It's hard to say to be honest. For single shots I'd rate Zab above Shane actually. Naseem Hamed also had very fast hands in his jnr...
Me too :lol:
:lol: FIFTH fastest huh?
Knockout Kings 99 Knockout Kings 2000 Knockout Kings 2001 (PS) Knockout Kings 2001 (PS2) Knockout Kings 2002 (hahahahahaha!) Fight Night 2004...
Nice topic! :bears: Lewis Exciting: Klitschko Boring: Holyfield 1
Terrible example. Calzaghe was flashy and Lacy was the boring plodder.
"Duran Lost because of the ring." - Hut*Hut
Leonard-Duran 1 Leonard Hearns 2 Jones-Toney Jones-Hopkins 1 (In retrospect) Pac-Jmm Chavez-Whitaker De La Hoya - Whitaker
easy question to answer: 1986 to pre-Jail
Honestly speaking.... I'm of the opinion that both Floyd and Pacquiao are top 5 all time in terms of raw ability. That why it's such a shame...
nice one. (Happy that some people understand what the topic is about :giggle:)
Dude.... We're only talking about the motivations of the defending heavyweight champions in this thread.
High praise indeed. Based on this post I have to assume that you have him ranked above Ray Robinson?
Stamina, workrate (those two are related), power, agression, speed, toughness. The combination of the above is past world class...it's ATG-Class!
Agree with UGTBK's frustration and the point he's making. That said... Leonard-Hearns 2 Give Ray one more round and Hearns was...
Not even close. Louis was fighting for revenge as well as an ideology. The poor dude even had the weight on his country on his shoulders....
You're talking about HEART...and that's lovely. But I'm referring to pre-fight motivation which displayed itself after in the ring.
I think you're missing the point of this thread. Fuck, I could say that Louis was motivated for all of his title defenses based upon: a) How...
Compared with Louis-Schmeling though?
:giggle: Not to go back and forth but.... 1. No point separating handspeed from combination punching. 2. No one has faster feet than...
Say what!??!! I started the thread and so I dictate the rules motherfucker!:fightme: :lol: Besides "most motivated performance" is...
Ali - Terrell
Pac has faster hands. Floyd's upper-body movement and reflexive counterpunches are faster.
Dude........ Tyson was NOT the champion in the Berbick fight!! Spinks is a good one though. Editted: Although to Whiskey's point...
Jack Johnson against Jeffries would be another
Agreed. Manny is a tough fight for Floyd regardless of the Mosley outcome.
Marquez was a "leftover"?
You really think he was that motivated for Don Cockell and Roland La Starza? Enough to compare with the aforementioned? Come on be serious...
Confusing thread title so let me explain. In which defense of the Heavyweight championship was the defending Champion at the time the most...
fair enough. This thread is really about gauging everyone's opinion. I'm not preaching any doctrines.
