    Who are the first boxers that come to mind when the word "class" is mentioned?

    Who are the classiest in the history of the sport, inside and outside the ring?

    It certainly gets a lot classier than beating your wife until she nearly dies on more than one occasion.

    Not classy.

    Arguello first that comes to mind, but Louis, Patterson, Sanchez, Finito, and Marciano were/are pure class.
