Most exciting = Sugar ray leonard/Aaron pryor
Most vicious = Mike Tyson, Roberto duran
Most methodical/efficient = felix trinidad, julio ceasar chavez
A good combination of exciting, vicious and efficient = Tommy hearns, Salvador sanchez, Roy jones, Alexis arguello, Oscar de la hoya, pacquaio.
*only speaking of fighters that I grew up watching.
Who am I missing? ...give me some good youtube material :)
George Foreman is the first one to enter my mind.
I was thinking Julian Jackson as well, but dismissed him. Why? Because he always finished folks with one punch.... :)
The boxers I named are guys fighting right now. To name the great finishers of the past would take a long time. Look for boxers with a very high percentage of KO wins. It's a good bet that they are good finishers. Wilder, Kovalev, GGG and Joshua all have a very high percentage of wins by KO.
So many names, lol. I'm reading, like damn, I forgot.him and him.
Btw, a kid I used to train later sparred with valero, years before his incident. When I talked to him he said two things, 1, he could hit, and was real creative with his his combos. 2, he said he seemed crazy, not violent crazy, but he said something about his eyes and personality just didn't seem right. Years before. He nailed it.
But yes, Incredible finisher!!!

Canelo, Spence, Crawford, Jacobs, GGG and Kovalev are all great finishers. If they hurt a guy there is a very good chance they will finish him. There are many other good finishers but these guys are who I thought of off the top of my head.
John Holmes
