    i think these people have a real problem in defining or determining superior punching power.

    either that or they don't like canelo alvarez.


    alvarez is not a massive 154 lb puncher. tito trinidad, julian jackson, tommy hearns, these are tnt punchers at 154. alvarez is the only true, career jr MW that mayweather has fought. he has what i'd call "good / very good" power.

    oscar was a very big puncher in his prime, but by the time he fought mayweather he had broken his hands so badly that he was reduced often to throwing flurries without sitting on punches.

    mosley hit mayweather with a couple of bombs. shane could always punch.

    and ortiz was a good puncher as well, if a complete bonehead.

    the alvarez that mayweather is about to fight punches harder than all three of those guys.

      Totally agree with this post. I don't get how Alvarez isn't the biggest puncher he's ever faced.

          [QUOTE=PAC-BOY;13705535]Cotto...****** at 154 had less power. and has been on the decline.
          Ortiz...He sucker punched him to win.
          Mosley old and past his prime.
          JMM was a blown up SFW lmfao...went up 3 divisions
          Hatton was slow and no good at 147. Couldnt even beat Collazo lol

          those are the Facts you over looked. Yes he faced guys that could pull the trigger, but not into their advantage.[/QUOTE

          Amazing!!!!! a Pac fan in a Floyd thread trolling. Plus Jmm was at lightweight. So that makes it two weight classes get your facts right.

            Oscar & Mosley by far, both had killer left hooks. I feel like most people here can't identify true power. Comparing Judah/Hatton to Oscar/Mosley in terms of power is a joke.

            Canelo will probably be the hardest puncher that Floyd has ever faced. The kid naturally has heavy hands, plus he is a very technically sound boxer with good speed.

              Baldomir was a piss weak puncher. He was known for being a very light puncher his whole career.

                    Baldomir couldnt bust a g**** in a fruit fight. He was lucky to get a KO.
