    Not necessarily in that order but those 15 are all worthy of being rated as the best punchers at 160 for sure.

    Very solid list aside from that utter bum Graziano. I would add Darcy, Walker, Garcia.

    It's only a rough draft, Graziano had power if little else.Garcia might be worthy of a place.I can't see the other 2.


    GGG?

    Yes he had a great left hook ,I was ringside when he fought Bob Coolidge .He landed on Coolidge and you could hear the wallop ,Coolidge was out before he hit the ground.
    The headline was ,"Sibbo Ices Coolidge!"

    A great list but I would have found room for Bennie Briscoe.

    golovkin is overrated like hell as puncher, check his kos, the most of time he has to hit once and again and again to stop people.and he remembers me to marciano sometimes the way to hit

    Rubin Carter could crack. Damn near murdered Florentino Fernandez and stopped Emile Griffith in one. Mickey Walker hurt much bigger men with his hook, so I could imagine him placing.
