Second there are quite a few guys who hit harder than him p4p right now want some names? Rafael Marquez, Ponce De Leon, Pacquaio, Miranda(he was outlanded, outskilled by Pavlik), Miguel Cotto gets better leverage, Oscar's left hook. These are just a few people.

Here are few other things that a perfect power puncher has that he doesn't.
Head/body movement, explosive speed to get in, great chin, being able to land the punch nobody sees.

Tyson, Hearns, lower weight Roy JOnes Jr, Julian Jackson, Dempsey, Louis, Robinson, etc, etc could all land that punch that would take you out immediately.

Pavlik is a poor man's young Foreman. Which isn't bad at all, but definitely not the perfect punching machine.
Pavlik is nothing like young Foreman at all Pavlik uses a jab he uses straight punches young Foreman threw wild hooks and uppercuts plus Pavlik has a much better defence Foreman's defence was non existence.
