    Checkout Sanders lightning handspeed, super southpaw left hand, and amazing super duper angles only a super southpaw could take.

    I dont think ODLH mosley is a good example, mosley is a wild, yet fast brawler. dlh has good skills but he didnt show any of his exellent footwork like in the tito fight.
    ODLH PBF IMO was and old man swinging for the fences till he got tired, and an extremely skilled fighter underperforming.

    Barrera Morales??? Come on, they are 2 highly skilled boxers but they hated each other 2 much to fall back on skill in that fight and not be all "macho". too much of a brawl IMO.
    McCallum Toney is a good shout, as is Leonard Benitez, Nunn Toney.

    I know it was a mismatch, I meant Patterson ring form and technic, not his competiveness

    I don't think it is that good, both guys had much better showings.

    Leonard-Benitez
    Leonard-Duran I
    Whitaker-Mcgirt I
    Benitez-Hearns
    Morales-Barrera (all 3 fights)

    Those came to mind right away.

    I think Holmes v. Witherspoon was pretty good for a heavyweight fight.
