    Joe Louis is the obvious choice, but Jack Dempsey, Bob Foster, and Roberto Duran are also up there. Juan Manuel Marquez for today's fighters.

    ****ing loads with different styles of doing it. Duran, Chavez, Pryor, Hearns, Taylor, Leonard, Camacho and Tyson are up there but for me the best are Ray Robinson and Joe Louis.

    The combos he put together on Charles in fight 1 was insane. One continuous never ending combination!

    And Charles himself was a very good combination puncher.

    Jose Napoles... Very Smooth with it...

    Jerry Quarry... Perhaps not an Obvious choice...But when he had someone Hurt
    Spencer.. Foster.. Shavers.. and a Rally against Norton.. Jerry C Could really string them together..

    Ali
    Tyson
    Hearns

    Those are the ones who immediately spring to mind, but not the only ones, of course.

    Conn's combos vs Louis and God knows how many of his other opponents were pretty damned nice!
