Who are the top 3 greatest IN-FIGHTERS?

chavez
duran
hagler
castillo
toney (less exciting but really effective)
floyd (same as above)
pea would make you miss all your punches while staying on the inside, but his lack of ammunition while there keeps him down on the list

 

Joe Frazier
Roberto Duran

I can't believe no one has "Smokin" Joe Frazier in there, probably the greatest infighter of all time a sure shot for top the 3

 

I guess that explains it.

 

what do you boys mean?

why you say Manny isnt great on the inside?

 

Mike McCallum was a very crafty infighter too.

 

I have a question for you, how many Pac fights have you seen?

 

bro, manny can't even fight on the backfoot let alone on the inside......

 

Excatly. For starters JMM and EM have routinuely gotten the better of him on the inside.

 

I'm talking about in Mannys prime, which would probably have started Morales 3, and ive seen most of them since then

No one wants to trade on the inside with Manny for a very big reason - he's devastating in there, short arms with huge speed and explosive power

Agree he cant really fight on the back foot, but again, why you think he cant fight on the inside?

 

Marquez was forced to fight in there, and everytime he did he was in huge danger. JMMs maybe the best in the game all round, but it was hell in those inside exchanges

Your selling Manny way too short

 

for starters, manny does not pressure his opponents nor does he have a jab to get on the inside...manny bounces around and waits for that laser he calls a left hand...once he tags you, sure he has that killer instinct, but that's not automatically called "in fighting"

in fighting is corrales vs castillo, staying in someones chest while being able to land beautiful body shot, uppercuts etc etc.....but you have to have a gameplan to come in...like a double jab and some dips to get right where you need to be....this is one reason why hatton is not a good in fighter...cause he lunges at you with a hook, grabs you and dirty boxes you.......a good in fighter will always set you up with a nice jab and slowly but surely work his way in....a great in fighter like the names mentioned above will get inside with anything, like a niclely timed hook, or a straight (chavez style) followed by a hook to the body....once there in there they wear you the **** down with everything in their arsenal....:good

also, a great in fighter will always cut the ring off instead of just following you around....

 

ALEXIS ARGUELO

ROBERTO DURAN

SALVADOR SANCHES WOULD have become an al time great be he was taken before his TIME . he would have TOYED with manny before putting him AWAY

BUT AL TIME GREAT GOES TO SUGAR RAY ROBINSON.:thumbsup

 

You're taking "In Fighting" to include actually getting inside in the first place

I was basically taking it to mean from when the fighters are ALREADY inside in the first place

:good
