    I'd say so. Excluding maybe Edwin Valero, I can't think of any current fighter who consistently puts guys away in as brutal fashion. Dude is lethal with either hand and his power carries from round one to round twelve.

    Sure you could say it's his competition, but you could argue the same about most knockout artists.

    I would argue that K-Pav has a better straight punch at 160 pounds.
    If you put a lanky Pavlik up against the fire-hydrant Abraham, you'd have an interesting power war. Not saying Pavlik would win that one...but power-wise, you'd have two of the top guys going at it.

    I don't like these p4p comparisons, but there are a few unique aspects about Abraham:

    It is impressive that he wins fights with doing so little. He doesn't need to grind down his opponents like Pavlik, he doesn't need any other defense than his iron clad guard. He seems very comfortable in the ring and can turn up the heat at will. I don't think anybody else could have knocked out Taylor, Miranda or Gevor with the number of punches thrown as Abraham did.

    No, Haye is the hardest puncher in boxing.

    Raw power wise, probably. He's definitely not the best KO artist, though.

    No. Despite the Hatton KO, Manny is more of an accumulative puncher at 130 and above.
