One of a kind fighters...

[CarlosG815]

Fighters who were so freakishly good at their craft that when you watch them fight it's hard to believe that all their attributes are in one body. Fighters whom when you watch you say to yourself "We'll never see anything like this again." or fighters who are just 1 in a billion specimens.

Roy Jones Jr
Muhammad Ali
Mike Tyson

Who are your picks?

I know Ill never see another 17 year old become world champion.

Wilfredo Benitez was truly one of a kind.

Good choices. Arguello and Hearns to me were truly one of a kind.

Another great choice in Liston, not sure how I left him out.

I think Al "Panama" Brown takes the cake as a physical freak. A 6 foot bantamweight? CRAZY!

Agreed. He's the most unusual of the three, physically.

Harry Greb & Henry Armstrong deserve mention for their endurance. Likewise, Joe Walcott & Sam Langford for their weight-jumping extremes. Similar cases to be made in the latter regard for both Georges Carpentier & Mickey Walker, too.

He never really jumped much weight, I believe he never weighed in more than WW, just fought much bigger men but indeed a physical freak. I think one of his losses was due to him agreeing to a ****** catchweight that left him really trained I can't recall who it was.

As for the topic I'd say Jack Johnson, he was built far better than most today (same for Jeffries) and almost impossible to land a clean glove on him.
