Yes he is a MUCH more powerful puncher then Conor and any MMA fighter at 155LB and under, but a power puncher in Boxing (at WW)? He was not close to one of the hardest punchers at WW. I mean, after his first year at WW, Manny went 8 straight years at WW without stopping anyone. Can you think of any "power puncher" in Boxing that went 8 years without stopping anyone? Fans may not want to admit it (although its not a bad thing) but Manny's punching power at WW is around the same as Floyd's. Floyd is another Boxer who's power didn't translate to WW/jrMW.
He could make tons regardless, I just don’t think at this point he could transition and be a world class boxer.
He’s world class MMA hands down
Manny is a natural 145er or below, and Floyd said Conor's power was nothing special.
Let's remember this before we overhype his boxing.
Meanwhile, Daniel Cormier, an Olympian will back Khabib's grappling skills as will many top level grapplers.
Why in the world would he choose to punch with less power in a boxing match?? Boxers just hit much harder...When he had Mayweather hurt in the corner after that body shot (or low blow) he was throwing as hard as he could.
The truth is Conor’s power is probably below average by boxing standards. Even is MMA his power is massively overrated. Don’t get me wrong he has plenty of power, but it’s his timing and accuracy that kills people, especially with 4oz gloves.
MMA boxing is just different. You have to worry about kicks and takedowns you can’t throw the same way as you can in a pure boxing match. It’s mechanics of the body. Boxers sit down on their punches more and put more of their body into it, and spend all their time working on their hands. Honestly, someone like Mayweather who is often called pillow fisted in the boxing world, would be an be a deadly knockout artist in MMA. The gap is that big.
tell that to every fighter conor has ko'd stiff...tell that to aldo, pourier, mendes, eddie and countless others he can't hit hard.

I'm not saying the guy doesn't hit hard but saying "tell that to every fighter Conor has KOed stiff" then following that with a list of names that only has 1 guy that was "KOed stiff" looks pretty dumb.
You wanna see what KOed stiff looks like look up JMM vs Manny 4, or Fransis vs Reem, Rumble vs everyone but DC, Mark Hunt fights. Conor has "KOed stiff" exactly 1 guy in the UFC, why do people keep saying this?
conor has stopped more people in the first round than mark hunt or pretty much every fighter. so while conor may not have the 1 punch ko power as hunt, he's pretty close...I have seen conor hurt guys badly, with grazing shots.
Power close to Hunt? Don’t be ridiculous.
Pac man probably does hit harder than Conor. He is known for his power. Conor has knocked out 1 guy w 1 punch kinda..as he hit aldo running forward and even then aldo was conscious and got tagged 2 more times on ground. People saying Conor is super powerful are nuts. He uses angles and precision as his main tools not power. Sure he hits hard w the left, but its not like he knocks people unconscious w his super human power.
I meant in regards to his weight class...of course...not power vs power...but relative to their weight class...
