Who is the most well-rounded fighter in boxing? Considering, in fighting, outside fighting, defense, footwork, punching power, speed, ring generalship, and everything you need, who molds the best of everything TODAY?
Picked Floyd Mayweather, Andre Ward and Juan Manuel Marquez are right up there though when it comes to being well rounded.
I would say Ward.. he currently does everything well outside of knocking people completely out... even though he KO'd Dawson... Rigo to me is the true most rounded fighter.. it looks like he possesses almost every skill, even some in-fighting, but his resume isn't the best so I went with Ward SN: Did I leave Martinez and Donaire off?...:huh should they be considered as well rounded?
Vitali can fight at a distance and run (the Emmanuel Steward style), he can Knock people flat out, he can control the ring, and his defense ain't bad... I think after these four other guys.. he would be number 5 or 6 as most well rounded.. you don't think so?
I was referring to his brother Wlad's style.. who doesn't seem to engage or punch as hard as Vitali.. Vitali can do both styles really
The biggest problem with both brothers is that they can't fight on the inside which is no surprise given der length but still and Vitali is very awkward it works but it's far from textbook. He can slug because of his chin and of course fight on the outside but even prime Vitali had never the movement of someone like his brother and Byrd wasn't winning but Vitali wasn't really comfortable. I'M not saying that Vitali's one dimensional or something but I wouldn't compare him to someone like Ward or Mayweather
the first person I thought of was Sugar Ray Robinson then I tried not to understand your question because I didn't like it still don't. So the answer is Sugar Ray Robinson then I thought hey give the guy a break there must be someone else today right active Sugar Ray Leonard
Floyd, no question. Marquez is on the list (and rightly so) and Floyd made him look like an amateur after coming off an 18 month lay off. Marquez stepped up, but still...
Marquez, Ward, and Floyd for me. Cotto is actually pretty versatile as well. Though there's a difference between "well rounded" and "complete."
Sorry.. but Pac is really well rounded--- super talented.. but not well rounded--- he doesn't have great defense, doesn't really slow down to fight on the inside as much as the others here can, doesn't really show ring IQ.. he as well as Martinez aren't the definition of most well rounded
