    The Most Complete Fighter?

    For me its charley burley, the man could punch, great defence, good attack, good chin, good stamina, heart was never questioned, could fight most styles and never avoided any one

    Hagler. He could box and brawl southpaw and orthodox equally well. Very good power, good speed, absolutely amazing chin and great heart.

    Just an awesome fighter.

        No just the one fight against smith, but i havent seen nothing of harry greb, but evey one knows he was a windmil fighter with a good chin and big heart and a great middleweight. You can rate fighters with out seeing alot of footage! have you ever heard of books and ring side reports?

          good choice but hagler could never really handle fighters who liked to move and use the ring, such as sugar ray, boogalo wats, willie monroe

                  Most Complete, not best, ok?

                  Ray Leonard

                  Honorable mentions that immediately pop to my mind

                  Ezzard Charles
                  Floyd Mayweather Jr
