    Nigel Benn?

    Is that some sort of horrible joke?

    Neither Hearns nor Benn had glass jaws. Morrison is the only one that fits the bill, really. Castillo and Ruddock could be rocked, dropped, etc. but were rarely shattered.

    How can you put Hearns but not Lewis?

    Lewis was hurt by lesser fighters than Hearns. Hearns was only stopped by ATG's and then at 168 while on his 3rd weight class. Lewis was stopped by two men smaller than himself who were no where near on the same level as the guys who stopped hearns.

    You're absolutely right, I would definitely offer my opinion on a fighter I have never seen fight before.:patsch

    Sorry, I've seen most of Unca Raja's fights and he was not a puncher. I am not saying he was feather fisted because he could pop but he was no brutal KO artist. We are talking about guys who are guaranteed to KO their opponent or get savagely and embarrassingly KOed.

    I agree with your assessment of Kirkland completely. He doesn't make this list because he hasn't shown the kind of power that nominates one for this prestigious list not to mention the fact that he can't fight for **** and is only going to be savagely KOed by anybody he fights that can crack.

    On Benn, I struggled with that one. He's a bit like Lennox Lewis who I am also a big fan of. Some fights they looked like Iron Chinned Warriors and in others they looked to have Chins made of the finest china. They had shaky Chins at best and that is good enough to nominate both for the list.

    Vincent Pettway, Junior Jones, Luisitio Espinosa, Corrie Sanders, Augie Sanchez, Kevin Leushing.

    Paul Lloyd was a decent bantamweight with good power, but his chin and defense were so bad that he'd struggle to even get through the first round against decent fighters.

    In this category, Herbie Hide obviously takes the biscuit.
