    To be a truly great fighter you surely have to be a truly great athlete too. It'd be interesting to see how many fighters who are/were great that are/were an exception to the rule.....

    I'd say Duran would have to be at the top of that list. Anyone think of any others?
    Carlos Monzon certainly lived large outside of the ring whilst still fighting. The difference being that Monzon & Duran were supremely talented boxers & could get away with it due to their skills. Ricky just doesn't have anywhere near the same talent
