    Stronger doesn't mean powerful, Moore always said Curtis Sheppard was the hardest puncher he faced.

    Yeah but before fight with Marciano because he was egoistic which is normal.
    But in every interview since 60s he always said Marciano is the strongest/hardest puncher he faced and mentioned that in every interview since 60s.

    He did have that hypothesis.

    I think that Dempsey was the better finisher though!
