Who Is The Best Pure Athlete In Boxing?

So, presumably, you feel you've "won" by proffering nothing bar empty rhetoric, right?

 

read again, maybe it will register. I wasnt planning on winning anything but you implied something was there to be won...so ill take the W

 

wladamir klitschko

 

You do that mate. Glad I've helped make your day.

 

Guillermo Rigondeaux

 

The list of fighters you mentioned wasn't even close when you talk of pure athleticism amongst unretired fighters. What about these guys? In terms of pure athleticism these guys rank higher than anybody on that list.....Amir Khan also deserves some consideration.

• Roy Jones Junior
• Gamboa
• Jab Judah

 

Pacquiao and Gamboa stand out, for pure speed, explosiveness. Pacquiao because he's a proven 12 round fighter also.

 

Pacman, PBF, Gamboa for me. Quick twitch muscles, great reflexes, quick feet. All the traits of being naturally gifted athletes.

 

What do you mean exactly, its a very vague term....

I presume you mean who is the most physically talented all round guy? Stamina, speed, strength etc.....?

 

Not sure of the criteria: BUT

I would pick Pac-Man because he has moved up through the weights and his skills have developed with him along with the power to match his bigger oponents. He possesed the physical ability to evolve into a more complete athlete.

I think of Hatton moving to welterweight and then having to move back down. He couldn't match the skills of his bigger oponents when his physical size was overmatched, meaning he didnt possess the athletic ability to grow in skillset.

Hopkins evolving his style to limit his output but increase his acuracy shows great athletic intelligence and ability. Considering he is still P4P at 44 is testament to a pure athletic specimen.

 

Roy Jones JRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR
