Julian "The Hawk" Jackson Extended Highlights & KO Ratio Comparisons

This content is protected

Ruben Olivares was 61-0 at one point with I believe 58 knockouts. Interestingly Jackson's entire career was 61 fights. Ruben hopped to featherweight from bantam and was still knocking out tough, world class fighters. His body shot KO of the truly iron chinned Jose Luis Ramirez when he was all but washed up is one of my white whales footage wise.

Olivares had a 88% KO ratio over 105 fights where as Julian's sits at 89% over 61 bouts.

There are other hellish lower weight punchers that would give anyone a run for their money in terms of raw power. Bantamweight Jesus Pimentel (Who Olivares knocked out) had 67 knockouts over 82 career bouts, mirroring Julian's 89%.

Bantam/Super Bantam Jaime Garza had 44 knockouts in 54, at a staggering 92%.

There's also Bantamweight champion Carlos Zarate, with 63 knockouts in 70 bouts. A mind numbing 95%.

My sleeper pick for hardest pure puncher ever at bantam just might be Alfonso Zamora, who had 32 knockouts in 33 wins. A insane 96.97 knockout percentage for the Olympic silver medalist.

What other fighters belong in this prodigious group of punchers, statistically?

 

IMO Wlad hit even harder, though his numbers might not reflect that. The shots he landed on an older Mercer were frightening.

 

It's his knockout percentage in his wins, from Boxrec.

 

Yeah agreed 100% there. Vitali put accumulative beat-downs on several fighters before getting the stoppage. Wlad shot per shot looked to be the far harder puncher to me.

 

I took all the statistics from boxrec, I'm not going to crunch the numbers myself, lol. Sorry for any confusion, just thought it might be a fun discussion. Had a similar one a long time ago over in Classic called "Stealing 0's". That was fun.

 

I'm on the spectrum too, haha. Probably one of the reasons I'm so interested in the numbers in the first place... We're wired different for sure.
