    Midget Wolgast is pretty mad.

    So is Jimmy Wilde.

    Great shout with Jimmy Wilde. Benny Lynch is another with a unique style. He had springs for legs. He looked extremely gifted and extremely wild at the same time.

    Chris Eubank had all that "karate psych" stuff at the start of fights.....and sometimes lapsed into it
    in the middle of fights too.

    Ali moved in a way haven't seen, a lot of fighters tried to copy him but they couldn't even copy his shuffle.
    The only fighter that comes close in movement for 15 rounds is Pastrano.

    Crisanto Espana is the weirdest I've seen, a freakish construction with a huge back & arms that belonged to a deep sea squid
