Well, who in your opinion is the best defensive fighter of all time.

And remember your only allowed ONE PICK!

Choose Carefully! :boxing:

Floyd Mayweather Jr.

This is not a blinded fanboy pick. He's truly the most technically sound defensive fighter I've ever seen. He hardly ever takes a big hit, and his most recent performance against JMM was amazing. Some may not agree, but that's my vote.

I'll say Locche but I'm not the most educated on defensive masters.

Prime 1966/67 Muhammad Ali.

It was almost impossible to hit him with a clean punch in his prime.

He never had a mark on his face from 1960 until 1971.
