    Show me any fighter today, who specializes in body punching? There are none! Not at the intensity of a peak Ricky Hatton. 'In some aspects Hatton offense was great, there is no denying that'.

      Many of those named. But I am surprised Aaron Pryor's name didn't come up.

              To be considered a great finisher you must be able to adapt!
              Positioning, to set up your best punches, to be able to fool your opponents into calmness. Light power to set up big power is the easiest ploy! Archie Moore was very good at this design.
              Surgar Ray Robinson to me is the greatest of all time when it comes to the "set up"!

                  - -Wasn't Young Stribling 2nd in all time KOs?

                  In spite of dying prematurely in a ****** motorcycle accident?

                  Hmmm, something to ponder.

                    yeah and Wee Willie Keeler was the record holder for hitting streak before Dimaggio SO?

                    neither detracts from the greatness of the guy on top.

                    And Billy Byrd has the most KO's anyway allegedlly.
