View Full Version : Who is the most powerful fighter around today?
For example how far up the divisions could PACMAN go and still be effective.
Or Marquez could he step up even further through the divisions.

Marquez can still be sucessfull at 135 because he has skills and is smart in the ring.
Pacquiao needs his power and I doubt he can bring it at 135. He is done at 130:stir:

I agree though that Pacquiao is probably best at 130, he started off his career at light flyweight. :eek:
Fagquez could barely get it done at 130 versus old man Barrera and he still managed to get put down on all fours. Casamayor, Diaz, or Julio brutalize blockhead Faquez and end his career. :kick:

I forgot Pacquiao can throw a right hand now. He might do good at 135 cause there has never been a two handed fighter before. :lol:
but he will probably be a crooked politician by then. :cheer:

Good points, but I was referrring to baby Marquez, how far could he go..? or is he done at super ban

Oscar has the most power.
He can fight Floyd on Monday night, and promote him on Tuesday night.
Come to think of it, on May 5th, I think he'll be doing both at the same time.
FIX! FIX! FIX!
That said, Oscar TKO/KO 11 Flid.
Don’t be so cynical my Orthodox friend.
I too hope that Oscar teaches the pretty one a lesson, I am already planning my weekend around it.
Phase one, get rid of “her”..

P4P, I'm not sure if there is anyone 'stronger' than Vic Darchinyan @ 112.

I am stronger than Vic and I only weigh 90 pounds. I can pick up a mini cooper all by myself.
I am not a "professional fighter" but I am still a fighter. I fight peasants, and beat them.
Tam - is there any chance you are picking Vic because he is australian?

You made 1 post, and then another and another. Praising JMM and talking shit about Manny. Typical. :doh: Not sure what you thought this thread had to do with JMM when the title was "WHO IS THE MOST POWERFULL FIGHTER AROUND TODAY". Yeah that was obviously talking about Rafael MArquez not JMM.You have an unhealthy obsession :slap:
There isn't any way to predict this.
For instance, three of the most powerful welters of the last 15 years (ever?) turned into seemingly average punchers at junior middlweight:
Quartey
Jose Luis Lopez
Mayorga
Others apparently not brining it up...Hatton, Freitas (suarez prime suspect, though), mago, rosendo alvarez...

IMO you almost have to exclude the HW from this thread. They can't carry their power to the next weight.
With that said. I am pretty sure Miranda could take his power and be effective most likely up to LTHW. He's a bit of a one trick pony as well, but he could take his power up with him.

If he was THAT big a puncher he would not have a loss on his record. How is such a huge puncher going to let a guy with a broken jaw make it 12 rounds? He can't hit that hard really.

Miranda would get killed at light heavyweight. You guys all have Mayorga syndrome... except Mayorga actually has a win over a top guy.

Most of the biggest punchers are so reliant on their power that they don't become well-rounded fighters. Shavers, Satterfield, Julian Jackson, Foreman - they all have losses on their records.

And they all fought great fighters and most of all of their losses were by KO to great fighters (not talking about old Foreman) because they went out to win by KO or go out on their backs in the crunch, Miranda could have done ALOT more.
Do you honestly think that Julian Jackson, McClellan, Hearns or a guy like Hagler would have fought Abraham like that late in the fight?
They would have been on Arthur like a Lion on a wounded wildabeast.

I was referring to a specific fight and you know exactly the one I'm talking about. If he was such a huge puncher Abraham would not have taken many flush shots from Miranda to his jaw that was destroyed.
Seriously, Miranda is the new Mayorga.

I thought this thread was about who's power could follow with them the best into above weight classes? I never said Miranda could beat LTHW's. I said he could bang with them. comparing Miranda to Mayorga is right on the money. Mayorga had great power too. Both are one trick ponies. I don't think Miranda is all that but he does have good power and he could take it up and hurt guys at 168 and 175:popcorn:

Doc Henderson, Wesbury Bascum, Sam Baroudi, Albert Johnson and Bob Foxworth were great light heavyweights?
Shavers and Satterfield are both continually ranked among the top 10 or 20 hitters of all time, but they lost to shitty-ass fighters. Your original post was retarded.
At least Mayorga was fun and unpredictable especially at press confrences, Miranda is just annoying imho.
Mayorga was ghetto as hell, he was just brutal in his shit talk and never claimed to be the best fighter on earth . Miranda actually thinks he is a skilled fighter. He's alright, but the guy is getting stopped soon with his shitty ass defense.

The most powerful fighter I've ever seen was Juan Manuel Marquez. I saw him in the bathroom once, and everybody stood 10 feet away from him. He pissed so powerfully that everything within five feet of him got soaked in urine. True story.

Hold up Wiki Warrior, I said most, you had to throw Satterfield in the mix?
And if my last post was retarded about all the hardest hitting middles not choking like a bitch against Abraham and being on him and going for the KO late then why dont you go ahead and give me your wikitheory.

Buddy Baer was considered the biggest puncher of his era, and he had tons of shitty losses.

I'll go out on a limb and say Paul Williams.. At 6'1" with an 82 inch reach and a Tommy Hearns frame, Williams gets great leverage on his shots. He will probably be able to bang with guys at 175 someday..
