Who comes close to being a "perfect fighter?"

[Violent Demise]

The closest thing to a perfect fighter is Carl 'The Cobra' Froch.

It's true that his defense is lacking but when you have an indestructable chin and body, wasting time taking defensive action only detracts, much like a sprinter would be foolishly wasting time if he was checking that there was solid ground beneath his feet before each step.

A defense is only necessary when your opponent can hurt you, we don't wear crash helmets when we go outside to protect us from flies, simply not necessary.

So, in conclusion, yes the most perfect fighter is Carl 'The Cobra' Froch.

Stop on your screen again. Thread says perfect fighter. Not crappiest

Lennox couldnt really fight on the inside , and as great as sweatpea was he lacked power.

Pernell Whitaker had more power than you think, the reason he didn't have a higher KO precentage. Is because he was mostly on the backfoot concentrating on defense, but when he needed to come forward and exchange he could.

I mean he was able to stun JCC a few times, he also badly hurt Felix Trinidad. And he KO'ed Disobelys Hurtado in one of the most brutal KO's i've ever seen. Im not saying he was a puncher because he clearly wasn't, but i do think his power was underrated.
