    Carlos Zarate
    he was really powerfull with more ko's in a row twice in his career, and one of the most under-rated boxers of all times...

      Zarate isn't underrated. He isn't extremely well known, but nobody goes around saying he can't fight. He is rated very highly among those who know him.

        Gerald Mclellan - if he hadnt got injured when fighting Benn the man would have gone down in history as one of the all time greats.

          I don't rate Zarate as highly as others do in all-time Bantamweight discussions, but the guy was certainly one hell of an all-around fighter...He could fight equally effectively from both the outside (nice workman-like jab & killer right cross) and inside (nasty hooks & uppercuts). And although his feet weren't all that quick, which made him susceptable to an elusive boxer, his hand speed was better than average I thought. But you know...I always saw Zarate as one of the very best finishers at the lower weights, and I don't think his power was quite at the top of the ladder. Sure the guy could throw bombs and if they landed, you were in some big trouble...but for pure one-punch power, I thought the other half of the "Z Boys" (Zamora) had the slight edge in that department.

              Gotta Say BIG George Forman. I just watched his fight with Frazier I again. He barely put weight behind those punches and Frazier still flew across the ring.

                myunksafied Gerald Mclellan - if he hadnt got injured when fighting Benn the man would have gone down in history as one of the all time greats.
                I agree with this, and Mclellan was an unbelievably powerful puncher, too. That fight was tragic, it's too bad that happened or Mclellan would surely be an all time great. His performance against Julian Jackson was excellent.
