    JMM is clearly the best offensive fighter today. No one throws combinations like he does!

      Julio Cesar Chavez.

      We know this because he won over 100 fights showing no defense.

        If we count chin and defense, then there's only one prime James Toney.
        What about Hagler? He most defiently had a granit chin

            Miguel Cotto duz absaloutley everything great offensively, his only liabilities hav been in defence. Cuts off the ring GREAT, Jabs well, Monster hooks, Good cross, Murderous body puncher, Fantastic on the inside, completley relentless and can do it from Orthodox or Southpaw stance!

            Aaron Pryor, JCC, G Man, Tyson, Louis, the list go's on!

              I've seen JULIO CHAVEZ and MARVIN HAGLER, don't know how the hell they can beat mentioned for best offensive fighters. When you talk about pure offense, HEARNS NORRIS AND TAYLOR come to mind for me. Good offensive fighters Norris had a ****ty chin, Taylor was light handed, Hearns had stamnia like a 250 pound heavyweight

                Undoubtedly Hearns comes to mind. If he didnt have such a crappy chin, he would have pretty much never lost...except maybe to Hagler. he had some unbelievable punches.

                If Terry Norris could have taken shots well, he would have blasted away most of his opponents too without worrying. he had a huge arsenal.

                Julian Jackson too, what a terrible chin he had. not sure if he had the overall offensive arsenal to win all the fights, but having great defence and a better chin would have made him near unstoppable.

                most people havent seen a lot of JCC fights if they think hes unbelievable offensively. now, he was very economical and could place shots very well, but he didnt have unbelievable power or threw fantastic combinations...he got hit sometimes, but his defence was actually very good. the HBO guys kept going on about it after they called him p4p #1.

                    Tyson was. Power in both hands, speed and explosion all in one. Good ****.

                      Sugar Ray Robinson, anyone?

                      Seriuosly noe one mentoned him, but he was an awesome offensive machine, in fact his defense is overrated, or at least he did not bother use it much, unless you count knocking people out while moving backwards as defense... LOL

                      Roberto Duran?
