    Manhoef has heavy hands and speed. Dangerous combination. That Mark Hunt KO was ridiculous.

    I voted for Liddell on this, but I'd change my answer to Anderson Silva. He went up in weight and ktf out of James Irvin. One way you can judge true punching power, when guys carry their ko% into the higher weight classes.

    Pound for pound? Melvin Manhoef, hands down. Anyone that weighs 185 pounds and can hit Mark Hunt harder than a Cro Cop left high kick wins, as far as I'm concerned.

    That's half the story, the other half is if Manhoef's victories come via KO that probably needs a a KO class all it's own. Put it like this i wouldn't let kids watch them

    there's a nice video.

    Manhoef basically makes other fighters cover up and he hurts them even when they have covered up, and the second they put their hands down its over.

    Chris Leben deserves a mention his left hook has won him alot of fights that he never would have won without it.

    Rogan is just high most of the time I was browsing through Eddie Bravos Jiu Jitsu book and Eddies introduction was like 50 pages long and id say 70 percent of it was him talking about smoking pot with Joe Rogan.

    carwin might literally have the *heaviest* hands in MMA given that his hands are the largest in MMA
