He looks like a big guy but he only had a 68" reach.


He has a shot against most anyone ever but he could also lose to many people throughout 154s history
KO percentages are not always an indicator of one's punching power..

Kendall Holt and Lamont Peterson have the exact same KO percentage but do u really believe these guys have equal punching power? One can argue that holt is one of the hardest punchers at 140 as he has true one punch knockout power in both hands..

There are many factors to take into account when gauging someones power.. level of opposition, style of opponents they faced, or in holt's case for instance, he was plagued by shoulder problems for the longest time so he couldnt throw punches with full extension..

TerryNorris was a thunderous puncher plain and simple.
