around today he wouldn't be heavyweight. With weight cutting, he'd be at 168. So he'd be fighting Canelo and Benavidez.

 

It's Langford or Fitz imo.

Jones and McClellan are the hardest sub ,190 modern punchers imo.

Hi Buddy.
Very astute pics George, might I add, Ketchell and Satterfield.
stay safe buddy, chatsoon.

At this time you could fight at HW weighing anything and Langford won his HW belt weighing 158 pounds. Langford bulking up was a purely personal decision.

 

He didn't bulk ups as much as fought fat ... he didn't have to make weight anymore ..
