    Lamar Clark had an awesome KO record built up against boxing's version of toilet paper too.

    Williams was a bit more legit but the faith in his punching power shown by some who should know better is boggling. The guys KO record was padded lets be honest

    Marciano stopped better fighters than Williams ever could and therefore has to be classed as a better (not necessarily harder) puncher.

    Liston doesnt appear to be that much bigger - but he had the far better hairline. Liston KO1

    Was this the thread where mcvey was trying to score some point about charles being a better fighter during the three years Ezzard didn’t win a pro fight?

    If it was, I think this was after he and others were flogging a dead horse about big cat Williams qualifying as an ATG puncher without beating notable opponents by knockout for the 200th time!:lol:

    First of all, it was intended as a compliment. I actually like Jersey Joe Walcott.

    Second of all, what have you done? (Besides dressing up in mommy's high heels and getting tough on an online boxing forum.)
