    David Tua outslugs just about anyone except for a few.

    I just think he deserves respect for something. He was gifted. And slugging was his thing.

    You guys should count him in this list aswell

      you dont get it, he aint a slugger just cause he hit hard, slugger is a style.

        You don't get it!Different people have different views on what a slugger is.In my eyes,someone who hits hard could be defined as a slugger.That makes sense to me!The title of the thread says slugger not brawler.People will have different interpretations of that.All i've been seeing is you analying everyone else's lists.And adding your two cents.Make a list or shut up!Your opinion means nothing to me.

          A slugger isn't someone who you have defined. A different view on it doesn't make it right. 2+2 equals 37; all because I say it doesn't make it correct.

                You said a different view on it doesn't make it right.Yet your saying that his and your view is the correct one.Does this rule only apply to me?I'll say it once more!I see his point in a slugger being a style.But I also think of a slugger as someone who can punch.If you can't understand that,OK!But it's my opinion.

                    Slugger(As defined in websters international dictionary)-One that strikes hard or with heavy blows.A.A prizefighter that punches hard but uses little defense(well you certainly have me there).My point being that were both right.A slugger is looked at in different ways.When I read the title,I thought of hard punchers as being sluggers.Which is only partialy correct.there is also the style factor even more so.We disagreed,but don't make it sound like my arguments had no basis.Just because it's your opinion(Chum)it doesn't make you automatically correct.
