  • Seems to me that many of the great boxers were street fighters first. Roberto Duran was rumored to have knocked out a donkey..lol. Tyson was a thug street fighter, so was George Foreman. Michael Carbajal was active in the 9th st. gang in phx during most of his career and after, he was caught on video beating a on duty cop. In contrast Ali, Leonard, and a few others probably never had a street fight in their lives.
    I think a good street fighter makes a better ring fighter. There are boxers, and there are fighters.

        There are stories that he used to take out four or five at once,on the street.
        Nigel Benn's brother was meant to be even harder than he was! I know Nigel was pretty high up in the Kickboxing rankings before he switched to Boxing

          • Ingle used to take a young Herol Graham round the roughest pubs in Sheffield and bet people cash that they couldn't lay a glove on him.

                • If I had to choose from a boxer right now it'd be Edison Miranda, he's a beast.

                  From the HW's I'd choose Samuel Peter as a good streetfighter.

                    I sure as hell wouldn't want to deal with an angry Miranda in a street fight. That guy grew up the hard way and probably fears nothing.

                    • Bernard Hopkins because if you started to win he'd shank ya with a toothbrush he melted down into a blade.
