    Ok I'll start right off the top of my head Duran ..I mean a guy who gets knocked the f out by Hearns than goes the distance with a monster MW in Hagler later moves up to beat up the much bigger Barkley,this is after Barkley destroyed Hearns ..If that ain't tough I don't know what is ??


    Who else ??

    1 clear one

    Fighting Maidana on the inside despite not needing to, could have easily used his feet and moved out like he did in 2.

    But he decided to fight.

    Of course you will give him no credit no matter what people try to tell you. What's the point of asking? :roll:

    In fighting a very tough brawler when he doesn't have to. Maidana is tough as nails @ 47.

    Without a doubt the toughest fighter I ever saw was my old buddy Randall Tex Cobb. Went 15 rounds with Larry Holmes beating on him. After the fight Larry went to hospital for Xrays on his hands Tex went to a bar for a few beers

    Barkley himself is up there. Eubank, LaMotta. Steve Collins.

    Duran was tough but never took punishment really due to his head movement on his way inside.

    Tom Cribb was stupid tough, apparently. Marciano, Hagler. You can tell some guys are just tough.

    Floyd is very tough but he is so skilled and elusive I would not rate him as the toughest :bbb
