Hardest hitter p4p?

No118y ago

Who do you guys think is the hardest hitter pound for pound in the world today and why? I'd proberly say for 1 punch ko power it's definatly pacman, but for continual pain and hurt i'd go for cotto as he can't hurt you with one punch but when he throws combinations it's gona knock you out. :boxing:

honorable mention for john ruiz. hardest hugger p4p......all time. henry akinwande 2nd place.

18y ago

hardest hitter? David haye.... or prehaps the great tye fields!

18y ago

David Tua would get my vote!!! very intelligent post and poster. i knew i liked you for some reason. ha ha ha

18y ago

David Tua would get my vote!!!

18y ago

manny is a strong puncher but his power seems more like knockdown power than knockout power to me. he has amazing handspeed and he comes at you in bunches and from a southpaw stand to boot. he has good power but i wouldn't say he hit the hardest. it's just you don't see his punches sometimes and those are the ones that get you on our back.

18y ago

wlad klitschko david haye kelly pavlik edison miranda kermit cintron there's more Miranda's power is over rated. When you talk about power you have to think what top fighters they have KOed with that power. Miranda hasn't KOed any top 10 fighter. Pavlik, Haye and Klitschko all have though...

18y ago

wlad klitschko david haye kelly pavlik edison miranda kermit cintron there's more

18y ago

Pavlik and Miranda both have power. David Haye, Wlad Kiltschko, Ponce de Leon, Manny Pac, Kermit...

18y ago

.....Pauli..

PACMAN:chomp: :chomp: :chomp: :chomp:

18y ago

Haye. Gotta be.

18y ago

One punch power has to be Pac. Others have 1 punch KO power and demonstrated it against OK and good fighters. However, Pac has demonstrated his power against great fighters with excellent chins. No one can say that Morales, Barrera or JMM had suspect chins and many of there fans (myself included) would even say that Morales, Barrera and JMM had very good chins but even there fans knew (or feared) that any of those fights could end with 1 punch.

18y ago

I'd say probably Edison Miranda. He destroys people. Haye and Valero hit hard too.

18y ago

Edwin Valero, Kelly Pavlik or David Haye. Pick 'em

Got to be the Hayemaker.

Wladimir Klitschko is the hardest p4p puncher...End of Thread.
