More Powerful Puncher: Manny Pacman Pacquiao OR Sugar Shane Mosley?

[kymira]

Manny may dish out more accumulative damage, but 1 punch power goes to SSM hands down. There should be no debate.

Prince Hamed has more power!!! and better dance moves

[Dempsey-Roll]

Who do you believe is the more powerful puncher - Manny Pacquiao or Shane Mosley?

They're both strong punchers but Mosley had the KO power and Manny has that quick sharp power.

Manny has had success against guys who shell up and just take unjustified beatings, but when someone is fighting back fewer and fewer of his punches land because he doesn't have the luxury of beating on a still target and he's forced to be more careful. You saw that in the Marquez and Morales fight.

Mosley on the other hand could land one upside the head and have you asleep.

Pacquiao might be a POUND FOR POUND harder puncher, but comparing straight up Mosley is a much harder hitter.

IMHO this is the best reply to this question and would second this ...

I agree with the dance move but power bro? Hmaed punch never been tested outside FW ...

Mosley, not even close.

Mosley really loads up and puts everything he's got in those killer shots though.

He leaves himself way open when he does that and sometimes he even jumps into the swing when driving the shot home. He's a big, fast and strong welter and naturally the effects would be devastating when he connects solidly against an easy target (someone like Cotto wasn't such an easy target for him...hehe).

That's not how Pac punches. He doesn't go all-out with power especially when he's stringing up punches in a multi-angled combination. You rarely generate one-punch KO oomph like that but you have more chance of landing a punch your opponent can't see. Just look how differently they punched Margacheato to oblivion.

Closest Pac loaded up his punch like Shane does was the final punch on Hatton's jaw. He sat on his haunches, feet firmly planted and unloaded a single fully leveraged shot and we all saw the devastating result... but Pac rarely does that.

He's more methodical and would rather break his opponents down through accumulation, you know... make them go through the meat grinder with 30+ power punches per round...like torture.

Pacs power is more natural. By that i mean his punches flow better, whereas SSM is more robotic and loads up. Every punch Pac throws is hurtful naturally.....basically he is a better puncher, better offensively.

If you dont understand that, lets say SSM power is on a scale of 1-10 a number 8 powerwise. Pac is a 7 but his punches come more naturually and can come from either hand.
