Who was the most complete fighter ever

SRR. he could stick and move, fight inside, power in both hands, great footwork, physically strong, killer instinct, heart, ability to go 15 rounds with snap and focus, didn't get cut all the time, speed, and unfortunately i am afraid to say it being a man and all, but was handsome.

 

Julio Cesar Chavez

 

Im old school and believe Jack dempsey was truly the best ever.

 

Mayweather at 130

Great defense
great chin
knockout power
fast as hell
perfect form:bbb

 

after reading all these pages i was shaking my head,at many of the picks.Sweat pea??Come on great fighter but not much power,same with pep.Along with Sugar ray robinson it is RIcardo Lopez he was undefeated(1td)and the most perfect textbook tight defense,power,great boxer,chin and its not like he retired that long ago,shame on boxing fans who dont appreciate this little warrior:nono

 

damn you!!! and i forgot lopez!! the man is one of the greatest fighters of the last twenty years, the definition of complete. GREAT call on that one.

 

Koki Kameda.

In seriousness, probably Sugar Ray Leonard in my opinion.

Quick hands, fast combinations, good defensive movement, very good chin and he could bang when he really needed to.

 

salvador sanchez

 

good pick:good

 

i dont think people on here understand what complete fighter means.

 

pbf

 

I have read some dumb-arse posts on this thread.

Duran - Great going forward but not much of a defensive fighter.
Whitaker - Great defensive counter-puncher but wheres the power?
Chavez - No speed
Dempsey - atsch I dont think that one needs explaining.
PBF - Could be complete but needs to show more attacking impotus.

Those are only some of the ones I bothered to read.

The obvious answers are Leonard, Robinson and perhaps Ali.

 

duran belongs at the top of the list. a defensive genius

ali does not: couldn't in-fight or body punch worth a ****

complete fighting means skills and aptitude in all areas of the game, a mastery of technique, ring intelligence and the skills needed to utilize them to the greatest effect

 

Both duly noted. :good

 

Excuseme :huh"essex boy" Duran not much defense man if you have really seen him fight you got to pay more attention,duran was the best at rolling with shots and had legendary head movement,this guy could control a speed bag with his head better than most with their hands.Seriously ive seen plenty of clips.You were right about dempsey not a complete fighter great slugger and fast but far from complete,neither was ali greatest heavyweight ever but no way complete.
