    Who have you got?

    Andre ward with his crafty headbutts that will split you open(and are perfectly legal according to him becuase his never got a point deduction for it ) and his clinching

    Salido - fighting him is a painful alternative to a vasectomy

    Broner - clinch, fake injury , clinch ,fake injury and repeat

    Hopkins - the master of the old school boxing tricks ( or blatant cheating to the non brain damaged)

    Mayweather with his sneaky elbows. Also Roberto Garcia comes to mind.

    Fritzie Zivic, Sandy Saddler, Billy Papke, Bernard Hopkins. Although, it's kind of hard to think of a popular boxer whom I haven't seen do something illegal in the ring be it Ali backhanding Frazier, Roy Jones hitting Montell Griffin while he was down, Duran low blowing Ken Buchanan, Evander Holyfield hitting after the break at the Olympics, Mayweather sucker punching Gatti and Ortiz, Tyson biting Holyfield's ears off, Golota repeatedly low blowing Bowe, etc.

    They should have counted as scoring blows lep. As ward says if you don't get a point deduction for it then it's totally legal. So if the refs back is turned and you grab a hammer from your coach at ring side and wack your opponent with it it's perfectly legal and good old school tactics once you don't get a point deduction .

    Lewis, using his headbutts to cut his opponent and later on using his hair like a razor and rubbing it on the cut to open it as much as possible. One of the dirtiest strategies I've seen in my life.

    Andre Ward head butting the **** out of Kessler sticks in my mind, particularly given it put Kesslers career on the back burner for what, 18 months or so.
