    Default Durable Fighters

    Orlando Salido has my vote.
    Knocked out or stopped about 4 times in his first three years.

    60 + fights later and he is still banging with young guns.
    Gamboa, Junanma, Lomanchenko, Garcia and most recent Francisco Vargas.


    Hasn't slowed yet. Never heard him speak, does he slur? Or his speech is fine?
    43-13-4
    Salido= Durable.
    Old school James Toney was durable for close to 20 years. Fell off around S Peter
    69-5-3.
    Up till then JT= Durable.

    Hmm, i wanna say:

    -Juan Manuel Marquez considering length of his career, the pacquiao wars and that hes gone up in weight too. Only now is the rusty wheel getting him.

    - Bradley - considering who hes been in with and the punishment get took

    - by association, does that mean Provo makes the list?

    - Kessler

    - Mickey Ward?

    - Jesse james leija

    - Id say corley but he's kind of just getting walked down these days unless he takes an extreme softy.

    - Gotta put holyfield in there.

    Or is this for only current fighters?

    They want your @$$ beat because upsets make news. News brings about excitement, excitement brings about ratings. The objective is to bring you up to the tower and tear your @$$ down. And if you don't believe that, you're crazy.

    Far back to prove ya point.

    My criteria would include JMM for sure 23 years 64 fights in the game is ridiculous!!. Not Bradley. 12 years 35+ fights is standard career.

    Old school, Holy all day long!

    They just ain't durable like the old school. Salido in that sense...is a throwback fighter. Not so much skillwise, but durability.
