    It's hard to give props to Mayweather jr isn't it. But your right,
    his ring IQ was off the charts,,,,,,,,,, compared to whom he fought.
    Kidding , in that area he was truly special.

    Hamed???

    No, Hamed fought off of instinct. His ring IQ was very limited.

    I think Qawi should be added to this list, ESPECIALLY considering he was a late comer to boxing. For him to acquire the amount of skill he did in such little time and be able to apply it so effectively took a very high level of ring IQ.

    Eddie MM, like Toney, had an extremely high ring IQ, just both lazy.
