    who wants to watch the perfect fighter anyway?

    i've always had a soft spot for fighters who have power but weak defense. they keep me on edge the whole fight because he can knock out or be knocked out at any second (ie corrales, gatti).

            Floyd Patterson had the fastest handspeed ever on a lb4lb basis, a 200lb man shouldn't of had handspeed as fast as that.

            I suppose quickest reflexes would go to Roy Jones Jr.

                louis' footwork? you mean the slow and plodding footwork of joe louis? and you would take julian jackson's power (of all people) over jack dempseys or rocky marciano's or joe louis' or earnie shavers or george foreman?

                  Many today do not appreciate or understand how fundamentally flawless Joe Louis was. Some think of him as having poor footwork and lacking the maneuverability of some more modern champions such as Muhammad Ali or Larry Holmes. However "good footwork" means more than dancing around like a bunny rabbit to avoid punches. Footwork was used by Joe Louis to cut the ring by stepping forward and then drawing opponents into his punches by making subtle steps back. By pressing forward, inch by inch he would close the distance on his opponents and then by stepping back Louis would appear vulnerable, but when his opponent's moved in they were setting themselves up for his lethal counter-punches. Footwork can be used to create and close distance for balanced punching, not just dancing away as some fans think today.

                    On a lb4lb basis yeah. Jackson was probably the best one-punch KO artist I've seen.
