P4P hardest puncher today?

1. Maidana (Obvious choice, very high KO% one punch power)
2. Haye (Above the K. Bros because he is not as tentative and has many more early KO's)
3. Abraham (Brutal one punch KO power right until the end - see Taylor)
4. Wladmir K. (Huge power in both hands but holds back)
5. Pacquaio (Obvious KO power, but his power comes from speed, did not stop Clottey)
6. Kirkland (Huge power, insane agression, but is currently in jail, not too many big fights)
7. Angulo (Similar to Kirkland but not as agressive)
8. Lemieux (Belive the hype, HUGE power, needs better opposition to get higher)
9. Pavlik (Good KO% and some good wins, grinds down rather than 1 punch power)
10. Miranda (Huge power, but lost against high level opposition)
11. A. Green (Best left hook in the sport today, but that seems to be his only REAL power)
12. Vitali K. (Would be higher but does not have one punch KO power, wears you down)
13. Lopez (Good power, but chooses to box sometimes also)
14. Margarito (Although it looks like its diminished a little)
15. D. Green (Power in both hands but not enough to KO a shot Roy Jones)
16. Williams (Good power, grinds you down)
17. Gamboa (Power based off accuracy and speed)
18. Katsidis (Good combinations, non stop agression, 1 more good win puts him at #12)
19. Froch (Very good power right until the end of the fight, grinds you down)
20. Mosley (Very good power, had Floyd rocked 1 year ago would have been top 10)
21. Cloud (18 KO's in 20 Fights says it all)
22. Boytsov (Very good on the inside, brutal body punches)
23. Cotto (Combines power with boxing ability, good left hook, cannot KO the best though)
24. Montiel (Brutal KO over Hasegawa, very good power, 1 more good win he is top 15)
25. Tua (Would be higher but has not really KO'd anyone recently)

Honourable mentions:
Bredis Prescott (Brutal KO over Khan which does not prove much power wise, no good wins besides Khan which if we are honest was a very lucky win for him, good KO% Against nobodies, can be outboxed easily)

Audley Harrison (Yes, Audley Harrison could have been on a NON negative list, huge power in the left hand, brutal KO over sprott, needs at least 2 more good wins to make 25)

Vic Darchinyan (Last 2 wins are UD's could have lost a little power)

Odlanier Solis (Good power but not great considering the amount he throws and lands, but has the abilty to KO anyone on the right night)

Rafael Marquez (Have not seen enough of him to rate his power but has a good KO% against Alright-Good level opposition although most wins are by stoppage rather than KO or even Knockdown)

 

wouldn't like to take a punch off calderon.

you get head butted in the process aswell.:roll:

 

saying haye hasn't got power is just plain silly.:nut

 

juan urango

enzo maccarinelli

gamboa

 

I'm really surprised Gamboa has been mentioned only twice so far. Sure his opponent level hasn't been very good yet, but he has 15 KO's so far as well as some brutal ones, in only 18 fights.

Sorry, I'm not as technologically skilled with the GIFs like Boxed Ears.

 

Pacquiao
gamboa
martinez
haye

 

Probably Tua.

 

30 deep and not even a mention of Chocolatito? 21 Kos in 25 fights, several of them highlight reel variety, in a weight class where most guys don't get KOs.

Heck, 30 deep and Juan Urango at least deserves a mention. He just doesn't connect clean much because he;s so damn slow, but he broke Ngoudjo's jaw with a punch and you saw what he did to Vilches.

30 deep and Cintron probably deserves a mention as well.

 

boo that's just hatred. you can crack on AA for resume and political shenanigans and also drilling people when they're on the mat but he's a devasting puncher, just doesn't always land consistently

 

:huh

 

Young Klitschko. Abraham.

 

He means since some people don't like to include Heavyweights in "pound for pound" discussions.
