    Probably Tyson. My favorite is the right hook to the body/right uppercut to the chin.

    Shame that Leonard, Chavez and Mosley aren't polled, or Norris, Ike Williams or Meldrick Taylor

    Robinsons combinations were the greatest I've seen. In the modern era I'd say JMM, the combo he dropped Medina with leaves my jaw on the floor every time I see it.

    PURELY on punching form, variety, accuracy, and fluidity of throwing different punches in succession, I think Juan Manuel Marquez takes it.

    This vid says it all.

    Louis, best combination of accuracy, numbers of punches, power and speed.

    Sugar Ray, followed by JMM. Everyone else is not really in contention.
