    Did he have?

    Was Mugabi damaged goods after the losses to Norris and Hagler?

    He also got Jackson out of there in one the second time around, which isn't any small feat.

    Thoughts?

    P4P all time great, power wise?

    What was the source of his power? That v-shape that he had? His aggression?

    Absolute top shelf power.

    Nothing to do with his V-shape. He was born with the potential to be an extremely hard puncher and developed that potential into ability, simple as that.

    Marciano looked more like a professional bowler than p4p perhaps the hardest puncher ever. Looks say very little about power in boxing.

    The question is why he needed to get Steward's help with that, same as Hearns, after not being a hard puncher in the amateurs.
