Great question.....
I always liked John Westgarth even though I nver saw him fight. I love a gutsy journeyman who wins a couple of fights against prospects. Westgarth actually stopped oyebola and Glenn McCrory and went 7 rounds with Razor Ruddock.
I believe Dave Jaco, a skinny heavyweight also stopped Razor Ruddock.....

Jaco could bang mate. Bobby Crabtree was another big puncher.

Yeah they were weird ones. Journeymen who looked athletically unsuited to boxing but could bang.

Leva Kirakosyan was a pretty basic boxer but had real one punch power, with either hand - I enjoyed watching him.
