Who is your pick for the most professional fighter?

He had beef with Leonard and Hearns and is rumored to have done coke while training (as a PED).

 

Ha! A man so professional that even his rumored drug habit is just to improve his training performance. If he hadn't already qualified for "most professional boxer" before, this would clinch it.

No doubt he read Playboy solely for its boxing articles as well.

 

The great Alexis Arguello never spoke ill of anyone, even Aaron Pryor who he knew cheated against him.
In fact, Arguello became close friends with Pryor.
Arguello was always known for being the consumate gentlemen.

 

Maybe there’s things I don’t know but Mickey Ward seems to fit this.

Always brought his lunch pail and hard had. Overmatched or not he gave his best. And never that I saw stopped trying to win even when it looked like he had no chance.

 

I have hundreds of him on my old phone but they're all gone now

 

There was absolutely loads on there but I couldn't find them. I just downloaded a sort of cache.

 

Of course precluding his life outside the ring otherwise, It seems Carlos Monzon maybe the one ideal answer yet again to another thread question.

 

Joe Louis fits the bill here, so does Wladimir Klitschko.
