1. Joe Frazier
2. Floyd Patterson
3. Teófilo Stevenson
Frazier is the boxer I wish I could be. I know his style comes from the tools he was given but I love fighters that live in the strike zone and manage to keep the wits about them.
Patterson, well I'm just a beginner and the peek-a-boo is what I use. It's effective and safe. He was a classy gentleman as well.
Stevenson is one of those mirages from childhood. I'm still not sure he ever existed. Part folk hero/part superhero.
Honorable Mentions
Sugar Ray Robinson - I still think he was the best ever.
Thomas Hearns
Ali - The Strongest Will of any fighter
