I think that you can have all the power in the world, but if you can't land a clean shot it doesn't mean nothing. Both Peter and Rahman couldn't land clean punches in their recent bouts against Klitscho and Toney.
Muhammad Ali didn't have the hardest punches but was able to KO some of his greatest opponents because of his pin point accuracy.
rahman doesnt hit not nearly as hard as people claim. he hasnt knocked out a credible opponent since lewis, and couldnt even KD a blown up middleweight. 15 of his fights have already gone the distance.
does rahman hit hard? yes.
is rahman the hardest hitter in the division? **** NO. peter is.

and what evidence do you have for suggesting this?
and what evidence do you have for suggesting this?
brutal KOs, a HUGE left hook, consistent KOs (something rahman has a lot of trouble with), and a reputation and label as the most dynamic puncher in the division.
its not just the evidence to prove this, its the lack of evidence to the contrary.

so Rahman knocking out a bum with a jab isn't as impressive as Peter knocking out a bum with a couple right hands and a left hook?
