The Most Physically Talent Fighter Since 1990

The most physically gifted was Roy Jones Jr
The most talented fighter Floyd Mayweather Jr

tyson had some bad physical traits like his shortness that dq him although he was a genetic freak.

Id say RJJ too, the guy was ridiculous.

Jones was juiced up to the gills.

In amateur fights he didn't have speed and reflexes like that, though he was quite quick and did actually appear more technical (though threw far too many hooks).. it just wasn't the same though, that **** wasn't natural.

i think thats cuz jones was supposed to be a southpaw and his jab was more like a fling so he just threw hooks .. but he def was on something

Juiced or not, it's Roy, without question.

I agree with this.



Nobody mentioned Ike Ibeabuchi?! Aside from being a fine physical specimen, he's the only guy, aside from a prime Tyson, who threw combinations in the heavies...and did I say he's got mad power too? but, such a waste...

All I have to say is Jermain "good intentions" should not be on the physically gifted list, he should though be on the gift decision list he's gotten 3 of those in his last 3 fights!

I put Jermaine on the list because he has 2 wins and a draw against 2 extremely skilled veterans using almost nothing but raw talent.

Jermaine is not skilled and wins on pure talent against excellent competition, if that doesn't get him a nomination its hard to say what will.

However I am mixed about who I would put as #1. I would say either RJJ or Hamed. They were both succesful doing things that you shouldn't be able to do in boxing. Hamed had incredible power throwing out of weird semioffbalance stances and at akward angles.

pacquiao got that all!power,speed,chin,stamina and heart!so i would say pacman!

That is a very good choice Manny does have all of those qualities other than he is a little guy. He has all the tools.
