    Name some fights which had 2 boxers with massive P4P power and were truly world class. These fights are extremely rare. One which springs to my mind is the 'batte of the z's'.
    Alfonso Zamora was a Mexican Bantamweight with 29 wins with all by knockout and the WBA Bantamweight champ. Carlos Zarate is a Mexican WBC Bantamweight champ with 45 wins and 44 ko's. Both were massive punchers and the beating Zamora took is the perfect example of how a brutal beating can derail a career.
    Same some more examples of massive punchers meeting.

    I don't know if Toney was a massive puncher. He had a accumalative effect with his punches, but I woulden't put him on that level. I agree with Roy, he destroyed Thomas Tate in 2 rounds with one punch (I think), the guy who had just went 12 with Julian Jackson. There are many examples of this.

    Maidana is not an elite fighter nor Ortiz but both were big punchers.

    I was thinking Vasquez vs Marquez. Both murderous puncher and very skilled.

    Ibeabuchi vs Tua

    Trinidad vs DLH at the time the biggest fight that could be made in boxing, both regarded as big punchers at 147 and both undefeated.

    Ibeabuchi vs Tua is a great one. Both were monster punches. If Ibeabuchi didn't go to jail the heavyweight scene would be much better.

    THe two greatest of these which never happened would have been Tyson/Tua 96', Tyson/Foreman 90' or even I have a feeling Old George could have won Foreman/Tua 96 and my feeling is it would have went Tyson Tyson Foreman.
    yeah I know that was'nt the question , but all the real ones were almost all taken!
