    Default Who is (or was) your favorite "stalk, stun and close" type of guy?

    Mine currently is Margo becuse he can walk through punches and still do the stalk as he gets stronger and stronger. My past favorites were Sugar Ray Leonard and K. Galaxy One they had you hurt, it was like being in the Serengeti National Park; the kill was coming.

    Hopkins in his prime,would find you no matter where you were in the ring.
    Kirkland against Vera,the best thing he did all night other then hit hard,was cut down the ring,no matter where Vera tried to run to,Kirkland was waiting for him when he got there

    Another good stalker was Holmes,he'd just follow that relentless jab of his,and you,all over the ring.
    His fights might not have been exciting but you have to admit they were efficient

    Mike Tyson. When he caught up to you there was nowhere he wouldn't hurt if he laid a glove on it.

    Well said bud & never more evident than when he broke Gerry Cooney up systematically .... Holmes was up there with the best at doing the stalk & break ya kinda thing...

    Leonard was the ultimate closer and when he did his kill, he no longer had a baby face. He was stone cold ruthless in there. He was my all-time favorite.

    I remember him taking out our own Dave Boy Green with as clinical a ko combo as Ive ever seen, after he had softened him up..

    I know he doesn't hurt you, but I love how Winky Wright would walk guys down behind that jab. He did it to Vargas, he did it to Trinidad, Hopkins, Quartey, Taylor, Mosley, etc, etc. all without being hit hardly at all.

    Arce quickly comes to mind.
    Vic is also good at it.
    Soto does an outstanding job.

    No, not in those. He just won those. One, by humiliating Duran and making him quit; the other, by coming back after years off and beating an ATG by outsmarting him with a superior fight plan for which Hagler had no backup plan..
