    Adam etches
    Chris Eubanks jr
    Gary O'sullivan
    John ryder
    Martin Murray

    Murray has fought at a much higher level than any of these, dropped martinez stopped a green Blackwell.
    Etches seems to be packing serious 1 punch power but has only fought journeymen
    Eubanks jr was struggling to roll over journeyman ww's but now looks like he could pack a punch stopping chudinov and rocking Saunders a bit
    John ryder has heavy hands but not particularly explosive needs to step up. Nice left hand ko of Godoy though.
    O'sullivan finished a decent fighter with a great uppercut and is on a ko streak over a few journeyman.

    Only Saunders would give murray problems out of the Brits. Let's see how etches does with khomisty though. I have a feeling he is packing very impressive power although he is crude and wild.

    None of them hit hard!

    Eubank Jr though has some one-punch sleep KO's, I can't recall the others having any.

    I'd love to see Murray put CEJ to sleep.

    don't think he'd stop CEJ but could certainly beat him on points, I think eubank has inherited his fathers chin looks solid

    Eubank is still developing. At the start of his career no one thought he was a puncher but he looked stiff and tense. When he started relaxing more he was getting proper knock outs. He had a huge jump in class against Saunders and. Chudinov but you can see he is adapting to this level now. Dropping back down in class of opponent to O'Sullivan he will be due another highlight stoppage win.

    O'Sullivan probably does hit hard but he also tries too hard. He wont hurt any workd class fighters because he wont get past their jab or deal with their movement. He will only look a puncher against journeymen.

    Taking the question literally. And answering it purely at face value. .ie who generates most power on a target...probably Spike.

    Factoring in who is the better boxer with the best all round delivery system for that power....hard to say. ( for example Spike completely failed to land his power on BJS ..whereas the light-punching CEJ landed plenty and even slightly hurt Saunders once or twice).

    One thing for sure CEJ is NOT a power puncher. No way. I can't believe this nonsense is still being repeated on here.

    If etches stops Khomitsky that would impress me.

    Well Nick Blackwell was well on his way to doing that, only for the fight being so short.....
