I think Cintron has that type of power. Pacquiao DID at 122, but not 126 and 130. R. Marquez did as well at one point....there aren't many.
I have only seen Haye 2 times....so I refrain from saying anything there. I think Pavlik has Trinidad type power, which is awesome, but he usually hits you, hurts you and then puts you down. I don't feel he is a one punch guy where he hits you and there is no follow up, the fight just ends. Cintron can do that.
Kermy can do that, with the right technique (Manny Stew) he can be that X factor that everyone know is vulnerable but can put your lights out in the blink of an eye. Maybe Kermy should move to 154 and blast out that division :think WW has to many skilled fighters for hime to steam roll them all. If Kermy had a Miguel ora he'd be Welter Weights all powerful Alpha male. :yep

Kermit Cintron is IMO the hardest P4P puncher. Well in terms of he will KO you with one. But I dont think that Wlad is too far behind, there arn't that many men in history that hit harder than his Straight right.
Haye Wlad Pavlik I'm surprised there's been no mention of Enzo Maccarinelli... He's a dodging faux-champion IMHO, but the dude does hit rather hard (especially when he hits round the back of the head). I'll give an honorable mention to Maskaev and all!

Daniel Ponce De Leon needs to be near the top of any such list. Seems like people also keep forgetting Rafael Marquez, who has 33 KOs in 37 wins, frequently against top opposition.
You're right about Pavlik. I am a HUGE fan of "The Ghost," but he is not a one punch KO artist, nor is he a guy that can turn a fight around with a single punch. I think the best explanation of Kelly's power came from Bronco McKart: "It's not that he hits that hard. It's just that everything he throws has something on it." That's what "Superman" said after he suffered his first TKO loss in more than 50 fights. Kelly sits down on his punches like few others out there today. And his follow-up is amazing. Just like with JT, watch closely and you'll see that the beginning of the end actually took place when Kelly landed a pefect 1-2 in the middle of the ring. That combo stunned Taylor, and Kelly just went after him with ruthless agression.:bbb Boo
