Featherfisted fighters - past and present

Mundine's strange like that. Sparked by Ottke and Garth Wood yet took Kessler the distance. :huh

 

A lot of Calzaghe's stoppages were very soft!

 

Bollocks, the majority of his stoppages that you may consider 'soft' were because his opponents were taking an unrelenting beating and not throwing back. Joe lands 8-10 unanswered punches and the ref jumps in.

 

Rosenbloom, knocked the other guy out 19 times from 298 fights.

 

I'm not saying he's a fraud or anything, good champ Joe was, but if you watch a lot of his finishes are pitta-patta with ref jumping in dramatically.

 

Like Manfredo? A very humane stoppage.

 

Manfredo wasn’t exactly hurt, but he has to know if he doesn’t answer 30 punches in quick succession he’s likely to get stopped.

 

Bingo. :deal

 

Nicolino Locche - barely scraped into double figures for KOs with more than 100 victories.

From modern fighters i'm always surprised by the lack of KOs on Andre Wards record. Whether that's testament to the talent he's been in with of late or lack of power is debatable.

 

I always think the ottke KO of Mundine looks really odd. I know mundine kinda runs it but it seems such a soft punch and hes spread eagled like hes taking a full power shot of a prime foreman.
Pernell whittaker won loads and had great torque on his punches but didnt have many KO's
Maybe a touch above feather fisted but Bradlys KOs are nothing to right home about
Chris John isnt much of a puncher
nor is bad chad

 

Ian Napa

 

Yeah there are **** loads of massive punchers at straw and light fly, Calderon is just a feather fist.

 

Sweet Pea sparked the durable Naziro inside a round with one punch. His stoppage of Hurtado was also ruthless. He could punch.

 

'Slapsie' Maxie earned his moniker, good shout.

 

Ricky Burns.
