toughest middleweights ever!!!! GRAZIANOVS GREB, KETCHEL VS LAMOTTA

Greb wins. He fought half blind. He never trained just fought all the time. He is said to have fought Mickey Walker in the streets after they were finished with their historic boxing match.

 

Carlos Monzon.

 

Tony Ayala was a definite shoo-in, until......What a shame. I definitely feel he would've been up there.

 

No he would not, like Tyson, he had a flawed genius. Without the flaws he would not of had the genius; with the flaws he was always going to fail, and in Tyson's case, that is without hindsight, you could see it from 87 onwards ....

 

Ketchel, while lacking traditional boxing skills, was probably one of the toughest mother ****ers to ever fight. That's what made him great, his toughness and ferocity, not to mention punching power.

 

Harry Greb, although there are many others worthy of mention and of taking this title....Hagler for instance.

 

Don't forget Steele. He was tough.

 

Carmen Basilio.

 

When in doubt, go with Greb.

 

Hagler. The man was a tank. Never stopped. Never quit. Never knocked off his feet. He was hit right on the button by two of the biggest punchers in middleweight history and didn't go anywhere.

It's fitting that the greatest middleweight fighter ever was also the toughest son of a ***** ever.

 

Zale deserves mentioning.

 

Walker.

 

I would say either Walker or Greb.

If you asked either of them to fight a prime Mike Tyson they would probably agree to do it.

I will also mention Barbados Joe Walcott (not a midleweight). He wanted to fight Jeffries, Sharkey and Hart.

 

You suprise me!
