    He's had ten losses. KO percentages can be a bit deceptive as a arbiter of punch power when a fighter has lost a lot of fights (often at the tail end of their career).

    If you look at how often a fighter KOs as a percentage of their victories as opposed to a percentage of total bouts, that's a clearer indication of how well they dig.

    Holyfield could punch...

    Whyte and Povetkin have similiar KO percentage (64% & 63%) I'd say thats a low percentage, because both them guys have proper power in their locker

    Forrest a good shout.

    Jermain Taylor displayed a very dangerous right hand at times..but he had almost no killer instinct and depended on his left more.

    Examples mentioned sort of shows that cold hard stat of KO% isn't always the true story...so many factors and variables involved.
