    NAME some of your favorite crude boxers to watch and point out those who were successful.

    My pick would be Sung Kil Moon.

    Kohei Kono. Watched some of his this morning and he's tremendous fun, wide, super-aggressive, great chin.

    Ranked fighter, think he made number two for Ring, never quite came off though, ran into some tough hombres - not least Naoya Inoue, who cracked that rock.

    Bazooka Limon. Never been a huge fan but his interactions with Bobby Chacon are legendary

    I dunno, i've not seen them all but you can't miss Inoue, he did us some favour against Koki Kameda and the Rojas fight is a massive hoot,

    Is that because Kameda is normally boring or because the fight was awesome?

    I'll watch the other two for sure.

    It's because Kameda was the era's most virulently protected ****, walking away with every single close fight he was ever in, sometimes against all reason. It's a very satisfying fight.

    The 1st fighter I thought of lol. You beat me too him. I'll add D. Wilder especially when he has a opponent hurt.

    Rocky Graziano made no secrets of his intentions in the ring.

    I'd also mention Paul Fuji. Crude as Hell, but my God he could punch.
