Re: Who comes close to being a "perfect fighter?"
Y'all may think I am crazy, but Aaron Pryor.
He could find angles; he could box circles around good boxers. Maybe too much of an iron chin to be a perfect fighter. He was determined, squared up a lot because he always felt he was stronger than his opponents, but knew how to impose his will in the ring. Only thing I would take away from him is I wouldn't say he avoided a lot of unnecessary punishment.
... Which bring me back to an early point in this thread... Ali was definitely not a perfect fighter. Look at him now. He took way too much punishment in the ring.
Too many people ducked Pryor and of course the drugs later in life...
