current crop of fighters... since if we were considering all-time, i think our lists would be pretty similar. but im sure current crop would bring debates.

Footwork - pac (in & out + lateral movement); rigo

Balance - ward / bute

Jab - cotto / wlad (solid piston-like); trout (nice busy pace)

Right-cross - wlad / vitali (simply devastating)

Hooks - matthysse (scary power) / canelo (hook to the body is art)

Overhand-punches - stevenson... i guess. or maidana

Counter-punching - floyd (consistently impeccable) / jmm (landed the most perfect counter against pac)

Head-movement - sergio

Slipping punches - ?

Cutting off the ring - matthysse / GGG

Ring Generalship - sergio

let the debates begin. i honestly couldnt pick just 1 for some categories.

I am doing current boxers only

Footwork - Pac, he became the great in this era due to perfecting his movement via his prime

Balance - andre ward

Jab - Wlad

Right-cross - hmm tough one, gotta go with Floyd I would say, the guy does not even jab these days, his right cross is just as accurate

Hooks - Tough one, not really impressed with many boxers who specialize in hooks at the moment

Overhand-punches - Again, currently are there many out there these days? a few boxers use these a bit I suppose, floyd, martinez, marquez and I think ggg at times, maybe maidana?

Counter-punching - Definitely Marquez, pound for pound best counter puncher I would say, floyd is a close second

Head-movement - Canelo

Slipping punches - Floyd

Cutting off the ring - Pac

Ring Generalship - Floyd
