    Louis was actually more than respectable puncher, he was great puncher

    Quarry v Shavers was the first to come to mind.

    Yes but Louis is not Baer and Hagler is not Hearns!

    Not a 'classics' pair but Pacquiao vs Thurman

    Pacquiao KO percentage at Welterweight is 21% so he isn't the puncher here, wheres at Thurman had a 75% KO rating

    Ask Terry Downes ! Tiger, particularly at Middleweight, hit very hard.

    It was a cuts stoppage, but tiny Jake Matlala chased Michael Carbajal all over the ring on the way to his first world title win. I guess the key there was Matlala's insane workrate.

    A bit niche I suppose but Pat Cowdell annihilating Jimmy Flint. Even Mickey Duff was speechless !
