    I think at Super Middleweight there isn't anybody that has had one punch knockout power like he has. For that matter, I don't think there is anyone who I would be in favor of beating a prime SMW RJJ. Middleweight may be a different story though.

    I would say G-Man had more power than him... I rank Jones and Benn pretty close in power as well.

    im not too sure about all this power rjjr supposedly has


    id say he does have good power and alot of speed but seeing the amount of punches guys like pazienza, richard hall, eric lucas took without going down and out from one shot punches i dont think he has all that much power

    put nigel benn in there an let him hit these guys as many times as roy did an benn stops them much earlier

    Roy Jones knocked out Malinga, neither Benn or Eubank could stop him.

    He also knocked out Griffin at LHW with one shot, and stopped Virgil Hill with one body shot at LHW... Having that kind of power at LHW after starting at 154, I think it is safe to say he had a lot of power.:yep

    Power and speed Roy.
    Brutal power, The G-Man
    Hagler said Benn would of been a tough fight.
    Gerald smacked Benn outta the ring in the 1st round no other middle could of done that 2 Benn...fight should of been stopped in the 1st round. It went on, Gerald got hit in the back of the head more times than I ever seen a fighter in one fight..oh yeah, jack $ss ref allowed it. I'd like 2 slap that Jive Wolf! GOD Bless!! Gerald McClellan.

    Yeah...

    Calzaghe fans talk like it was a good thing he was dropped by a wrist and not a punch... Last time I checked, more power is generated at the end of the fist and not the wrist... The way Calzaghe was moving into that punch, if the fist hit him, he might have been out.

    Hell it hurts your wrist when you hit someone with it.:lol::yep
