    Among the strongest, there's Mickey Walker, Simon Brown, Emile Griffith.. and yes, Ike Quartey.

    I guess Hearns is out since you said physically?

    Mosley and Tito were a couple for the more modern era..(Even if Mosley was more of an accumulation puncher, he bullied most people around the weight)
