    Mike McCallum, by a country mile. Even if he was hurt, the other guy never knew it.

    I think Wilfred Benitez was a bit cooler.

    How about a shout for Laporte? The trouble with picking him though is he refused to let his hands go. So he was relaxed alright, but hardly any sort of offensive juggernaut in there, so maybe he's only relaxed playing defense. Not so relaxed playing the lead.

    He very well may have, especially when his great reflexes started to wane. Against Davey Moore for instance,...the version of El Radar who whipped Duran would have outclassed Davey...badly.
