    Your avatar is extremely distracting. Seen the list, don't agree with the order really, seems very random, but I agree with most of the picks.

    Well no.

    Shavers would top my list for the record.

    Baer killed a man in the ring with a punch, or was it two men?

    If we're talking pure blunt force, Lewis should be ahead of Frazier, as should Baer, and ahead of Dempsey as well. Foreman and Shavers should be at the top in that case as well. If we're talking best punchers, I agree with Tyson, with Louis right behind him.

    Not a bad list, but Joe Louis is ranked ahead of Marciano and Foreman, I cant agree with that.

    Not Foreman, in terms of power anyway, but definitely Marciano.

    Fair enough, but I was doing some reading about Foreman not to long ago, and it spoke about how Foreman's camp had to order a special much bigger heavybag from Everlast, because it moved too much when he would punch the bag, and nonone wanted to hold the bag for him either. He also finished his career with what like 86-87% knockout ratio.

    Joe Louis is spelt wrong for a start.

    List leaves out other divisions. Should be a P4P list.

    Good list.
    But you can argue about the order all day long.
