    Sam Langord & bunch of other oldtimers
    Rocky Marciano,
    Roberto Duran.
    If summarize - there is place to every lucky ironchined brawler.

    Completely agree with this. Especially Frazier who is the most relentless heavyweight hands down - hard to be so aggressive every minute if you're a bigger man. He could carry his power later too (not many people would have survived that shot he put Ali down with in the 15th in the FOTC). I'd put Hatton in there too in his prime and a lightweight Duran and the version who beat Leonard in Montreal. Nice pick with Roldan there! Not many people know about him but he was an absolute animal - a very strong man and hard puncher who just went out there to kill you. Only guy to put Hagler down if I am remembering right. Good shout.

    Lamotta was the bravest Boxer I have ever seen.

    Henry Armstrong. That guy would never stop attacking.

    What about Gatti and Ward from their trilogy alone?

    All the fore mentioned are good picks but Johhny Tapia comes to mind, can't believe nobody has mentioned his name.
    The way he went up on the ring and walked up to Paulie Ayala and pushed him before their fight, that **** was priceless. The look in Paulie's face was awesome, Im sure he was like WTF!!!! haha

    Lamon Brewster...


    But seriously, Lamotta and Frazier leap out at the mind...

    Lots of others though, too numerous to mention...

    I forgot La Motta - I'd add him too. Not much you could do to stop him short of taking a hammer into the ring with you.

    Armstrong is the correct answer. Perpetual motion in action.
