    Good, 7 - 8.

    Don't think he's got 1 punch KO power though. More of an accumulative puncher.

    i rated 9-10.... i think he is a damn monster... power wise..

    he just has no speed or technique really so it takes away from his power imo @least

    Well I rate power on how effective your punching power is in a fight, so technique/speed etc are all taken into account.

    No point having 10 power if your actual punches are a 7/8.

    Let's see him fight a top SMW, a real SMW, and then we'll know about his power. Kessler's the only guy at SMW that I can think of with one-punch KO power.

    Im going to say 9. For having **** technique and telegraphing every shot, he hit ****ing HARD.

    I guess I am speaking in raw power terms.

    This guy has power (8) - most of his early opponents could not handle his power. He has 20 KO's. If he fights kessler, that should be immense because of their power they each 'bring to the table'.

    KO power or not, I think he will not prevail against Hopkins. Hopkins is too ring savvy, has a lot of lateral movement, is slick, and scuppers opponents best work.
