I would say Antuofermo. Light punching brawler, yet took Hagler 15 rounds by virtue of will and toughness. Who do you think got to the top against the odds and in spite of his own limitations?
Wayne McCullough, Tata Baldomir, Paulie Ayala, Little Bull Diaz and currently gotta give a shout out to Paulie MMM and Bradley.
I'm a big fan of the zero power type guys. The brains over brawn types that get all their results with everything other than power. The 35-0 with 5 ko's guys. Sven Ottke didn't have a ton of tools in the toolchest when you look closely. but the guy got himself in terrific shape. Top shelf defense. And he could keep those hands up all 12 rounds--how many guys do that? And he had that great boxing radar for incoming punches. About impossible to catch clean with a punch. And he had absolute minimal punching power himself. I can't say how many picture perfect counters I saw the guy land. Absolutely perfect. They did nothing as far as damage is concerned. but the guy knew how to win. Got 100% out of what he had in a sport dominated by potential. Or unrealized potentail. but just go ahead ahead and subtract punching power from a fighter and insert Sven Ottke power instead. Now, try imagine that guy is undefeated. I can't.
John Ruiz. Not very fast, not very accurate, not very active, not extremely strong, not a huge HW, not a huge puncher, average chin, average stamina. What he was good at was getting away with holding, holding and hitting, wrestling, and other rough tactics... except for when he fought Roy Jones Jr. Had the ref let him do his usual thing would things have been different? He had heart and kept his cool pretty well. He seemed to fall in shlt often but usually came up smelling like roses. He really got knocked around the ring in all 3 fights with Holyfield but managed not to get a KD scored against him and went 1-1-1 vs. the future Hall of Famer. He got a DQ win over Kirk Johnson who seemed the better fighter. Rahman took Ruiz lightly and lost by decision. He managed to stop Fres Oquendo after a major struggled against him. He was dropped twice and got a gift vs. Golota. He was outboxed by Toney but the fight was changed to a NC due to Toney's positive drug test... by this time he actually started growing on some people. He lost to Valuev (MD) and Chagaev (SD) in Germany but gave them both a struggle. He went on to clearly beat McCline by decision before loing another close decision to Valuev. A past prime Ruiz was stopped in 9 by Haye and to Ruiz' credit he has not fought since. He is actually eligible for Hall of Fame consideration next year. I always wanted Lewis to KTFO of Ruiz but that fight never happened.
