Decent list but a few guys could be switched for each other. Abraham should be on the list for sure IMO.
The Ten Biggest Punchers in Boxing Today

I was thinking the same thing. Vitali isn't much of a big puncher either, he wears fighters down. Edison Miranda, Randell Bailey and Aurther Abraham would make my list before Vitali, Cotto, or Pac.Pacquiao is not a hard puncher.
Aside from Hatton, who else has he basically laid out like that?
Nobody.
Barrera took his best for 23 rounds.
Morales did for 25 rounds.
Marquez did for 24 rounds.
Oscar did for 8 rounds.
If anything Pacquiao (much like Pavlik, who is also on the list) is a "wear you down" type of fighter.
Not a big puncher at all.
Not in league with guys like Wladimir, Vitali, Valero, Darchinyan, and Lopez, anyway.
At least not in my opinion.Comment

I agree but only on 126 and above. Below, no ... because I saw him losing his way on several fights but would land just 1 punch and the tide would be turned on his favor.Pacquiao is not a hard puncher.

But I think he is heavy handed plus the accumulation of punches leading to the KO is due to the sheer volume of power punches released in a short time.
I was hoping Tua would be included.Comment

Good list. I would take out Vitali & Darchinyan and add in Ricardo Torres though.Comment

That is a good list if we are talking exclusively about 1 punch ko power, Would mention Haye and Wlad though.Comment
