    Walcott on film looks strongest. But I’d say they’re all pretty close.

    The left hook which Walcott Ko’d Charles with might very well be the best punch any of the above men ever landed. Aside from that I concur with Gazelle who said “ they’re all pretty close.”

    My first thought was Schmeling to be honest!
