    This I remember because I actually feared for Roger's safety. Fearless Freddie Pendleton dropped the Hiroshima bomb on poor Roger Mayweather, and then he gets a little Mercer-Morrison action going!

    Still think Pacs bomb vs Hatton was the hardest single shot I can remember in those weight classes.:fightme: Similarly there were 2 or 3 seconds there when I thought Ricky might have been dead.

    Nah, Freddie had those superwide shoulders and a cracking shot. This was straight-out DE-struction! Pac is a great puncher but this is just superior leverage. Freddie was the real-life Rocky story, a clubfighter with amazing power who went from journeyman to champ.

    Just wonna say that Roger Mayweather got knocked the fuck out. That was an awesome overhand right whoever that shit that he got caught with on while on the ropes was a thing of beauty as well. However I still feel that the left hook is the single greatest punch of all-time. I'll Holla 5000

    I remember that KO from years ago, but there have been any number of better shots to KO men at those weight classes. And yes, Pac starching Hatton is one of them.

    Mayweather had a terrible beard, so thats not really all that impressive.
