Pre Heavyweight Jones was unbeatable imo, aside from the disqualification loss to Griffin that took his unbeaten record which was harsh. Perfect as a performance can be from jones that nightCracking account of himself,was a shut out indeed. The "uncivil war" they called it didn't they lost a decision to griffin both times didn't he? Was ahead on most cards but just got out worked in the first fight, Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Anyway theres nothing technical about basic tap and run its how you score points in the amateurs and at nearly 7 foot tall its hard to beat....fortunately in the pros you,ve got to make a dent ....the judging in the pros isnt about touching your opponent with a scoring shot its about impacting your opponent 1 solid left hook to the body can score higher with judges than 10 ineffective scoring jabs its what sets apart pro and amateur boxing. Besides which for pure technical ability id put Mike Tyson close to the top literally every punch he threw was textbook perfect and technically correct his short narrow hooks then the way he shifted weight to throw the uppercut was technically beautiful he mastered complex manouvers into a very fluid technique the way he implemented angles and moved forward perfectly balanced with speed to sit on his punches was pure boxing technique.....Holyfield at his best had every punch in the book....Riddick Bowe for a brief time had as good fundamental skills as anybody.....James Toney at 5 ft 9 and up from middleweight on cheeseburgers alone had tremendous skills,he had no right fighting at heavyweight he should of been killed but was so technically devastating he could hang with them,can you imagine a 5 ft 9 Fury having to share a ring with Toney it would be a complete mismatch. If only he was joking @maxhardcore tell him what you told the rest of us Quote Link to post Share on other sites

And just for example, would you say lennox lewis beat mike tyson, regardless of the result? Every day of the week and twice on Sundays.....Lewis had too much of everything for Tyson.

He was a far better fighter to watch though. Them big monsters around now should be given a different division. Big rangey men with huge reach that can't be got at that are boring as hell but are hard to get at. Not pretty to look at but hard to hit. Mass beats ability when your 6 foot 9 inch and 20 stone. Furey is able to move for a big man and an awkward fight for anyone. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I remember the benn - piper fight and that was the same with pipers long arms .. benn just kept getting inside and working his body until pipers arms fell enough for benn to finish it ..... 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

He keeps doing it because he accepts fury isn't the best puncher but believes him to be the most technical since Ali. The best Boxer for feet and head movement Quote Link to post Share on other sites
