    I would say the best gifts physically would be those hardest to train, reflexes, chin, coordination, power etc.

    that said, the top 5 most physically impressive boxers IMO are:
    Ali
    Pep
    Armstrong
    RJJ
    T Fury

    A top 5 for me are ones that have got it all inside AND outside of a ring.

    Would you expect Mayweather to run a sub 11 second 100 Meters? Lift x3 B/w? Be a fantastic jumper? No, you wouldn't.

    Guys like Tyson and Foreman were genetic freaks of nature.

    seen loads of good fighters over the years let down by there chin or there lack of desire beaten by fighters who did not have 30% of there talent

    i remember a british middle errol christie / very talented fighter / but never had the chin to make it to the top.

    I'd replace T Fury w/ either Mayweather or Pacquiao. Nice list nonetheless
