    He's definitely up there.

    Always stayed in position. GREAT punching technique.

    I thnk this is the first time we agreed. Currys posture and stance were just perfect. Its a defensive attacking stance..He was a cobra

    I disagree. That title should go to Finito.

    There is no such thing as the best text book fighter ever. There are too many styles that have succeeded in this sport for Roach to even utter such lunacy.
