    antonio margarito(e)

    he made his style with face parries as a central technique

    one of the rare few who seem to genuinely enjoy taking punishment

    Khan has amazing attributes that he sometimes just throws by the wayside to prove his "chin" and **** knows what else. If he adapts his style a bit more to fight off the back foot and sets up his shots more with the jab (as well as keeping the fight in the middle of the ring off those ****ing ropes), I'd only really favour Floyd and Pac to beat him convincingly.

    I named these three because they relied on brawling when it clearly seemed they could have become better boxers and more complete fighters.... but instead they still chose to brawl
