Post by Ruthless-RKO »

Pick a boxer and give them an attribute which you think will improve them the most.

Tyson Fury. Give him a bit more of power and he'd be a total monster.

Wlad Klitschko. If he had good chin, he could become the man of the division earlier.

Floyd Patterson also could achieve more with a better chin.

And Michael Moorer too.

And Tommy Hearns. Especially him. The god just took a chin away from him in order not to create a monster.

David Tua needed versatility. Could be the second Tyson with it.

He gets a lot of stick (some of it warranted) but I've enjoyed his career.

His boxing brain is worse than his chin.

He doesn't fit this thread, cause you can't choose only one for him. He has a single one and needs the others. :D

Khan doesn’t have the best whiskers.... but I’d say it’s defense that is the biggest issues. He takes big shots flush whereas the top level fighters always roll with the big punches and rarely take a huge shot flush.

Howard Eastman - 3rd and 4th gear.
Woulda been Undisputed.

Carl Froch - Khan-like speed.
Imagine - GOAT potential !

Tyrone Nurse - "that je ne sais quoi"
He had everything in theory, but achieved almost nothing in practice.


Think this would be better with a hybrid thread.
eg. Khan + Froch - what a fighter you'd make with their best bits.
Fury+ Wilder - Imagine that size, boxing ability and explosive one-shot power in one heavyweight !

McCall with Patterson's personality. Ditto Ibeabuchi.

Berbick without Holmes kicking and punching him.

Tyson and Pirog with good backs.

Naz with career-long dedication.
