    I'm prepared to say that Guillermo Rigondeaux is most skilled boxer the world has ever known.

    An obscure choice but Yuki Nonaka is a very nice pure boxer. Sadly his lack of other traits means he'll never make a mark outside of the Japanese scene.

    For starters...

    Harold Johnson
    Willie Pep
    Nicolino Locche
    Pernell Whitaker
    Miguel Canto
    Sumbu Kalambay


    I do agree that FMJ and Rigondeaux are the best pure boxers right now. I'd probably add Ward as well.

    You don't think Prime Floyd's one of the best outside fighters?
