    I hope you aren't being serious about Frazier being crude. I really hope that's a joke.

    Bowe. His knockouts (Rodriguez and Gomez, Dokes, Thomas for just several examples) sometimes looked more like assault and batteries.

    He could be a bit more adroit (he had all the tools and great trainer to box really well the rare times he chose to). But when he failed or just got too frustrated he started crude pounding (Hide).

    Already, now this thread is going to sh!t, cause apparently Joe Frazier and Riddick Bowe were "crude."

    Classic is falling off...

    I liked those kind of looping body shots he threw — cranked them back like an underhand softball pitch.

    Juan Roldan was about as crude as a Somali pirate on a three-day bender.

    Most recently it’s been Srisaket Sor Rungvisai and Jarrett Hurd.

    Someone has already mentioned him but Ricardo Mayorga - a poster boy for crudity both inside and outside the ring.

    Dave “Boy” Green.
    It’s just a pity at the top level he didn’t have the chin to go with it.

    Would you say Rungvisai is crude? I think he has very underrated ring craft, and has throws some nasty short shots.

    Marvin Johnson wasn't crude. He was an elite amateur. He just got a little wild when he has someone hurt, or when he really wanted to hurt them.
