    Winky was also a good pressure fighter, as weird as that sounds.

      Pac is the greatest. There are other pressure fighters who only pressure and cant do anything else. But that dont even mean they are any good at pressure fighting, with lack of resume to back it up.

      He really put the heat on Barrera, and Morales earlier in his career and they couldnt take the heat. JMM couldnt take the heat also so went into survival mode and it helped him immensely. Clottey and SSM also fought like theyd never fought cos the heat was too much.
      Pac makes fighters act weird and strange.

        I'd say the best pressure fighters of the last decade were Jose Luis Castillo, Ricky Hatton, Israel Vazquez, and Glenncoffe Johnson
        I agree with this post only Margarito and Paul Williams should be mentioned as well.

          Not weird at all, he was a good body puncher as well. Better pressure fighter than a lot of the names mentioned on this thread. Cotto earlier in his career was a very good pressure fighter, he applied it intelligently, cut off the ring well. Juan Diaz, considering the names that have been mentioned, is another one.
