    Hi Buddy.
    Well, I would imagine the " Sugars " have to be very high on the list, Napoles, Charles, and many more besides.
    stay safe HH.

    Sugar Ray Robinson
    Joe Louis
    Sugar Ray Leonard
    Jose Napoles
    Thomas Hearns
    Fighting Harada
    Wilfredo Gomez
    Jung Koo Chang
    Roman Gonzalez
    Ike Williams

    Probably in that order, with guys like Tyson and Charles as honorable mentions.

    Jorge Linares had some beautiful combinations, I don't see his name brought up often enough in these discussions. Young Canelo was also a fearsome combo puncher, as were Ruben Olivares and Juan Manuel Marquez. The Latinos have a history of exceptional combination punchers.

    The famously defensively minded Willie Pep known for his low-output slickster style was a good combo puncher?

    Very hard to pick 10, especially across all weight classes.
