Who are the best Finishers in the Sport?

[soul_survivor]

Chocolatito imo.

Kov and GGG are the best punchers, but to have the KO ratio that RG does in the weight class he is in is pretty crazy and a good indication of his ability as a finisher.

Tbh, you can have Kov, GGG and RG in any order and I'd agree with it. Plus, all these guys get KOs behind very good boxing skills.

David Haye

[New England]

other than gennady golovkin?

Tough between Golovkin and Gonzalez...
I'd go for Gonzalez

Gonzalez and it isn't even close.

Lewis was ok...he couldn't finish off a mentally disturbed McCall or a shot Tyson without Manny screaming in his ear. A great finisher has a natural instinct to hurt and end the fight, Lewis never did. If we're talking prime heavyweights then Tyson and Foreman are levels above Lewis in the finishing department.

McCall was tough as a bull.. The guy has never been KO'ed before & was known for his toughness.. Lewis like Wlad did not have a great chin, He always played it like chess, but when he hurt his opponents he was always gone for the kill.. Thats what separates him from Wlad & I remember even Manny said the same about him in some interview.. Tyson was a good finisher in his short span of prime, but was shot to bits later, but still a tough guy to knock easily over..

David Haye

Agreed.

He's an excellent puncher. Never gets excited and smothers his work when he has them hurt.

That's why i still think he's a dangerous fighter. He has great power and if he hurts a fighter, i don't think they're getting let off the hook.

I'm not questioning why Lewis couldn't stop McCall but even when Lewis could see McCall breaking down, he refused to throw punches. That's what I'm talking about. Manny literally screamed at him and eventually Lewis realised what his hands were for.

A good finisher doesn't need any encouragement to throw punches.

Haye is a solid puncher and solid finisher. I'd rate him highly at hw again if he'd beat a top guy. Thing is, as a finisher right now, is he better than any of the guys in the short list?

other than gennady golovkin?

I'd have Kovalev higher, then GGG and then RG.

They are the trinity of KO in boxing at this moment.
