Two all time great punchers there. Guys like Valero shouldn't be named because they never fought anybody good. -

Another guy who sometimes get named in Max Baeur. Now, to be clear the two deaths are not the reason I mention Baer. If you look at Baeur's right it is indeed a very powerful shot. In fact, he was a sort of one trick poney and still had success against guys who were trying to avoid that punch. I would qualify Baer as a guy with one of the "hardest rights" in boxing, not necessarily one of the harder punchers per se and not necessarily one of the most accurate, ot technically accomplished, but....he had a cannonComment

Surprised that someone mentioned Edwin Valero over Pacquiao. He's up there for sure on my list.
Anyways, here's my take. Won't rank them though:
- Gerald McClellan
- Julian Jackson
- Bob Foster
- SRR
- Manny Pacquiao
- Joe Louis
- Sandy Saddler
- Alexis Arguello
- Wilfredo Gomez
- Roberto Duran
Wanted to stay away from the heavies as much as possible, but for a relatively small guy, Joe Louis had an awesome punch. Thought about including the likes of Tommy Hearns, Hagler, Monzon and some of the great middleweights of all times, but I think my ten is a pretty devastating list.Comment

What about Chavez and Barrera?Comment
-
They had good pop, especially chavez and his thudding straight right and left hook, but both were more the type of punchers to break you down and not one punch ko you like a hearns, foreman, tyson etcOriginally posted by Anthony342 View PostComment
