Is Stewart Wrong For Saying Juarez hits harder than Pacquiao?

[oldgringo]

dude, that was like 16 left hands in a row, even though most didn't land, i've never seen that.

guzman would have ****en murdered that fraud harrison. ****EN MURDERED HIM.

Guzmans hands are quick as **** now that he is fighting at higher weights.

I don't think his power was ever anything special...he was just knocking fools out because he was 2x as big but just drained down to 122.

Manny_P, you have to take into consideration, knocking down fighters isn't just about punching power. You cannot compare Juarez and Pacquiao's power solely based on the fighters they knocked down.

Even if you're the hardest hitting fighter in the world, if you can't land ****, then you won't knockdown anybody. It takes other skills besides punching power to knockdown a fighter, especially elite fighters.

Floyd Mayweather knocked down Corrales 100 times not because of his punching power, but because of his accuracy and overall skill(add Corrales' chin to that as well ).

I think Steward was talking more so about 1 punch KO power. I think Rocky definitely packs that more than Manny. Manny has KOed everyone from accumulation of punches Hatton style rather than 1 punch KO. Although he did have afew exceptions of 1 punch KO in the past. I think punch for punch Rocky hits harder though Manny makes up for it with his speed. As they say, speed kills and it's more so true with Manny who does already carry pop in his punch. Though if they both hit a bag or something that could measure the pressure of punch(Rocy 4 style), I think Rocky would win it. Especially if Manny isn't allowed to lunge with the shot.

what's a better way of deciding who hits harder than comparing performance of these two (Pac and Juarez) against the same opponents in example, Velasquez and Barrera? I'd like to know what's the other way to decide who hits harder.

WARNING WARNING - These fights were at 2 different weight classes when each fought him so that can't be taken into a measurement. Need more clue? Hector could probably hold a shot better at 126lbs than at 130lbs.

you don't think Pac would have KOed Velasquez at 126lbs either way?

....Wow, the numbers in this poll speak for themselves.

pacquaio is just more consistent with his punches and they all hurt. But if they were both to throw one left hook with power, I think juarez hits harder.

[Manny_P]

I think I'd rather take Juarez's left hook on the chin than Pac's straight punch.

He said this during the fight last Saturday. He said that Pac's punches are weaker than Juarez's because you can see it coming and he also said that Pac only throws 1-2's despite praising Pac's adjustment in the 2nd fight against Terible last February. I basically think Stewart don't know what he's talking about. That or he's in love with Juarez or likes discrediting Pac all the time.

Pls vote and discuss.

its "steward" do you even watch boxing or are you just illiterate?

[GTL]

I just think sometimes that Stewart discredits Pac. Stewart dislikes those slugging fighters who forgets about the school of boxing. Stewart hates Mayorga and I bet he doesn't appreciate what Pac does in the ring. He said in the 2nd fight of Morales vs Pac that the adjustment of Pac was amazing and in this Juarez vs Barrera fight, he again insisted that Pac only throws 1-2s in the fight. This guy sucks.

i dunno about that.

Pac isn't a great "boxer".. u kno what i mean? hes a great fighter with speed and incredible combinations. JMM gave him a bit of a boxing lesson. Pac always comes foward (usually a good thing) but he isn't too good at fighting backwards.

u really want to kno who stewart was discrediting? shane mosley wen he fought vargas. he said shane isn't much of a boxer. "i always saw him as a flurry fighter rather than a boxer".

neway, stewart knows what he's talking about.

juarez has one punch KO power. pac has the power to break you down (accumulation)
