    Kuniaki Shibata fits all the criteria here. Kept his super sharp head and foot movement, alongside explosive punching, even into the 15th round, as evidenced by the Vilaflor, Echegaray and Arredondo bouts. Extremely hard to box with once in a groove.

    Ernesto Marcel also, for the same reasons.
