being that i dont really have any interest in boxing under 135 so i wouldnt know about any of those guys
i couldnt think of a fighter with 1 punch knockout today besides heavyweights.. i would say tarver but he looked horrible and tired in his last fight vs hopkins..i think corraleses power is overrated..i cant think of anybody
W 46 (41 ko's) | L 3 | D 0 | Total 49
This Guy he is curently IBF champ
He is a hard puncher mate, shame about the chin lol.
I think Vic Darchinyan, Jorge Arce and David Haye are the 3 hardest p4p punchers
valero is a monster. most of the fight is 1 round tko. but still fresh, needs more decent opponents (like mosquera)....
i'd go for winky, pac and rafa.
I haven't seen Cory Spinks or Paulie Malignaggi mentioned, two of the most brutal punchers the sport will ever see........
you obviously haven't seen Chris Byrd fight.
that was one hell of a shot. :boxing:
same with me, Diego Corrales, Pac, Darchinyan, well I've never seen Valero fights but I read lots of reviews about him being a power puncher.
I think a common answer should be Edwin Valero if you just using common sense. 20 wins, 20 KOs, that's 100% KO. Though when we go into the more technical level and elite. I'd say, Diego, KT, Darchinyan, and Rocky Juarez. They can end a fight they are losing with 1 punch. Whether they land it or not is another story cough*Juarez*cough. Reason I didn't say Manny or Cotto is because they haven't KOed anyone cold in awhile. They beat you down until you basically submit via TKO.
Valero may prove to be. He has been taking out people with single shots...and pretty early all of the time, too, save one: Mosquera. And, even Mosquera fell twice in the very first round.
Mosquera of course KD'd Valero too (in the 3rd) making his chin suspect in the eyes of many. But chin and power are two distinct facets of fighters.
Here's hoping the Venezuelan rachets up the quality of his opposition soon (he may have to do so given that he has to defend his title) so that we can know with a higher degree of assurance that he does (or doesn't) have the type of power that awesome wins at the lower levels indicate.
On top of that hope are two others: he soon gets licensed in the US and have his fights on TV.
If Jeff Lacy had improved his skills he may well have knocked out every opponent. He headhunted Joe Calzaghe all night and missed virtually every punch. I suppose his so called trainer forgot to mention that would happen. As to whether Lacy will plug the holes in his style is anybody's guess.
