As much as I couldnt stand him, I think the obvious answer is Naz. Pac hits hard yeah, but he also has far more overall skill then the Prince ever had and also shocks fighters with speed. Naz got by ONLY because he had a huge punch. If Pac had to only rely on his punch he wouldnt have made it very far. Lucky for him he is a hell of a fighter, unlike the Prince who stepped up once, was outclassed, and then quit.

Pac has very good power, but Naz was one of those weirdo's. I mean he would really launch the little guys into the stratosphere with his punch, whereas Pac would mostly rely on accumulation.
I mean Barrera is knock-out-able. He was put down a number of times and was badly knocked out by Jones, and Pac caught him cleanly all night and he didn't go anywhere and was never even really hurt bad. He just couldn't fight back and didn't want to be there. The fact that he even put Barrera down shows he has serious power, but it's not the same as Naz's.
Nothing to get all wanky over though, as some Pac fans obviously have, looking at the poll. Naz was simply a harder puncher, but that is all. He wasn't a better fighter, boxer, slickster....he wasn't better at anything. He was just given more power by Allah!
ALLAH AHKBA!
As people have said, it is Pac's speed that hurts his opponents more than his power. When you can't see something it really hurts you. Even if you saw Naz's punch it still put you out.Last edited by BennyST; 06-28-2009, 06:48 AM.

My instinct is to say Naz, although pac seems to be carrying his power up through the weight classes so???
