    I was thinkin about this today


    All i really know, from what i have seen, Roy Jones Junior would be number 1




    Others i would seek to include would be sugar ray robinson and Ali, but undoubtedly there are many, many more fighters in history which could make such a list


    So lets have it, who are your top 5 fighters in history with the most athleticism

    Mundine was an extremely athletically gifted rugby player.
    As much as he is a ****stick, he is also undoubtedly a great athlete.

    Apparently Joe Bugner could run 100m in 11.5 seconds or something, that aint bad. He was also national junior discus champion.
