    2 bad Dinamita is retired now..cause for counterpunching to devastating effect there's been very few like him in the
    history of the game..Canelo is good but nowhere near..Marquez had a whole compliment of shots to counter with...exceptional
    at his best..its just that at times it looked like thats all he had...against a solid chinned dude with good speed and pop he was
    relatively easy to hit..always Morales would have bettered him at both their peaks..Barrera too at his peak.

    Mayweather was also a better counterpuncher .

    A boxer that's a mixture of Thomas Hearns (height, reach, jab, power, boxing ability) and James Toney (counter punching, in-fighting, defense, chin) would be pretty unbeatable.

    Just imagine if Floyd had the power of Hamed and could also switch to Hamed's unusual unorthodox fight style as and when he wanted.

    Combine 3 of Mexico's greats:
    Finito Lopez (jab, footwork, defense, boxing ability, power)
    Julio Cesar Chavez (relentless pressure, chin, toughness, in-fighting)
    Juan Manuel Marquez (counterpunching, combination, recovery, tenacity)
