    Jimmy Young was a real good heavy who beat George Foreman and gave Ali a real tough fight. Jimmy had no power but was a really slick boxer.

        He was a natural middleweight.


        Jake LaMotta comes to mind. 83 wins and 30 KO's.

              i'd also like to note that even though whitaker had few ko's when he really sat down on a punch he could hurt you. he always chose to win on his terms, though. he wasn't one to take many risks. when he did he was usually flattened on his ass.
