Who is the most ferocious fighter today ?

[Hulk]

From that list I voted Rios...

I think Gamboa is at the top of the list though.

I love Gamboa and he's a super talent, but he's also content to cruise to a dominant decision win rather than take his opponent out.

[Pavlik]

After Gamboa shreds Rios apart, people will recognize Gamboa as the next great thing.

Angulo should be up there as well, even though Kirkland got the better of him.

Kirkland should win this hands down me thinks.

[Spicoli]

Agree. Kirkland fights like his literal life depends on it. More so knowing what its like to be exposed, whipped and to fall from the ivory tower.

[p4pking]

I think Kirkland is a good call. The loss to Ishida seemed to only make him more desperate against Angulo when he was in spots of trouble, it seems he doesn't know how to fight without urgency and it's fun to watch. Rios and Margarito are hard as nails but don't quite have the same tenacity or raw athletecism.

[ross]

Ferocious would be someone who opponents fear to fight. I doubt very much that any top fighters fear Kirkland after seeing him get splattered by a non punvher in the first and then getting dropped and almost stopped by another non puncher that Cintron beat...

Whereas Rios can go and go and take anything dished out.

Your right.

Truth be told I wanted to put Mayorga on the list !

Ferocity is down to the individual fighters approach, by definition it has nothing to do with how they are perceived by opponents. You fail as usual.

[Beanz]

I have seen goldfish with more teeth than Rios. Ferocious? Really ? It's quite easy to be ferocious when you don't make weight and have to pay someone to allow you to come in to the ring so much heavier. Until he shares the ring with someone smart enough to make space and make him pay for his come forward style I think it's a bit early to crown him mister ferocious. If he still marches forward after getting caught clean a few times then maybe, but you could make a case for Murray being just as fierce after not stepping back whilst being so much lighter and having that much damage to your face.

[Manos de Piedra]

I voted Rios because he throws every punch with the intent to do real damage.

[Hulk]

Well it looks like the only way to settle this is to have Kirkland and Rios fight each other.

[Master]

As good as these lot are, they are no Tyson or Nigel Benn.

[Spicoli]

Benn was at times rocked and hurt by not so huge bangers to start he can't be considered "ferocious"

even though he was trying to rip off heads and shate down necks early on!

[Slim the BoxingManiac]

Definitely Rios. Kirkland did a nice job in his fight with Alfredo, but watching a zombie-like weight drained Rios pound the shit out of a well trained guy who could have done nothing to save himself was a wake up call for me.

Still makes Benn ferocious, every punch was aimed to take you apart.
