        you see we can't have a civil conversation because you say ******ed shit.


        I'm only going to reply this time because i'm sure you'll find some troll response of you will somehow twist what I say....


        Meldrick Taylor had the fastest hands in Boxing history ... IMO faster than Leonard and Roy Jones, Pacquiao and Camacho


        now JCC was a straight forward fighter ... similar to Margarito or a Rios he went forward but he actually had head movement he could caught of the ring and knew how to utilize his punches. He was an accurate puncher

        a somewhat Textbook fighter. So yes he was a technician...

        Technician =/= defensive... just because he got hit with feather fisted punches by of the fastest boxers in the history of the sport does not mean he wasn't a technical boxer .

        I suggest you watch more fights other than the Taylor fight.


        now to adress "Pacquiao >>>> JCC" I never once said JCC was better than Pacquiao I said he was a better boxer than Pacquiao which he clearly is... he was more skilled than Pacquiao . I'm not saying Pacquiao isn't skilled. He just isn't @ JCC's level when it comes to skills.

            haye doesn't have footwork (running around the edge of the ring doesn't count in my book) or any kind of balance. i think they're fundamental basic skills for a boxer.

                  Honestly. I can only put 3. Because they are definite and it's large gaps between them and everyone else. Everyone else is too close together so I can't choose a 4 and 5.

                  Dre ward. More skill than bhop? Thats why you're burner jr. He does nothijg better than bhop, especially if we're talkijg aboit the last decade.

                    JMM

                    The fifth slot is hard to fill as there has been a lot of skilled boxers over the last decade. However, I think I'll give it to Donaire, just because he's still an active fighter.

                      bro, i was joking about the about the" jcc got hit more in one round than pac in two fights' comment..but my point is pac's defense is better now than any version of chavezs, pac is easily more elusive...only thing i know chavez is better than pac is close range fighting ....oh ive seen lots of his fights...prollly all of his notable fights and a bit more...
