  • greatest finishers

    they are often the most exciting to watch, but who was the best finisher in the history of boxing, who had that killer instinct that went into overdrive once they had a guy hurt

    by that i mean, when they had their man hurt they went straight down to business and finished them off- no second chances at all

    one name that immediately comes to mind is prime tyson

          George Foreman. When he was young he and a couple other am's were known as 'the finishers'. Foreman carried that tag well as pro too.

            Joe Louis is probably the best finisher I've ever seen.

              just for his massive number of ko's i gotta mention archie moore on this one!

              just notching up 131 ko's against any opposition shows a real killer instinct for finishing.

              jack dempsy tho was a full blown killing machine if he even sniffed that you were hurt you would be in your corner asking what happened.

                Tito Trinidad is one of the best finishers in the game. Tito finished like a maniac against ODLH. If only Tito had a 'Big Ass Chin' like the old timers?

                Once Smokin Joe got those gloves Smokin, his opponent was in the Emergency Ward.

                Lights Out Toney with the way he dug deep against Jirov in the last round and put him on his arse.
