S.T.Gordon hit harder than Holy and Qawi i'd reckon for starters.

 

His smashing of the never previously stopped Carlos De Leon mainly. Granted he did little else and has no great power resume vs quite good fighters.

 

Doyou guys remember ST Gordon? He regurlarly knocked out heavyweights and Also knocked out Carlos Deleon(for the title) and stopped Yaqui Lopez.

 

John,

I got a nice story for ya.


"We matched Gerry against ST gordon in March 78. As the weighin Gordon says to him "You big white mother****er. Im going to beat you up. No white mans going to beat me." Gerry told him "You got a big mouth, lets see what happens in the ring." In the ring, Gerry hit him with a left hook in the second round. After that, the guy didn't stop running. In fact the ref bounced him( A fourth round Disqualification) for not fighting. Gerry was ticked. It was one of his first exposures on TV, and the guy wouldn't fight. He saw S.T later in a coffee shop at our hotel-almost went for him. "If you didn't want to fight, you yellow *******, you shouldn't have accepted the bout." Gerry told him. S.T said nothing. Gerry shut his mouth good"- Rappaport in Punch Lines by Phil Berger

 

Good story hahaha, i do remember the basics of it from back in that day.

 

S.T. Gordon was first on my mind. It could have been Cooper, but Cooper was pretty unmotived at Cruiserweight. He was pretty much unmotivated anyway.

 

Pretty obvious we do

 

Only two years behind, my friend:

 

Thats cause i didnt read the entire thread before i postedatsch I had just read the first page when no one mentioned ST Gordon.

 

Does Archie Moore qualify?

 

Surprised no one has mentioned Ezra Sellers...the man could really crack with the best of em.

 

Holyfield and Haye. Hide could have been, maybe will be.

 

If you wanna go way back...

Louis, Marciano, Dempsey, Patterson
