Best Finisher in Boxing Bar None!!

I would have said leonard

 

Off the top of my head (in no order):

Joe Louis
Ray Leonard
Tommy Hearns
Marvelous Marvin Hagler
Aaron Pryor
Tyson

and up until recently, Kelly Pavlik.

 

Malignaggi. If he somehow staggers you he will stop you. Just ask 5 boxers....

 

lol dont forget what he did to diaz when he got him hurt in the second fight.

 

Little Red deserves a shout. If that guy hurt ya, you're dead meat. However, most of his KO's came from a sudden right hand or left hook that seemed to come out of nowhere.

 

but a great finisher in lower weights...
he's more of combination/ will break you down fighter..

 

Terry Norris. Didnt even matter if the guy was on the floor Terry Would still finish them off.

 

Someone who wasn't mentioned was Gerald McClellan. If the hometown referee wouldn't have saved Nigel Benn he might have been the best ever.

Rocky Gannon, Angel Manfredy, Derrick Gainer

 

Agree. Also a shout out to Danny "Little Red" Lopez. How many times was he behind on cards or been down a couple times only to land a bomb and put the opponent away?:yep

Edit: Oooops, didn't read the whole thread, and didn't see Boo's shout to Lopez up there. LR was bad ass though.

 

Leonard is one of the first ones i thought of.

 

Great point about Danny Lopez. If he hurt you, your ass was toast. He could suddenly end the fight with either hand too.

Damn, I need to go through some of my archives. If I had the time, my GF wouldn't see me for days. Just watching tapes and footage 24/7.

 

Great list...JCC definately belongs but, I don't really see Hamed on the all-time list...Although he may not match the term 'finisher' in a classic sense, Vitali Klitschko has a heck of a KO %...Julian Jackson could be up their as well as many others I can't think of on the spot...

If the question is, 'who would you least want to be facing if you were woozy and trying to survive?', I would say Mike Tyson...P4P as a factor and I would say Jack Dempsy or Sugar Ray Leonard or Tyson...Okay Tyson...He was crazy scary...

 

Too many to chose, but Vitali has the highest KO percentage of any heavyweight in boxing history.

Pac does quite well.
