    Guys who could fit this description:

    Arthur Abraham
    Archie Solis
    Miguel Cotto
    Bernard Hopkins (although he hasn't exactly gone 'Mexican style' in the past 5 years)
    Rafael Marquez at 118
    Alexander Munoz
    Daisuke Naito
    Maybe Tomasz Adamek, although I still question his chin at cruiser.
    Maybe Herman Ngodjo, although I'm not sure he's top 50 P4P, although he could arguably be undefeated.

    Abraham was the first guy who came to mind though.


    I'm betting Decebal is getting to Lucian Bute, but if he is, then I think he's overrating his defense.

    Bute doesn't have very good defence. He also doesn't exactly like to brawl toe-to-toe...does he?

    Ngodjo then? Or also not top 50?

    Edit: Guess I wouldn't call him a power puncher.

    I feel like Donaire misses the mark on defense, and Molitor misses the mark on power/brawling.

    And BTW, Archie Solis is a champ at 108, Jorge's brother.
