Who are the most successful fighters in history with the least natural talent??

He's right bro, you ARE ignorant when it comes to the art of boxing. Your statement lacked so much credibility its not even funny. :bottle: :bottle: :bottle:

Lmao...floyd fans get so butthurt when their idol gets made fun of. Y'all are insecure just like Floyd himself. floydiots are insecure people just like their idol fraud jr. we can't do noting about it but let's try to understand their deficiencies.

Pay close attention folks, LW is about to give a quick class on how to slip the fools in the ring that is NSB. This, is what we call trolling. Take note, it's quick, to the point, almost funny, and most importantly, absolutely ridiculous and far from the truth. This, is what we call ignorance. This is equally as ridiculous, however it lacks the humor to be trolling, and it lacks the facts to be a post worthy of recognition, thus, it's safe to assume the author knows nothing of the sport and is most likely immature, and won't be around long, certainly not to contribute any useful or intelligent conversation.

BHop.....his die hards been saying this for the longest....he lost his f*cking first pro fight, which great does that?!? lol.....he was NEVER undefeated!!

Pay close attention folks, LW is about to give a quick class on how to slip the fools in the ring that is NSB. can we include guys with mental deficiencies? if so floyd mayweather This, is what we call trolling. Take note, it's quick, to the point, almost funny, and most importantly, absolutely ridiculous and far from the truth. Floyd mayweather. All he has is good handspeed. His defense is running around the ring so I don't consider that a talent since anybody off the street can do that. He has no knockout power and his hands are like pretzels.

paulie for me, he has decent handspeed but everyone knows about his power lol. the fact he gets by with his power is a true testament to his boxing knowledge and application

Tony Zale, very good body puncher, good technique for his era, tough as nails very good power but not overly coordinated , fast of foot or hand, reflexes or athleticism Antonio Margarito...outside of a great chin and stamina, he was wholly mediocre on the world class level talent-wise Rocky Marciano was off the charts with toughness and heart but he was sloppy, not the hardest to it, and slow of hand and foot. great power for his size, made up for lack of many athletic gifts boxing wise with awkwardness, timing, and underrated countepunching Another disrepectful post about Marciano. He didn't have the best defense of his era, but he had great defense nonethless, "not the hardest to hit" is something people say about Rios or Margarito, and thats pure insult if you are trying to say his defense was that porous.

Interesting thread. Carl Froch for one. Nobody thought this guy would accomplish even a fraction of what he has. Nobody. And why would they pre Pascal, pre Super Six? He had to prove it to people. There are many who are probably still amazed at how this unathletic, lumbering, wide swinging, wide open crude operator is amongst the best boxers in the world. Everyone has to prove it to people. Some of us had high hopes for Froch, whether he had certain attributes or not. I would also consider calling Froch unathletic a gross overreaction. He may not be the most graceful person, but he is far from unathletic. You don't get to an elite level by accident, you must have more than one dimension with better than average qualitities.

JMM, to me, is a guy who looks all education. Up to recently at least, he never looked like the most amazing athlete. Just timing, intelligence, composure, and honed technique.

I would say Tim Bradley and Andre Ward are the least naturally talented while being some of the most accomplished. Ward's foot speed and Handspeed are decent but not great. He also lacks punching power and he has the reflexes of a middle aged man, seriously I think Hopkins moves better than Ward.

Floyd mayweather. All he has is good handspeed. His defense is running around the ring so I don't consider that a talent since anybody off the street can do that. He has no knockout power and his hands are like pretzels. Only handspeed? He also has foot speed, a good chin, and exceptional reflexes. And NO not just any guy off the street can defend as well as Floyd. Floyd can make guys miss while standing in front of them.

Joe Calzaghe - Tremendous engine but he didn't do anything great by any means. Don't rate him but credit where due he always found a way too win.

It's not really about the talent...... But how HARD AND INTELLIGENT (which 99% of boxers don't train smart) train.

Antonio Margarito Good chin, 'plaster-of-Paris' power, but that's about it.

and this is how every thread gets ruined nowadays. i was actually giving floyd a compliment for once and it gets turned against me. for a retarded person the man can box.

He has no knockout power and his hands are like pretzels. ^^^^^^^^^^^:haha: then, why not include all the mayweather clan? roger and crackhead sr. they were born mentally deficient. can we include guys with mental deficiencies? if so floyd mayweather and this is how every thread gets ruined nowadays.

how can you guys say floyd mayweather? he says himself he has "God-given talent" and thats what separates him. the guys speed and athleticism is exceptional not to mention his great chin and propensity not to get cut.
