He wasn't very skilled.
But he had insane power.
He even won a title. The commentator said..... unbelievably ........ is now the champion.
I cant remember his damn name.

What is his career span? The years fought? Late 80's? Early 90's?? Black, white, Hispanic, Caribbean descent, Asian? I mean... the way you said it it could be anyone?!!Quote:

My guess would be Bailey and the comments you heard were from Lampley after the Jones ko but most fans know who he is but newer fans of the sport most likely not. I wouldn't say he hits harder then Jackson but he's up thereQuote:

That is serious power. His only problem is he relies on it too much.
Those were like the 2 punches Bailey threw in that fight, Jones actually showed a chin to have only been completely rocked stupid and not comatosed by either of them. Perfect form, I think those shots would kill me.
Still do not think he hits harder than Jackson.Quote:

Well of course he doesn't, he's quite a bit smaller to boot. Jackson was also very fast which Bailey isn't, as far as mechanics Bailey hits about as hard as he possibly could I figure though.Quote:

Hearns broke his hand, Hagler's head/chin must have been made of steel.Quote:

2) Julian Jackson
3) Nigel Benn
(other possibilities) are hearns, nas rjj,
HW
1) Earnie Shavers
2) George Foreman
3) Mike Tyson

Good stuff.
For non hevs its a little tougher to be definitive for me after 1 and 2 which imo would be Jimmy Wilde and Sam Langford. From 3 on I start to stutter. Is it Jackson or Zarate or maybe Olivares? What about the old dog Young Otto? Armstrong and Duran? Even the technician Eder Jofre had 50 ko's in just over 70 fights. And Bailey. As you said, short on skill but tall on power. Just like Shavers. Saddler could punch. Ketchell and Arguello or Wilfredo Gomez. So many big punchers.
Hevs. Little known guys like George Godfrey, Bob Satterfield and Elmer Ray most likely punched as hard as any hev we normally default to. And again even though Langford was really a middleweight, he knocked out most of the heavyweight contenders of his day and ended up with more ko's then Foreman and Tyson combined. I'd probably have Vitali in my top 3 hev punchers.
I did not realise Sam Langford had that much power. Certainly knew Dempsey did.
