Poll: Your Best Technical (Pure) Boxer Ever

[DeeMoney]

Not trying to be a pedant, I am thinking about the question and how to best answer it. But am wondering what exactly is being asked.

Are you asking:

A) Who is the best at performing basic and generally accepted boxing skills (jab, block, feint)?

B) Who performs general boxing skills the best according to traditional, best practices, standards?

C) If all fighters were the same physical build and athletic ability who would be the best?

C) If all fighters were the same physical build and athletic ability who would be the best?

D) Who is best at applying different techniques as the fight requires? I.e. has gained such a mastery of the game that they can adjust to any situation.

Is that yet another definition of mastering technique?

I agree, I, as well, couldn't figure out how to approach the question.

I noticed someone said Wald. I thought, no. I can see that he has mastered the technique he employs, but put him out of his rhythm and he's no Ali.

No, in this one the fighters are as they were. No size adjustment. It is Duran vs Mayweather, just as they were at that weight.
