Boilermaker is right. When you're tired your strength goes out the window. Getting in decent shape is not the same as being in fighting shape....
As far as the greatest puncher of all time I'd put him in the top 15. You can't have all those KO's and only be a fair puncher. Moore could punch...
Let's add a twist to this list...Instead of records or accomplishments during the decade, let's go head to head (My favorite way of asessing...
If LaMotta had more power then I'd go with him but he doesn't so I'll take Tiger by decision in a tough one. Similar to Tiger vs Fullmer only Jake...
