Your list doesn't have Danny Lopez on it so it is incomplete. Just look at his KO record, or better yet, watch some actual footage of him. Saldivar and Pedroza were more talented fighters, but they didn't hit nearly as hard as Little Red.

Pastrano

Ok, I guess you are both right...Danny Lopez must be included.

manny pacquiao, if you are counting 122 and 130 as "fw"
he had a good run at or around fw, without having a ton of fights at the specific weight.

4 lbs
close enough. back in the day he would have spent a good deal of time fighting at FW against the mexican three, etc.

and olivares doesn't belong there
his best punching was done at BW

and morales was a good puncher
but not a top ten all time puncher

but good looking list
lots of warriors on that list

edit: gomez is perhaps the greatest hitter ever at 122, and could certainly get a mention here at 126
dude could flat out bomb with either hand

Armstrong was a terrific puncher at any weight, featherweight included.

I don't remember McGuigan being a destructive puncher. Although it was a long time ago.
