    Larry Donald strove to be like Ali.

    Floated like a butterfly (somewhat), failed to sting like a bee.

    OOF, Larry Donald was good at it but just lack offense. Do you know any lighter weight classes that used Ali's style?

    Tommy Hearns could box that way when he felt he needed to, like after Leonard rocked him in the first fight. He was versatile.

    I mean, that does make sense. Tommy is pretty long so use that reach!

    OOF, my bad dude jeez. I look it up and Angelo Dundee trained a lot of people actually. But anyways, Ossie Ocasio is a good mention!

    El tigre colonense Ismael Laguna... not as smooth as Ray but one hell of a dancer with a frenetic rhythm:
