View Full Version : Who is the toughest fighter right now?
TheGreat1 05-14-2005, 02:36 AM I was just watching the Trinidad vs. Mayorga fight and remembered the Brewster/Wlad fight and was wondering who is the Toughest fighter right now and why. I talking about the guys with little to no defense who can continue to eat shots and keep going. I'm taking Brewster because he takes alot of heavy shots from the big heavyweights, and continues to fight never being KO'd
Floydmayweather 05-14-2005, 02:38 AM Mayorga is the toughest fighter. Followed by Castillo, Corrales, and Toney.

Yeah Chico is tough, all of his fights are very exciting. I don't remember did Floyd KO chico or did the ref stop it?

Eric Persson 05-14-2005, 07:44 AM I took Mayorga, his chin coupled with his macho antics makes every fight fun. Except against Spinks, of course.
Truth 05-14-2005, 07:47 AM Mayorga is the toughest, he proved that in his fight with Tito Trinidad.
Zab Super Judah 05-14-2005, 08:29 AM wow I thought gatti would be the one leading...id go with castillo or mayorga
shemmue 05-14-2005, 10:26 AM 1. gatti
2. corrales
3. castillo
4. mayorga
I voted for JLC as the toughest of the fighters in the poll. All of them are arguably the toughest collection of fighters in the sport without a doubt. Brewster is the toughest heavyweight and I can understand why you would say he is the toughest fighter. Being that he was sustaining heavy shots on a broken jaw from meehan as well.

Martin (Top Knowledge) 05-14-2005, 11:54 AM Interesting thread man... I reckon the toughest son of a ***** out there is Erik Morales.
He's had LOADS of wars and has only ever been put on his arse once! (Morales vs Barrera 1) - And that looked like more of a slip than a legitimate knock down.
He's one tough Mexican fighter!
But I like Mayorga/Corrales/Pacquiao/Barrera/Gatti/and a load of others in this catogory too!
IwatchBoxing 05-14-2005, 11:57 AM Corrales or Gatti, true warriors, unlike others who jump on bandwagons, I didnt forget "blood and guts" Gatti.
Living Legend 05-14-2005, 12:06 PM I have to go with corrales, he kept getting up after getting knocked down by mayweather and his corner stopped the fight, nit the ref...He walked through freitas's power and made him quit, and he got the sh*t beat out of him last weekend and still knocked otu castillo, a fighter that has never been stopped, not even by the Great Floyd Mayweather...
The Pretender 05-14-2005, 12:19 PM I vote for Ruiz because he's the toughest fighter by far and that's obvious. Ruiz fight anyone and everyone else ducks him!
paul750 05-14-2005, 12:30 PM there are so many boxers who are very tough, i don't think there is one guy who stands out on their own as being the toughest, the guys on the poll are very tough, but there are many others as well
TheGreat1 05-14-2005, 01:44 PM 1. gatti
2. corrales
3. castillo
4. mayorga
so no one else thinks brewster is among the toughest

Tszyu, has he been pounded on before like the others i have on the list or is he just your favorite fighter? i'm sure he is tough but i have never really seen him in an all out war, but i have only seen a few of his fights where he just dominated
.::|ULTIMATE|::. 05-14-2005, 01:50 PM JLC is the toughest... EASILY and by a long shot.
and evidence to my claim...
Juan Lazcano (war)
Joel Casamayor (tough fight)
Julio Diaz (tough fight)
Diego Corrales (war)
All of the above in less than a year time, and he wants the rematch his last war.
Martin (Top Knowledge) 05-14-2005, 01:52 PM Tszyu, has he been pounded on before like the others i have on the list or is he just your favorite fighter? i'm sure he is tough but i have never really seen him in an all out war, but i have only seen a few of his fights where he just dominated
Yeah I don't think Tszyu really fits into this catorgory either. Don't get me wrong he's a tough man, but I've got a lot of his fights on vid and the only WAR I've ever really seen hin in was against Vince Phillips. (And he got knocked out).
He tends to either KO the opponent, or just out box them, and run away with it on points. I don't think he opts for toe-2-toe wars... Mind you, I reckon Ricky Hatton is gonna drag him into one in 3 weeks time!!!
Slipx 05-14-2005, 06:17 PM my vote goes to castillo
estrada is also pretty tough
TheGreat1 05-16-2005, 01:44 AM my vote goes to castillo
estrada is also pretty tough
arfe you talking about david estrada, the guy who just lost to sugar shane and isha smith? yeah he does ave a good chin, i don't think it has been tested as much as the others on this list
Hurlex 05-16-2005, 01:51 AM 1-Mayorga(watch tito/mayorga...at a weight he had no business at,it took 8-9rounds to finally put him down and walked back to his corner on his own feet,unlike Tito having to be held by his dad after Hopkins KO
2-Gatti(watch Ward/gatti trilogy especially 9thround of first fight...infact..watch any fight gatti has been in)
3-Corrales(god knows i hate the man,but u can drop him and he will jsut keep coming)
4-Castillo(he's only 4th cuz just recently we saw how toght he is..but the man will be ranked higher with years to come and has a lot of heart also)
