Rate these boxers

Don`t know much about Winstone other than the fact that he couldn`t punch, Mitchell was nowhere near Buchanan`s level, Ken proved more losing to Duran than Barry did beating Eusabio, but both men`s resume`s are far better than Mitchell`s because of those fights.

 

Buchanan
Winstone
Mcguigan
Mitchell

Found it hard to split the last two.

 

I would have to rate all these fighters relatively close on ability and rate them all very good not great fighters. Your very right on Winstone I do find him very underated. McGuigan action fighter very tough.KEN VERY GOOD LIGHT ,SKILLED BOXER.Unfortunetly ran in to Hands of stone. Truthfully don't know never seen Mitchell,just going by accounts in Ring magazine who I find very creditable. Also Winstone one of those fighters overlooked because not a world champ.

 

I stand corrected,thanks haha,I m gonna be lookin at his great career later

 

1. Ken Buchanan

2. Brian Mitchell
3. Barry McGuigan
4. Howard Winstone

All excellent with Buchanan being great IMO. Winstone unfortunate to have to come up against Saldivar and by the time he won the title he’d already been through the meat grinder. Buchanan could have reigned for years but for Duran. Those are probably the top two talents of the four if we are basing purely on skill which Kenny still comes out on top.

 

Just scene this fight on another thread and after watching your link I`d have to say Winstone actually looked better than Buchanan who was easier to catch after he punched,kept standing there waiting for the bill after punching.

Winstone was very unfortunate to have to face Saldivar for the title back then.

 

That's how I have it
