Who is the Best KO artist near Middleweight?

Joeyzagz · 12:55 PM

Middleweight/Supermiddleweight are definitely my favorite weightclasses right now. Stacked from top to bottom with great finishers.

EDIT Kessler desrves to be up there too.

Active fighters?

If not...
Marvelous Marvin Hagler

Tom Cruise

Artur Abraham surely deserves a mention? He might be slow and plodding but he damn sure hits hard!

There really arent any. Id have to go with Martinez if im forced to choose by "what have you done for me lately". Jr has one of the hardest heads in boxing and took soe monster shots. Up until that fight Martinez was canning guys.

Heavy Hitter

I'll vote for Martinez here. He has been getting a lot of KO's the last 2-3 years. Marked up Chavez JR. pretty good in that last fight as well.

Interested in seeing what Golovkin does this year. He looks to be a KO puncher.

Chavez Jr was literally seconds away from KOing Sergio. His future is bright.

I wouldnt say that but he has improved. He did get pummled for 11 rounds first. Nothing special about that. I classify him in the "we'll see" category with someone like Danny Garcia.

Mike Haynes

Chavez Jr. was a Cruiserweight fighting Middleweights so of course he's gonna have a hard head. I would say Kelly Pavlik on that list, and add Kessler....I think GGG is pulling a Felix Trinidad with the funny wraps.

Sergio Martinez.
