    James Kirkland was slow IMO but he had heavy hands.

    They asked Canelo who was the most devastating puncher he ever faced and he said Kirkland surprisingly. Yeah he was slow as molasses.

    Arturo Gatti imo was slow for a guy that came up from the lower weight classes. Mayweather and DLH made him look in slow motion. But man he had a powerful left hook specially to the body.

    Carlos Bollilo Gonzalez was a big puncher, but slow handed.

    Gatti's career formula:

    Struggled against A and A+ fighters.

    Went to war with A- & B+ fighters. Won some lost some.

    Anything less than a B- fighter, he'd put them in a hospital bed.

    I'd rewrite that.

    He got battered against A+ fighters

    Lost to Cs and B-s.

    Struggled with C-s.

    Destroyed Granada's.

    Tried to war with all of them.
