Who's pound for pound hardest hitters (still active)

This is me top 5,

1. Diego Corrales; the most feared pure punchers, I know he's been beaten by the best boxers, Chico can still hurt any one. Punches from range, or close up, gets wicked leverage cos of his height and twisting his body up close - really whips them in, reminds me of Arguello without arguello's chin. The only man to knockdown (heavily) Casamayor and stop the undestructable Castillo. No one will be able to fight this guy for 12 rounds - either he gets knocked out or he wins.

2. Rafael Marquez; brilliant puncher with good boxing ability. Natural puncher with very fast load up, would love to see him in with Mayhar Monshipour

3. Manny Pacquio; solid puncher, especially with his left hand, on his day could KO anyone.

4. Juan Guzman, Brilliant at Super Bamtam, can he carry this through to Featherweight.

5. Ricardo Mayorga, has to be in the list, cos of the way he fights, he throws every punch with devil.

There is alot of fighters missing, what do you lot reckon[/b]

Arthur Abraham!!!!

I think Lamon Brewster is worthy of a mention, maybe Zab Judah also. You don't stop Spinks without some power.

It will be interesting to see if some of our prospects can carry their power into world class - guys like Maccrinelli and Haye could join this list.

Not as highly rated as the aforementioned but does anyone think Torres deserves a mention ? A future one has to be Lucian Bute

Maybe Edwin Valero, but he hasn't really proved his power at world class. I do think his KO vs Estaban Morales was a good result, remember he took Colin Dunne to a MD. He also took Vicente Mosquera 9 rounds before being DQ'd.
