  • Who was the greatest boxer of all time, excluding genetics?

    So it cant eb a guy that got by on advantageous genes like the sugars, roy jones jr, etc


    Willie Pep?

    • No offense but so much of the technique of a fighter is based upon his genetics that it is impossible to remove the two.

      Even a guy like Pep had freakish reflexes. Chin, power, reach, speed and reflexes to a certain extent are all tied to genetics so trying to remove the genetic factor is pointless.What a fighter does with whatever gifts they have is how you craft a style that works for an individual.

      A guy with absolutely no genetic gifts will not be fighting at a world level.

            • Has there ever been a time where they threw say a welterweight in with a heavyweight?

              To see what would happen?

              Id love to see that Ricky hatton vs Tyson or something would be epic for the first round

              I like Hatton hes just perfect a go get in there type of exciting fighter to match up with Tyson

                    Wow that was amazing.

                    If only Shaq had the basic power mechanics down or hips down.

                    Any of a proper HW boxer? The closest I could find was Ali vs a MW and Dempsey blasting out a huge guy which is the opposite
