    My list was based on fighters I’d actually watched in the flesh...

        Yeah I seen yours, must’ve been incredible seeing guys like Holmes and Foreman, they would have definitely made my all time list for Jab and Strongest.

          As far as Floyd goes did u predict he would win all his fights? Even against the fastest fighter uve ever seen? Did u make a killing betting on Floyd to always win? I’m not trying to bust ur b*lls, uve got plenty rep. I’m just always curious if guys think Floyd’s overrated as a fighter and better opposition would prove that? I just want to know when someone says he was the biggest cherrypicker how good their predictions were on his fights? Cause in all honesty the guy who got it right is the guy I’m interested in telling us who would have beat him? This is an honest question and I’m meaning no offence. My brother used to say Kahn beats him.
          I don’t think anyone from his own generation beats him, especially not Paul Williams or Margarito like some people suggest.

          I’m convinced Tommy Hearns would’ve beat him convincingly though, I just don’t know how Floyd deals with that length, power and accuracy.

          I’d also pick Leonard and Robinson to beat him.

                yep...some good names there as well...Julian Jackson now comes to mind for best puncher as well

                  I never got round to watching RJJ in the flesh bro, I’m British so was always too young to travel over to America to watch him in his prime. I was tempted to go to New York to watch him face Calzaghe, but I knew he was so far past his prime at that point so decided against it.

                  If I was doing an all time list, I’d have picked Roy for fastest hands and feet for sure.
                  Got ya man...I see what you were doing now...impressive list to have seen live!

                    Jackson is up there for sure. Without question the best non HW puncher there’s ever been IMO. Possibly the hardest puncher p4p of all time
