    At first I think about three boxers :

    Takuma Inoue or Ryosuke Nishida or Chayaphon Moonsri "Wanheng Menayothin".

    Joe Calzaghe. Although pillow hands isn't quite appropriate for him, more like fly swatter hands.

    Probably as good as you can be while actually being pillow fisted.

    Apparently Calzaghe was VERY heavy-handed early in his career (Eubank and Woodhall both said he had really heavy hands) but he had to change his style due to too many breakages

    Claressa Shields hits harder than SE. I've heard stories of SE being put in his place by larger reserved untrained men in the streets for his cocky attitude and demeanor.
