    Fighters who either: (a) frequently committed various fouls; or (b) most clearly benefited from committing fouls in particular fights. :think

    First few that come to mind are:

    Tito (low blows)
    Wilfredo Gomez (low blows)
    Froch (rabbit punches)

    Fritzie Zivic wrote an impassioned defence of fouling, entitled “you got to fight dirty”. He argued that all of the great fighters of history have also been great foulers, and that a discretely executed foul was a thing of beuty!

    Jeff Fenech was just plain rough. Mauling, pushing, throwing guys around in the clinch.
