    no order whatsoever


    those who did the most for the sport in terms of draw and dollaz?

    pacquiao
    mayweather
    de la hoya
    tyson
    chavez

    again, no order



    fastest:
    camacho
    jones
    gamboa (yeah, he's green, but his speed is superhuman)
    tyson
    whitaker


    i flew through these. i'll probably kick myself for some omissions later.
    and none of them are in order


    if anybody wants to go through power i'd love to see people's selections.

    i started to make one on pure talent, but it proved too difficult to whittle it down to five in a reasonable amount of time.
    Power?

    Jackson
    Mcclellan
    Tyson
    Benn
    Hamed

    Again just threw that out real quick and am open to change

          id switch benn's name out for pacquiao and that would likely be my list as well.


          some scary hitters on that list

            I'll put Whittaker in there and replace Floyd.... I'll agree with you there. But Kostya was one of my all-time favourites of the last twenty years..... I believe he'd have ripped De LaHoya apart, and a lot of WW's,... but I'm a little bit disappointed by his management... they were rubbish,... especially Vlad Warton........ worst management of a fighter I know of... With a smart team, Kostya would have been twice as great.

                Tszyu was a great fighter no doubt. But not top 5 on my list. JMO.

                  Damn it ur right, Trinidad is in over Benn. Cant believe i forgot him!

                  Im not putting Valero in, i know u rate him big time but boxing is about levels and we never saw what his power would be like up a level really. I cant put him in over G Man who was a devastator

                    Id have liked to see him in with more big names and up at WW. I think he tanks alot of em, Zoo was a beast

                      I think Benn might just pip Pacquaio in the pure power stakes. JMO

                      Manny had Real one punch power with that left down in weight tho, he's carried his power up to a point. As in he's still knocking guys out and hurting much bigger men but he's not the puncher he was down in weight

                      Not that i hold that against him! Guy was once a Flyweight FFS! lol
