Those guys could flash the speed and skill but when they needed to slug it out they'd slug it out.
Nice set
Hearns is another
Morales. I think he had a +90% ko ratio at 122
Louis
Arguello
Foster
Langford
Re: Masterful Boxers who could bang (boxer-puncher)
Orlando Canizales was the first to come to mind. Jose Napoles, Antonio Esparragoza. Too Sharp Johnson. Ricardo Lopez would knock you retarded while painting a museum piece.

Felix Trinidad, not just a banger.
Re: Masterful Boxers who could bang (boxer-puncher)
Joe Louis is the original boxer-puncher.

Re: Masterful Boxers who could bang (boxer-puncher)
Ricardo Lopez was the consummate boxer puncher. Beautiful to watch in the ring and his technique was textbook worthy. Kennedy McKinney, Junior Jones and Terry Norris were all great boxer punchers in addition to those already named (Lewis, Hearns...etc.). One thought (take it for what it's worth!): James Toney was more of a boxer-puncher at middle and super middle as he had the speed and length necessary to box behind the jab and the power to score legit stoppages. James Toney the light heavy up to heavy was a great defensive specialist who had superior hand speed and would counter punch guys into frustration/submission.

Forgot Michael Carbajal. He was another guy I would add to the list. Maybe Azuma Nelson also.
