    Mate that's too broad a request, literally hundreds of fighters meet have those abilities.

    Alberto Davila, the smoothest boxing 5'1" guy without a big punch you'll find.

    Jose Napoles sprung to mind; fluid, majestic even.

    Could do things a video game character couldn't.

    Genaro Hernandez. I loved watching his boxing and economy. He is the opposite of Khan, who has no economy and leaves his chin exposed.

    YOU GOT IT. Tippy Larkin was so great a lightweight boxer that he beat a master boxer Willie Joyce several times, virtually SHUT OUT the ultimate boxer Billy Graham, beat about every top boxer he fought in the rich laden
    1940s in over 140 bouts. His sole losses was to bangers like Bummy Davis, Ike Williams, Lew Jenkins only. NEVER outboxed,but alas had a porcelain chin, but as beautiful a boxer ever in the modern lightweight division...
