Who Was The Best 'Swarmer'/Pressure Fighter In History?

Henry Armstrong. Absolutely relentless, skillful, tough and athletic.
For Joe Frazier to be able to pull of the style at 205lbs is also astonishing.Comment

Henry Armstrong
How many pressure fighters will ever be able to win titles from 126-147 and be able to hang with middleweights
Most pressure fighters don't do well moving up in weight or fighting certain styles
he went on a tear with over 50 wins and close to that amount of knockouts fighting very good opposition
Add into the fact he had fast legs, great head movement, a great chin, and could roll punches very well, didn't smother his work, could throw every punch in the book.....he is the prototype of a pressure fighterComment

^^^^great mention....Frazier fights a lot like Armstrong, except Armstrong used that sneaky over hand right and uppercuts more often inside whereas Frazier was hell with hooks
both had underrated defense. Frazier made Ali miss more than any fighter he ever shared a ring with, even taunted Ali in fight 1.Comment
