    As the title suggests, please name away...

    Some names are probably a bit too obvious - Malignaggi is one is suppose. (his face when he wobbled Juan Diaz is one of my favourite boxing memories.)

    That fella that Fury fought the other week didn't have much of a punch. Although he still put Tyson down!

    Think i remember seeing Tyrone Nurses record and it was fairly impressive in its lack of KOs. (Just looked it up - 20-0 with 3 KO.

    Obviously it would be a touch unfair to name somebody like Ivan Calderon who fights in a division where KOs are hard to come by.

    Its also worth noting that some records are deceptive - such as Ovil Mackenzie who doesn't possess a massive KO record but seems to punch like a mule.

    Fire away...

    Sven Ottke. No power whatsoever, which make his knockout over Anthony Mundine so much funnier.

    I wouldn't really say knockouts are harder to get in the lower weights. Roman Gonzalez and Nkosinathi Joyi have good a KO%, in fact most of the fighters from 105-112 seem to have decent power. Calderon's just featherfisted.

    Theres a difference in being feather fisted and having bad hands. Malignaggi and Calzaghe both have terrible hands.

    Edwin Valero was a glass handed fighter, zero power!
