    Who are the fighters with the most physical gifts you've ever seen? I would say Roy Jones, Wilfred Benitez, and Meldrick Taylor would be among them.

    Joe Calzaghe is woefully underrated. Phenomenal sustained work rate, ability to adjust during a fight, tremendous foot and hand speed, and great power before his hands became brittle.

    Shawn Porter is a freak. Very quick hands and feet, extremely strong and I've never seen him tired despite his hellacious workrate.

    He's not a huge puncher, but he must hit somewhat hard if he was able to do that to Paulie

    the underrated tag is partly due to his association with war+en, a promoter who is notorious for getting his fighters 'a belt' and then taking the 'felix sturm path of least resistance'...

    not that calzaghe took a path of least resistance at SMW.
    but through his association with war+en, it guaranteed that no meaningful fight with jones or Hopkins was ever going to made that would give him a profile outside of Britain

    that's why calzaghe suffers and polarizes people internationally when his name comes up
