If anyone cares to remember Oscar said that the punches weren't that hard & he wished Pacman had the power to put him away. Devastating punchers are like Julian Jackson that can sleep a fighter with 1 shot, while leaning on the ropes. Pacman is a fabulous combination puncher with respectable power.

Mosley: Never been stopped before or since, Pacquiao was only the 2nd man to put him down.
Margarito: Was only stopped by Mosley before, and was stopped by Cotto but down to the damaged eye. Pacquiao could well have stopped him but visibly eased off in the last two rounds. Margarito was also weight drained against Mosley and had just been caught cheating.
Clottey: Teak tough, never been stopped before or been close to being stopped. He also covered up for the 12 rounds because he feared Pacquiao's power.
Cotto: Very good chin, above 140 his chin has held up very well, only took knees against Margarito. Pacquiao put him down and put him down hard with the 2nd KD. After that he got on his bike and just tried to survive.

The answer is no.
Does SRR have no power becaue he couldn't put Lamota with one punch?
Is Tyson feather fisted because Holyfield walked through his shots?
Pacquiao is the biggest puncher at welterweight and Tim Bradley will find out that next week.

i always thought pac had 1-punch KO power at lower weights... but at welter, he has respectable power, but i think his speed and angles are the main factors to his knockdowns/KOs at welter.
at 147 & 154, he seems to overwhelm his opponents with accumulation of punches instead of turning the lights out with 1 punch.
