    Oscar against Tito is the one I remember most. Never have I seen a megafight where one guy ran away scared like a scalled dog not looking to even score points as Oscar did in that fight. Chicken De La Hoya all over again.

    Cory Spinks for sure.

    Ottke all time, he could run because he would always get a bs decision.

    Corrie Spinks flat out runs sprints legs churning elbows flying this guy is a runner first and everything else flows off the run. Raheem is another track star
    PBF was one also. Malianaggi is on the track team.

    I'm surprised nobody's mentioned Joan Guzman or Junior Witter yet.

    Andre Dirrell Vs. Curtis Stevens - Dirrell was given the nickname Andre Gazelle by Doug Fischer I believe, which was accurate (and hilarious) if you watched the fight.

    Oh yes he can box . . . reason why he's running away from Morales even when Morales was already on the canvas. :patsch

    Jesus Bro . . . I have nothing against the guy . . . but that incident is just an eye sore and I can't forget it. :yep :D

    Guys like Floyd, Whitaker, and Raheem don't run. Raheem is boring as ****, and PBF & Sweet Pea were only entertaining if you love to watch true boxing skill (which i do), but they were boxers. They hit and not get hit, not hit and run. and at least Whitaker would stand in front of an opponent and throw when they threw. Just because the other guy missed everything doesn't mean he didn't exchange punches with them. Cory Spinks is the best example of a runner. I feel a little bad saying it since I'm from St. Louis, but no one can deny that. That and what ODLH did against Trinidad.

    . . . . and how can you people not mention Calderon?

    The last time I saw him fight . . . he is acting like the "tazmanian devil" around the ring against Cazares . . . and later on in the fight. . . as if he is hanging in a clothes line.
