You guys wanna hear something funny? I was checking the Original Joe Walcott's HP rating and it was a 1!!!!!!!!! HAHAHAHAHA. This was the same guy who knocked out light heavyweights and middleweights and had to carry opponents to get fights. Who ever made up the ratings obviously needs to do a bit more research.

I also think that the number of rounds it takes to finish an opponent needs to be taken into account for the HP rating. A guy who scores a lot of early round KO's should have a higher rating than guys who have to wear someone down over time. This is why I think Dempsey hit harder than Marciano or Frazier.
