    funny we could also call this most over-rated power of all time - most these guys mentioned so far fall right into that category

    :lol: Yeah very true. I think Prescott does have legit power though but vastly overrated because of Khan. I never thought Maidana had that much power in the first place

    Maidana performed well against kotelnik, Ortiz, Cayo and Khan.

    Mayorga, although you could argue that his personality and fighting style were as important as his big win over Forrest

    Tony Tucker kept popping up as #1 contender for various titles, years after his loss to Tyson

    Mayorga is absolutely spot on. His name is still being mentioned with big fights which is crazy

    all it took was a lucky shot of a lifetime on a legend's chin

    when you beat a legend you become a legend :yep

    Rahman is the biggest example of this IMO. Previously Greg Page? Mayorga is a solid pick. I would of said Paulie M until recently.
