Pound for Pound BIG punchers

[IamInuit]

Not a chance. The only advantage Jackson has over them is film footage and highlight reels.

The only advantage they have over Jackson is a) fighting in a time where you could fight a ton of guys who had no business being in the ring and b) not having film footage and highlight reels, so all we have to judge them by is sensationalized newspaper headlines, old guys who wanna tell you about how it was "BACK IN MY DAY" and hyperbole spewed by huckster "historians" who want to show you how far back their knowledge goes.

If you wanna say some skinny white guy from the 20's hit harder than Julian Jackson, then I will say GOOD DAY TO YOU SIR.

Job Biscuit Eh!! Eh!!

Then good day to you sir because that's exactly what I'm saying. If you are going to use this phantom p4p equation its not even close. And to your following post, so what if x amount of fighters had winning records. When you fight once a week you can lose. If one were to factor in the 3 to 6 hundred fights not listed at boxrec its a runaway.

As to "job biscuit eh eh" I don't follow.

Modern day Jackson or Valero. All time no biscuit.

If you fed Julian that kind of opposition he'd have a 100% KO ratio.

Hell I'd say even ol' cotton fist Paulie Malignaggi would have been over 60%.

I'm sick of these old fossils getting a free ride!

Don't know whether that list is in order.... but I would pick my top two as Kovalev and Gonzalez.

Golovkin is heavy handed but not a big single puncher like Adonis Stevenson who is the biggest puncher today.

Some good names up there, guys. Here's some more for debate;

Joe Louis
Stanley Ketchell
Khoisai Galaxy
Nigel Benn
Tommy Hearns .... of course!
Bob Foster
Aaron Pryor
Edwin Valero



Everyone will soon say Earnie Shavers, but for those of you that are more knowledgeable than the average (big ugly) bear,

Bob Satterfield
Why has nobody mentioned Archie Moore?
Ike Williams
Daniel Ponce de Leon
Sandy Saddler

Look up Lamar Clark too, I think he went something like 45 straight KOs. I could fight my granny 45 times, and I'm sure she would survive a few of them.

Khoisai Galaxy

A power punching Thai with a soft chin, poor-ish defence, but an amazing fighting spirit. Just a shame he was a 115lber. Twenty five/thirty years later, the Internet would have made him superstar not just in Thailand (which he was), but potentially a Pacquiao level fighter worldwide.
