[dino]

a few names that come to mind when i think of soft hitters are corey spinks, muhhamad ali (bob foster was quoted as saying "ali couldnt punch threw a paper bag")and william joppy who smacked his way to UD'S

As of right now id say Byrd.
Spadafora and Dorin never looked like they had hard punches.

Ali had deceptive power. By no means was he is Foreman or Shavers league but his right hand had enough to keep you honest.

Softest Hitters are Chris Bryd, Sven Ottke, Pernel Whitaker and Jake LaMotta (His power is WAY overrated).

Yo Chris Byrd is the softest puncher to hold a title period...

if anything, Ali was an underrated hitter...not saying he was a bomber because he didn't commit to his punches like Foreman and Tyson...but he COULD hurt you due to his speed (as a HW) and accuracy...no way could I support that statement by Foster...

then again I have never been hit by Ali

[Derranged]

Chris Byrd, or at least the softest hitting HW champ.

How about Pernell Whitiker. There are so many. Henry Maske ( IBF light heavyweight champ ) Barry Jones ( welsh fighter who held the WBO super featherweight title, retired now with only one KO in like nearly 20 fights ).
