calzaghe in his prime had vicious power..... hatton had and still has vicious power.... good choices...
I read just the first four pages.
I don't think Vitali is one of hardest punchers ANYMORE. He grinds his opponents into a TKO, but does not knock them down (anymore).
Haye, Solis, and Tua all put more effort into their punches, and regularly floor their opponents. I'd rank all three of them higher on pure punching power NOW. Vitali 2003 had more pop than any of the three, but not 2010.
Yeah people always say pacquiao has blazing speed, but i honestly dont see it that fast.......its his natural power......he can sacrifice form and technique and just throw some sloppy looking punches out with a bit more speed and still hurt his opponent.....emmanuel steward has commented a lot on it....that pac must have naturally heavy hands because his grazing shots that dot look all that still get him knockdowns....
he throws seemless combinations even when his opponent is turning. Throwing 4-7 punch combinations cross body is HARD dude
Look at that punch he floored Cotto with man. He was in motion, moving back and didn't even seem to fully commit to it and he nearly knocked him senseless.
Pacquiao has very heavy hands as well as a lot of speed and unpredictable angles in my opinion.

I don't see why people call Pacquiao a hard puncher. He's lightning fast, but nowhere near top 10 p4p hardhitter. Pacquiao speed will destroy almost anyone, not his power. But that's just my opinion.

yeah, the old saying is "it's the punch you don't see coming that will hurt you the most". Pac has good power but blazing speed in combintation

Bernard Hopkins
Bernard Hopkins? No way man. A great fighter but definitely not a hard puncher at all. I agree with your other two choices though.
