What do you think?
A) Kostya Tszyu, or Felix Trinidad?
B) Diego Corrales, or Antwun Echols?
C) Naseem Hamed, or Tommy Hearns?

Guess I should've gone Tszyu, it being Australia Day soon & all
It's close (they all are to some extent, IMO). I think Trinidad was just a touch more explosive.

I'm afraid you can't. Tszyu & Trinidad are being compared head-to-head, so you must choose between them

I'll go with Trinidad, Hearns, and Hammed
But based on head to head:
Trinidad, Echols, and Hearns.

Whatever you choose that doesn't include Hearns would be pushing it. Even Tyson stated that no one punches as hard as Hearns at his weight not that he's felt it before but if anyone, he would know.

Why him, if anyone? Seems kind of arbitrary.
I went with Hearns because his opposition was better, tougher, & he showed the ability to carry the punch up in weight.

Because Tyson is a proven puncher. It takes one to know one. He must know a thing a two about punchers and Hearns must be something if Tyson brought him up as an example of punching power being God given.
