One thing you can say for Hamed, despite his dozens of glaring faults, is that he had power. You're talking about Round 3. MAB's guard was sound, the blow hit his gloves up in front of his nose, yet the punch was still hard enough to make it bleed.
thats the one the first of two times barrera came to hamed the next time he did he got tageed aswell i believe if he had of come forward in that fight he would of been stopped.... barrera fought a smart fight as much as i hate to admit it

If Barrera The Brawler had shown up the result would have been a Draw. Anyone who can take the kind of leather that Poison and Morales threw in their heydays, AND still be punching back at the end of Round 12, was bound to give Hamed a long, hard night.

Dempsey vs Firpo (September 14, 1923); before being knocked out, Firpo, with a formidable right blow, knocked Dempsey of the ring for 19 seconds…

How about Barrera/Marquez? Barrera cracked him with that right hand, Marguez went down, and the ref ruled no knockdown. It was such a perfect shot, the ref(Nady I think) was fooled by it.

"Robin Blake" landed a tremendous Straight left that put "Harold Brazier" on the deck but Brazier got up and went on to TKO Blake.

Another one was Moore-Durrell I

Archie claimed that Yvonne Durrell hit him harder than anyone.

Archie Moore dropped Rocky Marciano with as pretty a short right as you could ever want to see. Sure, Marciano took control and knocked Moore down five times before the fight ended in the 9th, but Rocky mostly wore Archie down with clubbing punches. That beautifully timed right that Archie threw may have been the best single punch of the fight.
