Who were the slickest most cagey untouchable boxers of all time?

Locche
Benitez
Ali ( first phase )
Johnny Nelson ( Arghh )

 

If you were an up and coming Welter in the 80s and 90s, you avoided Manning Galloway like the plague. As even if you won, you are probably going to look terrible doing so.


The Spoiler very much lived up to his nickname. A herky jerky style that was not easy to watch, and even harder to fight.


I remember Pat Barrett, a ferocious one punch knock out artist at 140/147, getting his alphabet title shot, seemingly in his prime, against Galloway, and just being bemused for twelve rounds, not looking like he could land anything against The Spoiler, let alone win.

 

George Benton. Good fighters could throw everything in the book and never land a blasted punch. Ezzard Charles, Jimmy Young, and Carlos Monzon would be runner-up's.

 

Michael Nunn and Herol Graham when they chose to box and move. For a few rounds at least.

The Sumbu Kalambay who faced McCallum.

 

The two Joeys - Maxim and Giardello.

 

@red cobra's favourite.

Already see some good names in here. Very surprised no mention yet of this two but Ill add Pernell Whitaker and Willie Pep (best two defensive boxers ever)

Others would be: Roberto Duran, Miguel Canto, Marlon Starling, Jose Napoles, Miguel Lora, Lionel Rose, Victor Galindez and the Wilfredo Gomez pre-Salvador Sanchez fight are the ones that i like to watch the most

 

Miguel Canto was one of them

 

Add in Eddie Perkins and Ralph Dupas.

 

Hope he's ok and just on a long break ..

 

Benitez

Yeah, he's been gone for a while. I always like him talking about stylists.

 

Herol Graham, Naseen Hamed, RJJ
