    Which fighters do you think took the most punishment during their careers?

    Two current fighters come to mind:

    Hasim Rahman (huge Lewis KO, massive Maskaev KO)

    Katsidis (gets cut in every fight, win or lose)

    Cotto - his last 5 or so fights are unbelievably quality fighters. He fought the top 5 WW (bar floyd) in his last 5 fights, not to mention WW is the toughest competition division nowadays.

    From my island: Miguel Cotto and Wilfredo Gomez.
    They both fought all the best opposition available. One after the other.
