On Moore, the damage done to his brain was caused by whiplash after his head bounced off the bottom rope when Ramos KO him.
Moreno wasn't exactly a world class boxer and whenever he did step up to world level he got beat which takes away from him, obviously, but he was a huge puncher, his record is 60 wins 59 by KO, the one that wasn't by KO was a DQ win.Last edited by NChristo; 07-07-2011, 07:21 AM.

i'm still wondering why the **** olivares (pronounced "Olives" according to my autocorrect ^ ^ ) is in the top ten of your list
he's not a top ten punching FW
he's a top 5 punching BW, though.
he was a solid puncher at 26, but did his power really carry to the top ten of the FW division is what you have to ask yourself
the answer is clearly no
and on to erik morales...
wasn't even a terrific puncher.
he was a good hard puncher and a worker who had to break guys down and use his boxing skills and stamina
but he was NOT a power puncher in this context and doesn't belong ANYWHERE CLOSE to the top ten.
and this is coming from a guy who pitches a tent de pantalon every time erik morales is throwin down
for context,
juanma lopez was a much harder puncher at 122, and 126 than morales
he couldn't// cant do much with it, because his idea of sound defensive performance is taking punches on the chin but staying upright and banging his gloves together, and he also doesn't have morales' chin
but he's a harder puncher than morales could ever hope to be.
and not a top ten FW puncher in simple power punching terms.
if you aren't going to see it you aren't going to see it
like magic eye
but you're wrong if you think morales or olives are top ten FW punchers
or olivares

Wilfredo Gomez shouldn't rank anywhere on anyone's best punchers at 126. At 122, he's one of the best punchers ever...but at Feather, he KO'd no one of note, and in fact wasn't even that successful when you think about it.
