    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.

    I dont see Tyson that way,I see him as a swarmer, he was like a wave crashing over your head,but he wasnt a hunter tracking you down.

    I guess I'm thinking of what he did against Holmes. That was stalking because Holmes did find a home with his jab before Mike chopped his legs off.

    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..

    Did the same with Bruce Finch and Donny LaLonde. Scary KOs. He was a killer in there with the power he could generate with his uncommon hand speed.

    Stalking? I'd go with Joe Frazier, maybe Qawi second. Always moving forward and that head movement.
