Slick Boxers Who Are Tough.

What about Virgil Hill ?

I think Luis Collazo is pretty slick. He's more of a boxer/puncher but everytime I was his fights he's a clever south paw

I nominate one of my favourite fighters of all time Hector Camacho Snr. He fought monsters and nobody stopped him. Even Chavez was surprised how tough Camacho was; when Hector was worn down and bullied against the ropes he fought back hard. He was slippery as hell, was tough as old boots and had a great chin.

Has to be up there somewhere.

What are we classifying as slick? Because some of the names in this thread I question. Correct me if I'm wrong slick would be chin in shoulder, rolls with the punches, has speed and the usual left arm or right by his waist and feints alot. James Toney, Bhop, Jermaine Taylor, Sugar Ray Robinson were classic examples of slick. One name in this thread I question is Winky Wright because Winky stands in front of his opponent and blocks with his arms in a shell and lets the opponent wail away at him until he counters them. Just wondering where unorthodox falls into as well such as a Naseem Hamed or a Ricardo Mayorga?

Hopkins
Calzaghe could be called slick.
Willie Pep
Ray Robinson
Ray Leonard
Shane Mosley(not really slick, but still tough)
Same goes with Oscar Dela Hoya
Wilfredo Benitez
Muhamad Ali

Agreed, on Ray Leonard, he was definitely tough. He had to be to go toe to toe with Duran for 15 rounds, giving Duran all he could handle.

Leonard could definitely take a good punch. He also had the ability to raise the level of his game when the going got tough, as in the first fight against Hearns, and also against Donny Lalonde, where leonard was hurt and came back strong to score a crushing knockout.

Maybe I look outside the box sometimes, but that was a great sentence using only 2 and 3 letter words. hehe
