    1. Holyfield - Has anyone seen the condition for someone who dont run?
    2. jeff lacy - quite simply awesome shape and voted best abs in bxing at 1 point
    3. Roy jones jr - extremly fit cardiovasculr ability and awesome abs
    4. calzage - took lacy, hopkins and jones jr to school for 12 flat out round awesome stamina
    5. Mayweather - has anyone seen this guy tired ?

    i dont think the slighty older generation ali etc , would last now as training has changed including supplements and etc. its moved on like any other sport, bodybuilders got bigger, sprinters got faster and swimmers cover more distance quicker.

    what you guys think ?
    Holyfield.. ROIDS
    LACY.. Roids
    Jones Jr .. Roids..

    Calzaghe.. freak of nature..
    Mayweather.. Fitness freak.. all natural.

      Lacy runs out of gas and seems sluggish, I wouldn't put him up there. Holyfield at over 210 lbs seems to run out of stamina as well. As a 190 lb cruiserweight he was in amazing condition.



      You don't think Ali compares but I'd say he was in better condition than any of the fighters you listed. In his prime he could go 15 rounds with ease.



      If you mean the way they look, I'd say Cleveland Williams.

          Ike Ibeabuchi, for his size, just seemed to be able to throw an incredible amount of punches. Just an exceptional physical specimen. Calzaghe can throw a hell of a lot of punches too, but they're not murderous punches like Ike's were.

            Bernard Hopkins. Thats probably why Hopkins is still doing it at 43 years of age. Hopkins fought Mercado at an altitude of 2000/3000 feet above sea level, and kept a tremendous pace. For a guy to be able to acclimatize so easily to those type of conditions and not get tired, tells me he has GREAT!! stamina.

            Strangeley enough it was Mercado who was getting tired and he is from Equador so WTF. Hopkins also kept a formidable pace in the second fight too before he stopped Mercado, Hopkins also kept a good pace against Glen Johnson too.

              Joe Calzaghe.

              Never seen stamina like it. The guy could fight a 100 rounds non stop and would still be as fresh as a daisy at the end of it.

              I've never seen him tired at an end of a fight, and when you consider all his biggest wins went the distance, that's some going.

                  This list should begin an end with Anthony Mollo. PERIOD.

                    I'd like to add Manny Pacquiao...can't say he's the best condition of all time but the work he puts in during training looks impressive..
