Weakest puncher of all time who was still considered a contender?

Okami

lol no way. The guy lacked killer instinct for sure but definitely had punching power

Had some great ground and pound, though!

busted many faces just with the jab too

The more I think about it the more I think Bendo is the GOAT on this topic.

Eh, I can see that. I think Yair's ground defense sucked though. I guess it's that he's style is more pitter patter, kinda like Volk or Cruz, they rarely load up. He's not really comparable with the first 4, but he's one of the least hard hitting champions, like Cruz. To be fair, he was also oversized for a chunk of his career.

Saying that a BW who KOed Maynard or Mendes lacks punching power is pretty absurd tbh

Cruz, Benson, Shields, fitch, maia, Chael
