            Yeah I forgot Toney for defense. Doesn't seem to do much, but is hard to hit.

                Roy was unorthodox, but nearly impossible to hit because of Speed. I see Zab going the same way towards the end of his career - bad KO's, as soon as his speed goes

                    Gosh, where to start, too many to name. Well here's some for Offense: Marvelous Marvin Hagler(the guy was a freakin' punching machine), Iron Mike Tyson(need I say more, and Roberto Duran(monster). As for defense I think there aren't as many great defensive fighters as there are offensive fighters, anyway here's one for defense I think this guy has to top my list and that's Pernell Whitaker(the guy was simply untouchable), Marvin Hagler( In my eyes he lost to Leonard but as quick as Leonard was he picked off 99.9% of those punches, and Holyfield( just very technically sound on both ends)
