Carl Thompson could hit. Even when hurt he could take you out:

Not at World level but Ovill McKenzie is one that could whack.

Pound for pound I think it has to be Naz although I give notable mentions also to:

Nigel Benn especially at middleweight
David Haye especially at cruiserweight
Frank Bruno
Lennox Lewis
Wayne Alexander
Henry Wharton was another who could really whack.

Pat Barrett deserves a mention.

My mother deserves a shout, the amount of times she tagged me for being a little sh*t back in the day

Great shout. I'd put Benny Lynch up there as well.

As for my answer to the thread - Its Fitzsimmons or Wilde. Both had the power to knock out much bigger men.

People say joshua but has hit knocked out people cold from one punch? He unleashes a barrage. David price hits harder than Joshua IMO

Naz is up there for sure.

Absolutely.

No Joe C?

For me Lewis, Naz, Benn and Haye.

Some of the others mentioned had power but they didn't beat or KO any top fighters so hard to judge them isn't it? Hide, Bruno and Joshua for example steamed rolled fighters but in Bruno and Hide's case did they ever beat an elite fighter and by KO?

Jock McAvoy was a very feared puncher.

Also Bob Fitzsimmons if he counts as a Brit

But this is about Brits, not Venezuelans.

On raw, freakish power - Wayne Alexander

Colin Jones could dig,he was an ex grave digger boom boom

jamesmcdonnell · Post by **jamesmcdonnell** » 28 Feb 2017, 13:52

In terms of outright force delivered, I'd say Lennox Lewis has to be - the right cross he hit Rahman with is probably the hardest single punch I've ever seen.

Fournier?
