In our 50's, which boxer we will still be talking about?
Collapse
-
Tito Trinidad- Pretty self explanatory
RJJ- Skill/ reflex
Manny P.- Speed combinations and always game for war.
Gatti/Ward- For a warriors instinct.
Cotto- For fighting anyone they put in front of him and meaning it.
DLH- For his musical career
Floyd- For what "could have been" if he had the heart to fight the best at their best when the "best" was besting each other while Floyd opted for vacation.
JMM- Counter punching ability/skill.
Mosley- Body punching, speed, and never taking a backward step.
Paul Williams- His volume punching ability without never seeming to be out of breath, and of course heart.
Eric Morales/Barrera- Both fighters upholding the tradition to what Mexican boxing is all about.
Naz- His awkward punching power and his in ring/out of ring antics.
Tyson- For breathing life in a heavyweight division after the Ali era and doing so brutally.
Holyfield/Bowe- Two fighters that were like trains ready to collide.
Lennox Lewis- For his undisputed reign in the post Tyson era.
David Tua- For having a left hook that would move a semi.
And that's it for now...

maybe both??... it's really not about the accomplishments cause by now boxing fans know how tainted titles and boxing accolades are in this era. so i believe which ever boxer has the most enjoyable fights to "RE-watch" will be more talked about.

i think in 50 years the klitschkos will be remembered most for being brothers. i think that their brotherhood will outweigh even the weakness of the division. that's what they'll be remembered for
two brothers dominated the division for almost a decade. that's pretty damn remarkable. pretty damn cool, too.
any ATG level fighter is going to be talked about in 50 years by the right people
trinidad
hopkins
jones
mayweather
pacquiao
