toughest fighter ever.....

troy dorsey although no were near great was one tough fighter

 

Holyfield!

 

Two modern fighters that were pretty tough were Julio Cesar Chavez and Juan Laporte. Laporte was never dropped, only stopped once and that was by not coming out for the 11th round adainst Padilla in his last fight. And Chavez could walk through hard punchers in his prime. Another very tough one was Rafael "Bazooka" Limon.

 

Fritzie Zivic,,,,,,,,,and a dirty ******* too.

 

Hey, Burt. I'm sorry, I just notcied that you responded to me. It is nice to hear from you. I have been a bit innactive lately. I have been busy with work and being a father. You may not read this, but if you do, I hope all is well with you, friend. I will have to find one of your more recent posts and try to contact you there. Take care, B.B. :good

 

It's funny you mention this, i was actually thinking about it earlier today.
Smokin Joe claims that he was blind in one eye for most of his career, which i find incredible esp considering the style of fighter he was. Jackie Fields and Fidel LaBarba also briefly continued their careers after losing the use of one eye. LaBarba's retina was actually gradually tearing throughout the third bout with Kid Chocolate, despite this he apparently gave Chocolate a pretty good working over.

Tommy Loughran said that he fought years with a broken right hand.

I seem to recall a boxer having a condition where he was impervious to feeling pain, cant remember who though, Battling Nelson maybe... not sure

 

thats not a bad list:good

 

great picks! barkley and holyfeild where my picks too! (paz great mention as well)

gatti and saad also great picks.

 

benny lynch was a tough little *******

 

:good

He was knocked out only once in 238 contests (stopped twice on cuts).

His name is actually just Angel Garcia. Robinson was a nickname derived from a resemblance to SRR.

He was only the 2nd boxer to ever last 10 full rounds with the beastly young undefeated version of Roberto Duran that went 31-0 with 27 knockouts (and the first man to do so at lightweight).

 

Im also gonna give a shout out for Jeff Harding, damn guy was nearly all heart

As for anywhere/anytime... Eder Jofre, cant think of anyone who beat more guys on their own soil

 

saad muhammad was too tough for his own good.along the same lines as the late freddie
mills

 

I would like Jake gets to 100, that would be tough.
