    Mike Tyson.

    He was explosive. Mike had the rare blend of power and agility for a big man along with an iron chin. Very good handspeed.

    At last someone tries to clarify this mess of a topic.

    Best physique for boxing:
    p4p: Jones as a middleweight
    heavy: i concur with Ali

    Most ripped/best mr universe type: don't know/completely pointless

    How many other people do you know who look like Bernard at 47??

    Regardless of his IQ he still moves better and quicker than fighters half his age.

    And they are both PHD's. They should put them out to stud and build a master race.

    Thats true of course, hopkins has taken really good care of himself thats why he is still physicallly able to compete but its mostly his ring iq imo that carries him, his body is basically done thats why you wont see him ko anyone and he needs to take rests by clinching or fake getting rabbitpunched.
    Hopkins doesnt stand out as a physically great, take a way the iq and he would have been ko'd by pascal in 2.
    In his prime he also didnt stand out for that like jones, tyson or hearns did.
