    Who would that be?

    I thought Tyson's defense in his prime and even when past it was quite good. To fight that aggressively and avoid so many punches was pretty impressive.

    I'd put Brook in there, Thurman, and Beterbiev.

    Roman is pretty incredible. Lomachenko isn't too far behind.

    Roman isn't on the same level as Lomachenko. Lomachenko is phenomenal.

    I have to see more of Roman to determine where he stands.

    Shannon Briggs. Although his "my defense is my face" style isn't often well appreciated by the judges.

    Runner-up: Charlie Zelenoff. He just leaves the venue, you can't avoid a punch better than that.

    Shouldn't be hard to see more of Roman than Loma... He has almost 9 times as many pro fights.

    Honestly, there aren't that many fighters that fit this characteristic.

    And why should they?

    You have guys like Mayweather that can have a touch and go, amateur like style, and get outworked by the guy that has to take the risks, and still get a decision.

    Why should anyone take any risks?

    You can just act like a piece of ****, make everyone hate you, and then fight like a coward, and you can get plenty of money.
