Who is the hardest puncher in WelterWeight History?

[Luilun]

Definitely Hearns.

He laid out a better fighter than any of the rest of them. No-one would ever put Duran out in his career, even in his late '40s. Especially not like that.

But take a look at that Ko Duran had his hands down not expecting a punch and Hearns took advantage of that. Duran fought a bigger puncher Iran Barkley and he was never dropped. It was just perfecting timing hands down Bam !

This is correct, Duran hadn't braced for that punch. How you have Trinidad instead of Carmen Basillo and Ray Leonard is crazy. And Robinson hit harder than Hearns

Trinadad needs to be removed from the list cause he's questionable like Margarito of loading the wraps. After his scheme was revealed by Hopkins he just became an average Joe who was out boxed by Winky Wright for 12 rounds and it took him about 1000 punches just to drop an out of shape undisciplined Mayorga, Hell even an unknown Cherrieff went 12 rounds with him

no he didn't, actually it was pure domination and KO in the 4th.

As for the wraps thing, it was nothing like Margarito.

0-2 bro.

Robinson won over 100 fights by Knock Out, enough said!

Bredis ****ing prescott or Maidana and its not even close

KO % does not always =Punching Power.

Vitali got a higher KO % than almost any other ATG HW.. But he have no where near the one punch power of even Lewis or Wlad much less Foreman..

floyd. he laid out the young lion ortiz!

Hearns was the most Dominant welterwight in history.

The hardest puncher, I have to give it to Trinidad.

Hearns KO'd Duran after a 15 round beating from Hagler, who is by the way an ATG puncher.

What also makes me vote for Trinidad is the KO's of Campas and Mayorga. People might argue with this, but those men had chins of steel in their prime, they hadn't been beat up, and he annihilated them.

Dont know about that one but he was the hardest puncher

[boliodogs]

I voted Trinidad because he is my favorite fighter but I have no problem with Hearns getting the most votes because nobody hits harder at 147 than Hearns. I have Hearns and Trinidad a tie. Hearns hit harder than Trinidad with the right hand and Trinidad hit harder than Hearns with the left hand. They both were great punchers with either hand. Robinson was also a great puncher with both hands.Cuevas had a huge left hook but his right was just ok.

Hearns was by far
