    Cruz has one of the best chins in boxing, he's a real red nose pit up in that ring.

    It's completely subjective who you think hits harder pound for pound and is based on their wins in the weight classes which whey they fight in with the discussion of KO power. Scientifically it would require measuring the kinetic force of their punch and taking size in the equation, with Davis being about 80% the weight of Beterbiev. But I couldn't care less the thread is simply asking the personal opinion of others, you don't seem to be doing much outside of trolling here

    So much this. Let me try to make it easy: If you had a magic ****ing wand and you could bang anybody on the head with it that you wanted to and they would be magically ****ing transformed and you banged all the boxers on your list, they would all be ****ing magically converted by ratios applied to whatever it is that makes them who they are into the same class. I am a high school ****ing dropout and even I can understand that this can likely be done with elementary arithmetic. Why? Why is there such controversy here?

    You want Iron Mike vs Finito Lopez? Imagine Finito at 6" a bit slower but appropriately stronger and both of those qualities subject to the change in mass. We're not trying to figure out the multiverse here. Holy ****!

    Take your pick from Zhang, Beterbiev, Tank and Inoue.

    Beterbiev, Inoue, and even Crawford have more power than Tank.

    Tank fights journeymen level comp at times and uses catchweights w rehydration clauses. Hes got power and is good but his act is also partly smoke and mirrors

    Does Matias rank top 10?

    Or better, would he have before last weekend?

    But more importantly, where does Sunny rank.....
