      Uhhhh, Winky Wright... the guy who wouldn't have an offense absent counterpunching.

        Evander Holyfield and Oscar de la Hoya had the heavyweight champ and the p4p champ respectively running all night in fear of counterpunching, I'd say those two make the list.

            Can't mess with a prime Juan Manuel Marquez. Even now he is still at the top of the list.

            Rocky makes an honerable mention. Lately he's become way obbsessed on counter punching.

            Holyfield was a baddass counter puncher too but he would take one or two, to counter punch, nothing wrong with that when you're winning.

              Active: Oscar and Calzaghe. Recent inactive: Holyfield was one of the best I ever saw, along with Tszyu.

                God damnit, as soon as I saw that you had responded to this thread, I knew Tszyu's name was going to be mentioned.

                Don't give me a lecture, because I'm not saying it's wrong... I just knew it was going to be there.

                  Tszyu is the most effective counterpucher in the history of boxing forgot about him.

                  Marquez is a combo counterpunch and well as Salvador Sanchez is a good counter puncher

                    Juan Manual Marquez, Winky Wright, or Chad Dawson hands down are the best counter punchers in the game.
