    The classic, boxer puncher swarmer triangles are always the best. Like this one with Young Stribling (the boxer), Paul Berlenbach (the puncher), and Johnny Risko (the swarmer)

    Johnny Risko is beaten by Young Stribling
    Paul Berlenbach is beaten by Johnny Risko
    Young Stribling is battered by Paul Berlenbach

    Barkley - Hearns - Duran

    Also some people like Steward say that Frazier is a bigger stylistic nightmare for Ali due to Frazier being stronger mentally than Norton.

    Maybe sub in Shavers for Foreman

    Ali > Shavers > Norton

    Not perfect but perhaps also:-

    Jeffries > Fitz > Sharkey

    Jeffries had 2 x extremely tough fights vs The Sailor but couldn’t put him out over a total of 45 rounds.

    Fitz fought Sharkey twice also and cleaned his clock in each fight in less than a total of 10 rounds.

    No offence but these simply aren’t good examples at all.
