    haye is one boxer who actually appears to put all into his punches. his punch that put ruiz down was not even wound up but still put him down. he has extreme power and has proven this by rocking valuev- yes others have rocked him but with accumulation. haye haters will say he didnt land enough punches to win that fight- but in their criticism they dispel the myth that he can't punch- because the few punches he actually landed hurt valuev- we don't need reminding of the only time valuev has ever done the funky chicken

    What do you mean by "puncher"? P4P best one-punch-KO-power? P4P best accumulation puncher?

    I think Bailey or Abraham has the best one-punch KO power. Accumulation punching... Pavlik and Pacquiao are my picks.

    Maybe Abraham is barely above average as a puncher. Only time can tell, really. But for now, let's just assume we're extremely overrating the power. He's more of an accumulation puncher anyway, what with his notorious volume punching and everything. It's not like he does all that much damage with just one or two punches. He's more like a slightly stronger Juan Diaz type. Pavlik would destroy him. At any weight. The guy is all hype so far.

    Yeah, now I understand. He's really feather-fisted. Sorry for my mistake. I was all wrong. ;)

    The knockout against Gevor is so unreal. You can literally see Khorens brain cells fly away

    for KO highlight reels, abraham.
    but then again, when you move up to top opponents the ones who aren't elusive generally have sturdier chins.

    guys like margarito, gatti and froch wouldn't have reached the heights they did without their chin -hell, that includes oscar too.

    I did not know your chin depended on whether you were in your prime or not:roll:

    Hello dickhead - Since YOU missed it, i'll clarify things for you. I was talking about Shannon Briggs sparking out Ray Mercer which he did in the 7th round of their fight. Lennox Lewis was brought in to the conversation as I suggested that Shannon Briggs was one of the hardest punchers in boxing - someone replied that they agreed, but then suggested that the fact that Lennox Lewis was able to withstand Shannon Briggs' shots would suggest otherwise, I then replied that anyone who knocked out Ray Mercer, AS SHANNON BRIGGS DID, must have some pretty serious power as Ray Mercers chin is legendary - I hope I have explained this in simple enough terms for you to understand... let me know if you need it in words of one syllable.

    For further clarification, refer to page 4 of this thread to see how the conversation evolved.

    So, learn to read you illiterate dip****, then learn to follow a conversation, then get your facts straight, then do us all a favour and go **** yourself!

    I think Rafa Marquez is worth a mention.

    35 KO's in 39 wins.

    Raymon Joval retired with a 38% KO ratio. He stopped Shannon Taylor in 10 rounds. Taylor's next fight was against Abraham when AA chose him for a voluntary defense. The fight went the distance.

    Lujaun Simon was living off Bronco McKart's left overs when Abraham chose him for a voluntary defense. The fight went the distance.

    Elvin Ayala lasted 11 rounds, 2 minutes 32 seconds against Abraham. Ayala lasted less than one round with 21 year old prospect David Lemieux.

    Abraham is not even worthy of consideration.

    Boo has it right. Malignaggi hits harder than Abraham, all those people just happened to fall into unconciousness for completely unrelated reasons at the exact moment he happened to be gently patting their heads.
