I always appreciate that you will describe someone as "The Great", even when pointing out someone else's superiority, or drawing attention to something the fighter lacks. It's a great antidote to the "Duran/Hagler/Lewis was complete shit" that emerges on other parts of Boxrec

Could I hazard Duke McKenzie? That man could box, very well schooled.

Jason Booth in his prime was a very nice boxer with little power - Jamie McDonnell is in the same mould.

Hiroki Ioka,Masamori Tokuyama,Hozumi Hasegawa.

I was going to say Colin McMillan, but I thought I'd get shot down because he wasn't 'great'.

Sweet C certainly had 'zero' power.

I watched a lot of his fights live in the early 90s & he just could not punch at all: classy & smooth boxer though.

I do not if you have seen them fight, but boy!, they were top notch. Very underappreciated fighters. Very underrated.

Joe Brown wasn't without power.
