Who's the greatest athlete to set foot in the Ring?

Froch is lucky to have gotten Dirrell WHEN AND WHERE he did. :yep

 

Awesome thread. Either Ray Leonard or RJJ.

 

Roy Jones, Tyson, Ali, Pacquiao top 4 IMO.

 

Every once in while, when he's really pressed, Dirrell will just let his hands go. I think he did it in ONE, count them ONE spot against Froch. He can throw so many punches so hard and so accurately and quickly, you think if he would just throw with abandon all the time he'd be the GOAT. He's like Cotto for me, trying way too hard to be a scientific boxer when he should be throwing them things liek there's no tomorrow.

 

Sounds about right.
