    In no particular order

    Top 5 courageous: LaMotta, Ali, Armstrong, Corrales... toss up
    Top 5 Handspeed : Ali, Rjj, Ray Robinson, Patterson, all those flyweights
    Top 5 Punchers : Shavers, Foreman, Moore, Joe Louis and... Malignaggi
    Top 5 smartest : Whitaker, Floyd Mayweather, Lennox Lewis, Ali....Hopkins?
    Top 5 elusive : Pep, Whitaker, Benny Leonard, Ali (prime) and Gatti
    Top 5 Chins : Chuvalo, LaMotta, Foreman, Pryor and Ali

    Well, I can only rate those I'm familiar with. Haven't seen too much old stuff, as there's absolutly no boxing on television in Norway.

          Yep, I do.

          I just don't believe that Tyson should be on any of those lists. Could argue that he should be in top 5 hardest punchers, but he didn't knock out any of the A-list fighters in the 90's.
          I'm a realist, not a nuthugger, so I call it as I see it

            There are many fighters just as fast as Roy Jones Jr, Ray Leonard being one of them.

              A-list fighters? I didnt know Tyson's career started in the 90s. I could of swore he was knocking out top contenders and(at that time)A-list fighters in the 80s,could be wrong though. And your top 5 best in the 80s list?haha, Tyson built his rep around the world on what he did in the 80's.

              I think you need to change your name to something else,cause you clearly dont know enough about the man.
