BEST OVERALL FIGHTER: Wiflredo Benitez
He proved to be identical to me as far as offense and defense. It was like looking into a mirror...I ended up going to hospital after that fight, no energy. That was teh closest thing to death for me, you know? He was the epitome of what a fighter should be.
BEST BOXER: Wiflredo Benitez
A classic boxer with a capitol "B". He was the epitome of what a pure boxer should be. He never really got credit for the sort of bexer he was. He was a real tactician. He was a real boxer.
BEST PUNCHER: Roberto Duran
Duran's punches were like stone...i've never been hit and hurt to the body pretty much by anyone except Duran. Yeah, Roberto Duran.
BEST DEFENCE: Floyd Mayweather Sr.
It was Mayweather, even though I eventually got through it, it was Mayweather...I was almost unable to penetrate it.
FASTEST HANDS: Tommy Hearns.
He could hit you cleanly with a lead-off right.
FASTEST FEET: Tommy Hearns
Tommy Hearns again. Surprisingly, Tommy hearns. I had to become a puncher against him.
BEST CHIN: Marvin Hagler
Granite. Just granite. Has he even meeb knocked down? I saw him rocked by Mugabi. I sam him rocked by Hearns. Even Obelmemias rocked him. But I've never seen any signs of him repreesenting the true definition of being hurt.
BEST JAB: Tommy Hearns.
Piston like jab. It was delivered with speed. It hurt. It was accurate. It was like a right hand. It was almsot always on target. Tommy could have beaten Marvin Hagler with that jab.
STRONGEST: Marcos Geraldo.
When I beat that guy, in that small ring, with that eldery referee, God bless him, I knew that I could beat anybody. Did you see him when he hurt me? That fight resonated with me. It gave me the msot confidence. When that guy hurt me bad, I took some shots.

Glen Johnson
Glen Johnson:
Best overall: Bernard Hopkins*
On that, I think I would go with Bernard Hopkins. I think that Chad Dawson was a good boxer and has a lot of skills and talent. But I don't think that in Hopkins prime, and with his mind set, (that Dawson was) as mature as Bernard Hopkins to do what he needed to do to beat you. In his prime I don't think Chad Dawson would have beaten Bernard Hopkins. Not at all.*
Best boxer: Chad Dawson*
The most complete boxer was probably Chad Dawson. I just think that he was able to move around the ring very well. I think that he's a solid guy who was able to throw combinations off his movement. I would go with him in that cat.
Best Jab: Chad Dawson
Probably Chad Dawson. He punches out of the south paw stance with a good jab. He uses it well and it's pretty strong. I have a lot of respect for his jab. **
Best defense: Bernard Hopkins*
He was very hard to hit. I hardly got a chance to put hands on him when we fought, and even afterwards, when sparred.
Best chin: Carl froch
I would say that because I hit him flush and clean without any interruption and with no block on the punch. No nothing. It was clean on the chin. Boom! But he didn't go anywhere. Ive hit other people with the same shot and I got a reaction or something. Either I hurt them or could see that they were rocked. But him I hot flush and.....his reaction was the same as if he had gotten hit with any other punch I had thrown. He wasn't hurt, at least not visibly anyway.*
Best puncher: Tavoris Cloud*
That goes to Cloud. I just think that he was the best puncher. He was able to get good leverage on his punches, and I just think that he hit me the hardest.*
Fastest feet: Hopkins*
I would have to say Bernard, because he was always just an inch or two from where I thought he was going to be. He was always able to dictate the space between he and I when we fought.*
Fastest hands: Roy jones jr
Fastest hands would be Roy jones. Roy Jones could move his hands from point A to point B quicker than anybody I've been in the ring with. He just doesn't throw a lot of combinations. He would throw one or two shots, but he would throw those two shots very fast. From where I saw when I was attacking him and between when he reacted and moved his punches and got his punches off, that was faster than anybody I've ever fought.*
Smartest: Hopkins*
That's Bernard again. He just always knows what he's doing, and he's always in tune with what he's doing more then anybody else. Bernard just always seems like he has a better understanding *of what he needed to do and exactly when he needed to do it. So I just think that he was the smartest of all of the guys that I fought.*
Strongest: Cloud
That would have to be Cloud. That's the strongest guy. I think that he's physically strong, and his punches are strong as we'll.*
