By the way, its me RBR again... I know I know, I run my mouth too much... do you like my list? Its prolly crap, but I actually don't think Bazooka Gomez was as great a puncher as people think (Obviously, at 40(40)-1-1 he finally went the distance, but I just don't think he had the one punch KO power to be in the top 15, as the Ring rated him, but he is one of my favorite fighters, certainly of the last 40 or so years...)
