    In the lower weight divisions, I'm sure that Pacquiao was the harder puncher, but I actually think that above 135, Marquez was the much harder puncher (especially after he linked up w/ Memo Heredia).

    Bradley spoke of the "snap" in Pacquiao's punches and Mayweather described it as a "weird power". When Bradley was asked about Marquez's power, "heavy-handed" and "bricks" was his response.

    Discuss.

    Mayweather spoke highly of Pacquiao power never heard him say anything about Marquez's power. Also Pac hurt Margarito who was much bigger and has an excellent chin.

    Marquez has great timing and is an amazing counterpunch.. hes never been known to be a devastating puncher but anyone who gets hit with a perfectly timed counter can go to sleep. So decent power plus the skills but no I dont think he was.

    We're talking about the Weapon-Mex program that JMM went through.

    Floyd's a better counterpuncher than JMM. Timing and accuracy. He ain't slept Pac, did he?

    And that's silly. Why do you think his nickname is Dinamita? He made Robby Pedin vomit in his corner from body shots.

    He didn't speak highly of Pac's power. Only thing I've heard is the "weird power" comment.

    And Pac wasn't that big of a puncher... Because he landed 400+ flush bombs on Tony and couldn't get him out of there.

    Less power. Fighters weren't as scared of him, which allowed him to connect with big shots as opposed to Pac's opponents by that time who just shelled up. But not more powerful. Had Pac fought Katsidis and Diaz at 135 when Marquez did, they also aren't seeing the distance. And they have less success along the way, too.

    Pacquiao had the speed and power volume punching. Marquez the thudding heavy power.

    It's the speed that the weird thing Mosley talked about he hits you with fast punches that make you blurry.

    When he was asked about McGregor power he said it wasn't on the same level as the big hitters he fought mentioned Pac, Cotto, Maidana and maybe Zab or Shane can't remember.

    Its always frustrating to see people underrate JMMs power. The guys nickname is dynamite and literally has the same KO percentage as Pacquiao.

    Dinamita's power has always been underrated, while Pacquiao's nosedived from lightweight on up.
