Most relentless fighters of all time

Barney MFing Ross and Henry Armstrong

 

Awesome, awesome jab. @PhillyPhan69 was also a fan and was the one who put me onto him. He made Yuh work for that win. He also fought Zapata too.

For an unknown fighter (here in the west anyway) I would suggest Naoto Takahashi, who is a legend in Japanese boxing. His bout against Noree Jockygym is one of the best wars ever caught on film (I did a thread on it a few years ago). I can't think of a bout of his that wasn't a war. INSANE fighting heart.

Top British Boxing Referee - Eugene Henderson used that very word in describing Jock McAvoy, arguably the UK's greatest middleweight. Henderson stated that McAvoy was the "most unrelenting fighter he had ever handled" and with nearly 90 KO's to his credit it is a fair assessment!

 

Not in the top ten ,but certainly all pressure, Maidana.

 

Yes, and?

 

I came into watching the Yuh fight with the preconception that an SD in South Korea for the prince apparent would be a fair call for “robbery” but it actually was a hard fought bout, I neglected to score it because I was just enjoying Joey’s jab and that right uppercut he’d show sometimes, Yuh I think might’ve earned it on volume and aggression but I’d need a rewatch… actually something neat to look for, that move Futch is known to have as a signature where you roll a right with your glove up and get them with an uppercut to the midsection, Yuh does just that several times to Joey. After I’m done with Yuh I think I’ll look at Mr Olverio @PhillyPhan69 if you’d like to write a little essay on him I’d be keen to read it.

 

The thread asked for relentless fighters, that’s a relentless fighter.

 

I think Ricardo Mayorga deserves a mention….he never stopped trying to take your head off

 

Yong Soo Choi needs a mention. Very relentless pitbull and very much like his compatriots Jung Koo Chang, Myung Woo Yuh, Sung Kil Moon, In Jin Chi.
