    Joe Louis was the best finisher.

    Yes Louis had the combo`s and hand speed like Ray but also more one punch power too.

    His mentality mostly. He was in there to knockout his opponents. It was all buisness.

    He's one of them for sure. Him and Joe Louis are the first two that come to mind when I read finishers.

    He's certainly in the conversation. I think Louis is tops per the way ETM elaborated. SRL was a heckuva finisher too.
