Which 175ers punched as hard as Beterbiev?

Bob Foster for a start.

 

I haven't seen much of him, but the following were huge punchers at 175lbs.
Foster
Moore
Langford
Fitzsimmons
Choynski


Very good punchers would also include
Kovalev
Stevenson
Delaney
Berlenbach
Durelle
McAvoy
Fox
Satterfield
Marshall
Murphy

 

Stipe Drews.

 

What makes you think Prieto was ridiculously tough?

 

Cloud was pretty tough, Beterbiev ended him. Beterviev's power is pretty legit but he's at the point where everyone but the real top guys are too easy for him. So we won't see him tested probably until he gets in there with Ward, Kovalev...etc.

 

Michael Moorer was a destroyer at LHW

 

Yeah. He obviously has power but it's hard to get a gauge on him since he hasn't really fought anybody at the top. I'd favor him over Stevenson and Smith right now. Not Ward or Kovalev.

 

Michael Spinks and Matthew Saad Muhummad .

For sure. I just would like to see him against a top level opponent. Guys might look dangerous against non elite opponents but things can change at top level.

 

Adding to Spinks and Saad i find EMM one of the most underrated punchers at 175 ever. Three massive hitters there at the same time.

Charles always gets underrated in the 175 power stakes. The way he sparked Moore among numerous other things puts him in the mix.

 

Yes, I forgot him!
