Not the best example but a prime Chisora's movement reminds me of Frazier.

Crawford to Pernell? But, maybe more power.

Re: Current Fighters Who Remind You of Past Fighters..
i'm sorry, but are you saying that lomachenko is greater than roy jones jr?...if so, are you talking about the current lomachenko compared to the current roy jones jr? if so, i would agree with you. if however, you're talking about prime lomachenko which i assume would be the lomachenko who just fought rigo compared to the prime roy jones who beat james toney and pazienza, then i would either question your mental health or maybe i would just say you got jokes....
Re: Current Fighters Who Remind You of Past Fighters..
yes, i can see the similarities, the athleticism and speed and agility, the ability to deliver Knockout blows with pinpoint precision while moving away. the ease with which either could blast an opponent to the ground with devastatingly fast and powerful combinations...the smiliarity between the two is uncanny.

Filip Hrgović reminds me of Vitali Klitschko.

Golovkin - Kostya Tszyu. Not fully but there are similiarities. I’m currently watching Tszyu Hurtado.

Really....maybe Terry Norris -crawford
Re: Current Fighters Who Remind You of Past Fighters..
I wouldn't compare Crawford to Pernell. I don't really see any similarities there.
Tevin Farmer can look quite similar to Sweet Pea in his highlights with his nice defensive head movement and southpaw stance, but obviously on a much lower level.
Jarrett Hurd reminds me of Antonio Margarito. Blocks a lot of punches with his face but seems to have a good chin, is freakishly big for the weight and comes with relentless pressure so can make more skillful fighters empty their tank early trying to keep him at bay and then take over in the later rounds.
Juan Francisco Estrada reminds me of Juan Manuel Marquez sometimes with his combination punches, particularly when he leads with the uppercut.

He reminds me more of Chavez Jr with his size advantage. Margarito was very big but guys like Williams, Martinez, and even Cintron weren't smaller. Hurd is bigger than mostly everyone at 154.
