    On film he is one of the most impressive fighters ever, you agree?

    I don't care about that old cliche, sarcasm is far more relevant than you and your face boy. And it was N i g g a :p ...Yeah, you heard.

    In all seriousness, I think 70-80 is fine for a guy who had the ability of Chang, and he probably has the best resume among the Light Fly greats.

    :lol::lol:

    I think 70-80 is about right myself anyway, I'm just saying on film he is one of the most impressive fighters ever.

    Barrera is about 65 on my list. Gonna do 55-100 this weekend.

    Chang is probably the most impressive fighter on film I've ever seen. Possibly, though Joe Louis pushes him hard for that accolade.

    It'd make a good discussion, I can't think of the fighter who has most impressed me on film. Most of the ones I'd mention wouldn't make a top 50. :huh

    Ray Robinson, Roberto Duran and Pernell Whittaker impress me the most on film.

    One guy who's like that for me is Ernesto Marcel.

    Combinations...Julio Cesar Chavez

    Handspeed...Hector Camacho Sr

    Power...Julian Jackson

    Stamina...Myung Woo Yuh

    Punch resistance...Some guy called Willie Taylor who took 5-6 rounds of absolute brutal punishment from Michael Spinks without going down...probably lol

    Taking the easy choice kiddo:yep:lol:

    Nah, Sugar Ray is RIGHT up there for me as well.

    As a matter of fact I'm gonna' say sorry Chang, but Joe Louis is my man.

    But then again, maybe if we could make a 'styles' bracket we could pick a fighter who impressed us the most for each particular style.

    Who's gonna' start it on the Classic, cause I can't be bothered but it would no doubt be interesting:good

    But Chang impresses me on all levels, so does Duran, Pea and Robbie. Yeh Jacksons power is impressive but overrall he aint as impressive as say Arguello

    Let Addie start it it was his idea.

    Also Harada really impresses me.

    :lol::lol:

    As aforementioned Harada really impresses me, also and of course Chang.

    Harada=**** hot :good

    Jacksons power for me is arguably the strangest I've ever seen. How many fighters have you seen with numerous opponents that stopped still and then went down like a tree hit by lightning?!?!?!

    But I'd agree, in terms of all-round punching form AND power I'd say Louis, closely followed by Arguello (coincedentally a big Joe Louis fan)

    That's why the people who say 'old timers are ****' do my head in; Arguably the best puncher ever was active in the 30's :lol:

    Jackson's power certainly impresses more than Arguello's, despite them both being lights out punchers at their prime weights.
