Who is the closest fighter ever to being perfect?

[LoadedWraps]

If you were to build the 'perfect boxer', which fighter in history would be most similar? We are talking attributes here, not achievements!

Id vote for DLH and Toney over half of that list, but since neither is on that list, I went with Robinson.

[Elroy The Great]

True, but does Floyd have the power you would like in a 'perfect fighter'? His style and record is perfect, as you said..

pre ww may was a beast. even with brittle hands.

LOL I didn't know this thread was back.

people still calling Jones smh

Because it is Jones. Point. Blank. Period.

may made it look so easy pre ww. speed, power, intelligence, chin, stamina, and defense. all this with defective hands. i tend to like fighters in the bigger div (up to mw) and may wasnt the beast he was when he moved up so i had to go with srr.

Mayweather at any weight.

[yngwie]

Michael Nunn deserves a mention, awesome speed, tall, southpaw, educated hands, perfect footwork, head movement on point, power, capable of fight at any distance, good chin, in his prime he was untouchable.

[M Bison]

No mention of Sven Ottke rigged poll If you ask me.

Oh yes, Jones was perfect

All natural

Just a perfect fighter

Prime Ray Leonard pretty much ticks all the boxes.

Good height and reach for a welterweight
Blazing fast
Very good puncher
Great killer instinct against top opposition
Underrated Body puncher
Good inside fighting
Complete punch repertoire
Can fight 15 tough rounds

Much as I don't like him, that's my answer, too. I've seen Ray Leonard do everything, and I've seen him do it against the best of the best. He didn't have a glaring weak point.

Robinson without a doubt but there's someone notable that's AWOL from the list that might have gotten my ballot: Ricardo Lopez

just maybe.

Robinson was tested to show his full potential and shined. Lopez was so dominant and talented that no one ever brought out the best in him
