    Ha, well first I should say anybody is probably smarter than me in the ring as I've never boxed but there are a couple guys that, I hate to say it, are less intelligent than others.

    1). Jermain Taylor-Burns himself out fairly quickly with his offensive flurries early in the fight and fades badly down the stretch.

    2). Zab Judah- Tends to load up for one punch(because of stamina issues?) instead of throwing combos like his dad begs him to. Also, for such a great athlete he can never seem to slip a punch against a really good fighter.

    3). Chris Henry- The guy has no idea how to get out of the way of a punch.

    Those are a quick 3 that come to mind for me.

    I'm going to be honest: Paul Williams is my favorite fighter hands down, but he could be SO much better if he fought to his physical advantages. He's a physical freak of nature with ludicrous reach and stamina, but he chooses to stand in and trade rather than work from the outside.

    To be fair, he wouldn't be as exciting if he fought smarter and maybe he wouldn't be my favorite fighter then. Ah well.

    :good I think If Paul Williams used his size to his advantage he would be as close to unbeatable at 147 and posibily 154 as anyone can get.
