If Mayweather, Ward, or Whitaker had one punch KO power???

Then they probably wouldn't fight the way they did tbh.

Consistently knocking guys out and fighting like Mayweather/Ward/Whitaker don't really go together.

My

Someone with a brain in boxingscene, is that possible. Green K. Floyd, Ward, Whitaker with one ko power is IMPOSSIBLE. These guys willingly reduce the power and commitment they put to their punches to stay elusive, be more precise and don't go off balanced like idiots. Many people with one punch ko power are not good defensively because they commit so much to their punches that they get open, off balance and are wide open to counters and then... get destroyed by guys like Ward, Floyd and WhitakerLast edited by Jcsuper; 05-18-2013, 01:03 PM.
