    For myself it's fighters like ODLH and Shane Moseley. In their prime those guys had every punch in the book and threw them in high numbered combinations. I often think of fighters whose fights I would go back and watch over and over. I know mayweather was sublimely skilled but I can't think of any of his fights that I would want to revisit.

      It's a general consensus that SRR was the greatest boxer to ever live, while RJJ had the highest peak of anyone in the sport.

          Ray Leonard or Roy Jones Jr. In their primes they were near unbeatable

            De La Hoya barely had a right hand so he definitely didn’t have every punch in the book.

              I think from an athletic point of view Roy Jones was about the most gifted overall whereas Sugar Ray Robinson had the best blend of speed, power and excellent technique.

              Purely from a technical aspect I think you’d be hard pressed to find many more with the pure technique and skill set of Eder Jofre.
