Fighters who could pull off multiple styles

Barrera never really integrated his boxing and brawling well imo.

He still fits though, just not among the effortless elite.

 

Any thoughts on a peak Holyfield or a Liston, both of whom were competent at range and up close, for my money?

 

Ali, Robinson, Ray Leonard, Hearns, Hagler, and Duran come to mind

 

Sure, I think Holyfield was more well rounded though. He had the hand speed, footwork, athletic ability, and overall skill to do it all. Holyfield didn't have a jab on the level with Ali, Holmes, Foreman, Bowe, Lewis, Liston, and some others but it wasn't bad.

 

Listons a good shout and what i thought of for heavies.....i was watching the Terrell sparring footage on youtube the other day and he shows a lot of skills there, even looks Toneyish at times.

 

Duran, Jofre, Sanchez, Hagler.

Sonny Liston.
