    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.[/QUOTE]

    Excuses. Truth is punching power is defined by your ability to deliver it. Only 55% of men fell.
    I'm a Norris fan, always have been but I'm not going to pretend he was getting fools out of there with his power.

    Norris couldn't hit?! 47 wins, 31 KOs.

    Try tellin' Donald Curry or John The Beast Mugabi or Meldrick Taylor that Terry Norris wasn't a power puncher!

    Not many guys get carried out on stretchers.

    This is pretty simple to understand so I'm not sure why I'm saying it for a 3rd time. 55% KO rate. Power is only relevant to its effect on the fight. Similar to it not mattering if you have a bad chin if you don't get hit, it doesn't matter that you have great power if you don't set it up. So again, the fact is 55% KO. His speed defined him FAR more than his power
