A straight right from Hearns should be up there pretty high on anyones list as the hardest punch P4P.

P4P hardest punchers of all time....

Willie Pep had a string of seven consecutive wins by stoppages over a period of five months in 1946 before he figured in a plane crash, including 9 KDs in a fight against Jackie Graves that ended in the 8th round. Also, someone who hadn't seen Pep fight anyone before and after facing Young Junior watched Pep dispose of Junior in the first round with a left to the jaw followed by a right to the very same spot, would have been terribly difficult to convince that Pep was featherfisted.

Can't help but notice though that you have Marciano all over your place on there. Pep's being best pound-for-pound ever in your own eyes still does not do it for you, obviously.

[QUOTE=RockyMarcianofan00]Um What?
Yes, Um, what...You've got Marciano's name, and Marciano's pictures and he's not even your pound-for-pound best. You said you think Pep is, all-time; though, earlier you had Henry Armstrong, as sleazyfellow showed.
So, yes, Um, what? Are you saying your favorite is not the one you consider to be the best?
And while we're at talking about who's the best, who do you really think is the best? Pep? Armstrong? Or...
You've got underneath your name, "The Rock of his Time" (underscoring supplied). Are we to take it to mean that he's not the Rock of other times and Pep is because, at a time, for you, he's the best of "All time"? Or, Armstrong perhaps is, because, at another time you chose him to be your best "All-time"?
Pray tell, at exactly what time does one become, to you, the best "All-time"?
If you should be generous to provide an answer, we shall thus be guided in our future conduct with you.Last edited by grayfist; 06-04-2006, 06:44 AM.

better start at the top
I never said Henry Armstrong or Rocky Marciano were P4P the best. What did say was that Willie Pep was P4P the best fighter, Rocky Marciano was P4P The hardest hitter , and that Henry Armstrong I was going to look into because he was a good fighter.
Got it?
Rocky Marciano is called the Rock of his times. Its a nickname just like the Brockton Blockbuster and "the Rock". I'm not 100% sure of the reason he's called this. This doesn't mean he's not an all time great-and for you to say that is pretty ****** because i've never heard anyone say that. Its also the name of Marciano's biography -
Which I'm borrowing from my friend and reading this summer.
Ok any other questions?
