Lawrence Clay Bey

 

Jack Johnson
Gene Tunney

 

Kevin King Pin Johnson must be one of the defensive/boring ATGs since he survived Titali's monstrous onslaught without looking like he was in trouble.

 

Art Swiden. He pissed off fans and fighters alike. Even in sparring he was reviled, Rocky Marciano and Billy Conn both giving him strong words after sparring sessions.

 

Can you give us the story?

 

Bruce Seldon had a pretty good defence, he went the whole fight with Tyson without Tyson even laying a glove on him.

 

..and they call Jimmy Young "negative"..

 

Which reminds me of the great John Ruiz... :hey

 

25 posts and no ones mentioned the best defence in HW history yet, Mike Tyson

 

:rofl:rofl

And his glass-mandible was so frigging fragile, poor Bruce was dropped TWICE by gusts of wind from Tyson;s gloves!!

 

explain this - :hi:

Foreman HooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooK!:smoke

 

Jacques Sharkey
Dominick Guinn
James Braddock (right ?)
Michael Spinks (very defensive as a heavy)
Jimmy Ellis (at least vs Ali&Frazier*2 he was)
Zora Folley

 

Young aint got nothing on Brucey.

Wasnt it Willie Pep who won around without throwing a punch?

Well Mike Tyson won the WBA title without landing one.

 

Zora Folly and Eddie Machen spring to mind
Henry Clark was another slick guy on his night
(Larry Donald and Joe Bugner i suppose)
Greg Peralta
James Tillis
Larry Middleton
