    Good calls. An intelligent boxer-puncher with blistering hand speed excellent power and killer instinct. Someone like prime SRL would figure highly. But for raw animal intensity and a fantastic mix of skill, murderous power and sheer nastiness I would pick prime Duran. What a beast he was. The first SRL-Duran fight was spectacular.

    :lol:

    It simply has to be Manny. He is the only fighter ever capable of losing a fight comfortably in "real time" and winning the same fight in slow-motion.

    Guys who will go through hell to win the fight. Guys like Hagler and Morales come to mind.

    A fighter is a composition of athleticism, skill and heart. All three matter. But I most admire the spirit. To take it all but give it all back.

    Technicians. I like counter punchers the best because they bring out the scientific aspect of the sport instead of just two guys beating the hell out of eachother until someone falls out.

    What about morales and barrera trilogy. You have two all time great technicians. Their precision and accuracy is mind numbing. They still beat the hell out of each other.

    you can practice the sweet science and still hurt.

    I just want to see a good fight. George Foreman is my favourite.

    Other than that, KO power, Speed, Footwork, Heart. Entertainment.

    So I guess boxer puncher or slugger.

    Iron Chinned boxers who are not scared to take a punch in order to give one. Who will fight anyone, anywhere, anytime. They are the pinnacle of the sport. No handpicking, no ridiculous 'catchweight' fights no hiding behind their promoter like a Glass Jawed *****.

    I love watching recordings of those guys' fights (I was too young to watch them live).

    Anything aggressive. Go forward or counter as long as they are wanting a KO without going over the top desperate.
