    Might be a strange pick - but Holyfield. He was crafty on the inside and was able to bang with bigger stronger men..

    After that, Duran and Toney, they were so relaxed and crafty, imagine relaxing a bit mentally due to how relaxed they were in the pocket - then getting your lights put out by their power and accuracy - like many of their opponents.

    Next we go to the opposite side the spectrum, and I'm going Frazier, Lomachenko, and Hatton... I get that Hatton smay have a bit of flavor of the month due to his recent passing...but I've been revisiting him, and man he was a ****ing dog.. I'll also give Calzaghe an honorable mention here... The way he threw big combos, stayed defensively responsible and literally spun Lacy around all while staying close for portions of that fight is one of my all time favorite one-sided performances..

    Andre Ward and B-Hop are cool for study time - but they ain't fun to watch.
