With the retirement of Sven Otke ( who had about 4-5 CARREER knockouts) who, among todays beltholders and contenders, would you say is p4p the wimpiest puncher around? Byrd? Spinx? If not them, who?

Whats worse for your self esteem? Having a 5 career KOs out of 30+ wins, or being KO'd by the guy with 5 career KOs out of 30+ wins?

The little 105lb super flyweight kid that looks like a 6th grader. The champ that fought on the undercard of Barrera/Morales, forgot his name.

Winky Wright isn't a big puncher...Oktay Urkal either.

It was Sven Ottke hands down but now i'm not so sure. For a champion Chris Byrd has been shy of KO's or even KD's recently.

I would have to say Chris Byrd...I can't remember the last time I seen him knock anyone down. Paul Spadafora and Malinaggi are pretty weak punchers too...

I agree. Mayweather doesn't have a one punch knockout power, but he still got some good power in his punches, that can either knock you down or hit you with some good combos that will lead to an eventual KO.

Ivan Calderon would be the weakest punching boxer.

Of course straw weight fighters are going to be weak punchers usually. They don't have any muscle mass or they'd weigh more. If they increase muscle, they increase weight.

Paulie Malignaggi would get my vote. Which a lot of it is mostly due to him breaking his hands every fight. I like Malignaggi, but he doesn't have a good punch. Spadafora and Dorin both were weak punchers. That's why I wasn't at all impressed with their wild brawl. It was a pillow fight, of course neither guy got knocked out.

Ivan Calderon is a straweight( 105 LB and lower) of course he isnt going to throw KO punches. He does have the WBC belt and has boxing skills.

My pick is spinks

Floyd has outstanding fighter. In all of his "big fights" I believe he has KO'd or TKO'd every fighter with the exception of Castillo.

Now if only Floyd stopped managing himself like He was DelaHoya.
