Who Is The Best Pure Athlete In Boxing?

Cintron is also a good wrestler too, so that shows a vareity of skills.

Somebody like Mayweather is a natural athlete, Pac has developed into a great athlete too.

I would say Mayweather.

 

Jones Jr in terms of athletic ability is on another level though, :yep.

 

Who ever said Manny Pacman is the purest athelete on that list needs shooting. Mayweather is 5 times a purer athelete than pac has ever been at anytime in his career, this is a fact.

 

Happy to finally see Jones name. I thought i was the only one.

Ok...Jones and Judah are no more Athlete because they are not at their peak anymore? BRAVO!

 

Im still laughing at how some of you can compare a prime roy jones jr, floyd mayweather with the likes of Manny Pacqauio. Pacman is no where near the athelete as these two men.

 

explain what you think floyd has got and manny lacks. your opinion by itself is of little value.

 

Anthony Mundine wins this hands down and he's not even on the list. The man was a proffesional rugby league star and went on to become world champ.

I dont even like mundine but you have to give the guy credit. For those who dont know much about Rugby its the equivelent of an NFL star turning over and doing the same.

 

Wow No Wladamir Klitschko on that list? I'm suprised he hasn't been mentioned. As far as athletes go he's easily in the top 3.

 

I personally think Ali or Roy Jones are better athletes than anyone on this list, of course with Ali one would have to assume the question is rated to all time athletes, as opposed to those currently active.

 

That is damn right. Talk about Athletic, Wlad is like a Greek God.:deal

 

Really? a 6'6 monster with awesome reflexes and power isn't one of the top 3 athletes in boxing?

Wlad is an athlete above all else, it's the reason he was so hyped before getting starched, it was the source of all his promise.

Skills and toughness he is certainly lacking, but to deny him to be a freak of an athlete is pretty inaccurate.


I'd go as far as to say he's one of the top 10 athletes ever to compete at heavyweight, his tools(minus chin) are just ****ing impressive.
