best dirty boxer.

I was a Tyson fan but he was one of the dirtiest I ever seen.

Tyson used his elbows to great effect...Dempsey also. It kind of makes sense considering that when throwing a punch and missing, better to hit the guy with something than just miss for so many reasons.

Your in for it now, you have made a claim that a cruiserweight/ heavyweight is great... Making such a claim will now render you a Troll, an idiot, a clown and every other insult possible. The "SIZE GEEKS" will be on your case, claiming: He was not big enough, not tall enough, not heavy enough

Holyfield wasn't top ten greatest heavyweights of all time but he had the second best resume in heavyweight history, perhaps top 5 resumes in boxing history

[NChristo]

Duran has too be up there.

This is true but he is rivalled by Evander "Buttfield" LOL

[BattlingNelson]

Impossible question to answer.

Anyway Fritzie Zivic has to be up there. Also Mysterious Billy Smith, Battling Nelson, Ad Wolgast and so many others. Some more dirty than others. Some achieved more than others. How to rank that, I don't know.

Top 3 all time

Yusuf Mack...

Sucked 2 beef whistles at once. It doesn't get much more dirty.

[Marcello]

Wladimir got away with a lot. Just because the refs ignored it doesn't mean it didn't happen.

[just the facts]

Maidana, Wilfredo Gomez, tough question.

Forgot Bradley & Hopkins!

But jake Lamotta is worth mentioning!

Gomez? Not that I've seen
