Matthysse and Golovkin p4p punching power

[Snake...]

Eh? Matthysse's opposition is way better than GGG's.

I'm not saying GGG doesn't hit harder than Lucas but that's not a very accurate way to look at it IMO.

Macklin is better then Pederson

macklin is a tough fighter..his two stoppage losses were in the later rounds (rounds 11 and 10 i think) and golovkin took him out in 3 and broke his rib with one shot...ishida never been stopped (out of his 8 losses) and fought good punchers like kirkland, pirog, williams, etc. and golovkin knocked him out COLD in 3. ouma had like 7 losses only one of them by stoppage (which was early on in his career) before being sent to the hospital by golovkin after their fight..proksa (was ranked in the top ten middleweights) had never been stopped before losing to golovkin..

golovkin hits so hard he has to spar light heavyweights and cruiserweights..sergei kovalev (one of the light heavyweights who sparred golovkin) said he hits like a sledgehammer..

“He’s a f__king beast,” said Coyne, a 20-0 cruiserweight prospect who has recently dropped down to light heavyweight. “He’s been running guys out of here. Nobody under 175 pounds will spar with him.

“The dude can hit, I’m still getting used to it,” said Imoesiri, who like Coyne, is delightfully bright and articulate. “It’s crazy. I sparred with [undefeated WBA heavyweight beltholder] Alexander Povetkin and he never hurt me like this guy.

lucas = lights out 1-punch power
GGG = heavy pounding power

lucas can turn a fight around with 1 punch, GGG seems to completely obliterate and crumble opponents after a few rounds.

his last two fights have ended with one punch knockouts. if he hit ishida, macklin, or any other MW on the planet with those shots in the first or the 12th they would go down. all he needs is one flush punch, with either hand, to the body or head.


both are two of the hardest punchers on the planet. they also go about punching the right way, unlike the randall bailey's of the world, and know how to force exchanges or put a guy on the ropes.

matthysse is the more proven puncher. peterson was a durable guy with a decent resume @ 140, and he was completely destroyed. that said, alexander and judah finished the fight. both are durable guys, though, and better than anybody golovkin has fought.

golovkin is also bigger. the bigger you get the easier it is to hurt people of your size.

weight wise GGG has heavier hands of course lol

but if were talking about whos a bigger puncher in their own weight i cant tell yet
but i can give u something to think about

GGGs
Proksa KOed - never been down never been koed b4 GGG
Ishida KOed - never been down never been koed

Matthyeses
Peterson KOed - went down vs bradley, never been KOed b4 matthese
Alexandar Knockdown - never been down b4 matthese, fight went 12 rounds

in addition to matthyse: judah went doggy dance againts KT, and vs Amir TKO but againts lucas went full 12 no KD

i dunno if this helps

Macklin is better then Pederson

No he's not. He lost against any good fighter he faced and at 30 he never had a world title. Hes average to say the least. GGG is outstanding but we cant say he's faced champions yet because he hasnt.

Golovkin is the the bigger puncher.

Great debate-- Great thread

1. Both are hard hitters, no doubt about it..

2. Lucas is a wild puncher, drops bombs but he is slightly more skilled version of a prime mayorga,, He has big power but alot are wide looping shots....

3. GGG is much more technical boxer, and is much more precise with his shot selection.. He reminds me of a prime chavez in the way he is so economical with his punches...

4. I gotta go with GGG being the better puncher... Power is about equal but GGG is more technical, and i think if he fought alexander and judah he would have stopped both while lucas knocked them down and got robbed..

Klitchko does. Different weight! We have a P4P punching power now? P4P has also gone weird. Basically P4P means My Favourite Fighters.

Mattheus swings from his heels. I'd say he's much more of a 1 punch KO artist than anybody today.

Iguana Man v. Good Boy.

Both are killas!!

[boliodogs]

They are very close in punching power in my opinion. Both of them have one punch power and powerful combinations. Both of them have a variety of different knock out punches with both hands to the body or the head. Both of them are always on the attack and looking for the KO and their KO percentage shows they almost always get the KO. Both of them take a punch very well and have never been knocked down or even staggered that I am aware of. They are both fearless, relentless KO artists that most fighters do not want to fight. For one punch power I give GGG a slight edge.
