-of recents boxer B-Hop, Taylor and both of the Klitschkos would be well named
....Is the correct answer IMO. This was who i was going to say, there was a reason he weighed 180 odd and its becuase he was so trim. He could have easily have been slighty out of shape and caught up weight with his opponents but for stamina reasons he trained the hardest of all the heavie champs.Quote:

If anybody's interested on what Marciano's own thoughts on what it takes to be number 1, check this link out. http://www.bobdelmonteque.com/pages/rocky.htm It's a rare artical.
Anyways I agree with most of the names mentioned, but I'm surprised that nobody has mentioned Julio Cesar Chavez, that guy was a very dedicated athlete as much so as guys like Marvelous Marvin, and Bernard Hopkins. You gotta agree with me on that, he trained his ass off and left nothing on the table.
Lol...Toney
Hatton
Duran
:lickish:
Lol Would definately go with Bhop.. A great success story and amazing that he could still make 160 at the age of 40 and above.. Still he looks great as a strong lightheavyweight!
Obviously mayweather.. Word on the street is he just cant help running..
Cant remember where i saw it but people were bieng interviewed n saying..Ye we'd be chillin in the club and he'd be in timberlands n jeans and he'd just up and run LOL!
His therapist tells me that Pretty boy hears police sirens in his head. It isn't dedication that's giving him that get-up-and-go. ;)Quote:

You've heard that from "Soul of a Champion"
Remember Floyd used to be a real club addict, maybe it's his excuse to stay away from those girls that has his number. ;)
Seeing one of his ex-girls are pregnant Floyd ducks behind a counter, "He guys, I gotta go train!"
And they're thinking that's one dedicated son of a bitch. ;D
Lol...Wouldnt suprise me nowadays..Quote:

But over the last year ive learnt how arrogant he is..
And yes i have seen his criminal record :-X :o
Just like daddy and uncy mayweather.. Hes got all sorts.. Think theres some stuff like public disturbances and assault on a female... From what i remember..
At least i believe it was junior.. might have been floyd senior..Lol
You forgot Buster "Man-boobs" Douglas,and Riddick "Looney Tunes" Bowe ;DQuote:

Uuummm!! story goes he was :fking: Salma Hayek back in the days she was seeing with him at his house when he used to stay out in Los Angeles before..... So I was told. ;)
How about Salvador Sanchez, RJJ, Dariusz Michalczewski (though I don't a whole lot of him outside the ring inside he was always in shape and ready to go)
Today I would say; Cotto, the Marquez Bros., Margarito, PBF (tough if you take into consideration eating chips while working out then that does not show discipline), Kess, Joe C., SSM, Tszyu, Carlos Hernandez.
The Mayweather Clan's Criminal Record these days:
-Stealing Delahoya's training bag
-Urinating in public
-Punching their respected elders
-Meter violation for parking overinflated ego
-Biggest mouth... Priceless ;D
You looking forward to that 24/7 special?
I'd like to see how they train but other than that after seeing Floyd's antics and lip, I'm thinking this is going to be another dramatised reality show. Hell, they might as well bring Ishe Smith, and because we're already tired of Mayweather's lip they outta bring out Dave Chapelle, at least that'd be funny.
Anyways getting back on topic I think another fighter worth mentioning is Archie Moore back in the day. Before his comeback he was one of the most disciplined fighter right next to Marciano at the time.

Um Ali was very undisciplined. He didn't take alot of his opponents seriously like Chuvalo, Frazier III, and he suffered for it. Early in his career he almost lost a few fights like against Doug Jones because he undertrained.Quote:
