Top five most physically gifted fighters

:good speed and power for the most part of it, much more so than his technical ability anyway, which wasn't of a great standard.

 

Well Floyd should be out then, Cuchulain.

 

does Joan Guzman deserve a shout at all?

 

I figure it'd be the ability to learn something without difficulty. Those who can be shown the way and pick it up without issue or hesitation. Simply being naturally suited to and easily acquainted to something from the time you were able to partake in it.

In that sense I don't necessarily lump "naturally talented" and "physically gifted" together.

Zab falls into the latter category, not the former, at least not in comparison to so many others.

 

Nah, reflexes are nice but he's a slick boxer grounded on boxing rather than anything supreme on the physical chart imo

 

I agree with this logic, i don't see the two phrases as being one and the same, far from it.

Think of what James Toney achieved . Then take the steroids but add better habits and training . Adjust the technique to the time's rules and remember that fighting often was more of the norm then , although Langford had even a big volume of fights for his time , but then again , Toney had too for his time.

 

No, just those who take to something easily and "naturally", i.e. the "naturals". Is my point not getting across or are you just being deliberately argumentative by pointing out a single sentence which may've been misconstrued?

Let's hear your take on the subject, then. I'm assuming you believe it to go hand in hand with "physically gifted". I think that's total nonsense if so.

 

Roy, and Ali top the list. I don't know who I'd put after.

 

****, I was just wondering that myself...


1. Prime Foreman
2. George Foreman with a monocle
3. George Foreman with a cape
4. George Foreman after several hours of playing RISK with Jeff Speakman
5. Old Foreman
