    Top 5 TWO handed punchers

    Who do you have?

    SRR
    Duran
    SRL
    Tyson
    Pintor

    These are guys who use both hands for power, round after round, and bombard their opponents with left-hooks and right hands.

    Other notables:

    JMM
    McCallum
    Ricardo Lopez
    Chavez

    Joe Louis was very dangerous and effective with both hands.

    Yes, he's a prime example and belongs in the top 5 for sure.

    Somehow I don't see Foreman making the list. Arguello deserves mention though.

    I dont know about top-5 ever, but Foreman was a killer from either side.

    Lopez is a great shout, as is Arguello.

    Its a cliche, but Louis really is the gold-standard. Absurdly gifted puncher, with either hand.

    As much as I rail on Louis for being potential Tye Fields fodder, he had epic two handed power.

    I completely agree with my predecessor, Louis and Tyson are the only two that jump to mind.

    Wlad can hurt you with either hand. So can Vitali. Marciano was two-fisted, secured stoppages with the left hook or the right hands. Hamed was two-fisted.

    Tyson by a mile. He packed obscene power in both hands, in fact they were fairly equal.

    Tito was a reputed banger with either hand.

    There's one guy Hut posted a thread about, (a middle, super middle or light heavyweight), but forget his name.

    Arguello and Julian Jackson. His right was better, but his left could still knock you dead. Lol at Joe Louis. That robotic bum would barely beat John Ruiz.
