    We always hear about other fighters having trouble with or avoiding African American sliksters.

    Just so we know who the top slick black fighters, please list them here by weight class. I'll start at 140 light welterweight, but free to start as low as you want.

    Note: any black boxer based in the Americas can be accepted, doesn't have to be US citizen, just need to be established contender who is well known.

    Here's a few I can think of at the top of my head:

    140 - Judah, Alexander(maybe not), maybe Bradley although he has a style not so typical of a slick boxer

    147 - Mayweather

    154 -

    160 -

    168 - Dirrell, Ward

    175 - Dawson, Hopkins

    190 - Cunningham

    200+ Toney, Chambers

    Please add to the list

    The only thing slick about Alexander is his promoter's ability to rig 3 of his last 4 fights.

    Well maybe he shouldn't be on the list. He does come from the Midwest doesn't he, so that usually automatically qualifies you as a slick fighter.

    Although on a serious note, before Bradley, maybe kotelnik I'm sure many wouldn't hesitate in putting him in that category, he had a real sharp jab and decent movement.
