to me its zab. dude was more athletic, faster and a bigger puncher than floyd. zab was just naturaly elite. but his hip hop trash talk stupid mentality and poor training kept him of being would he couldve become, an top 20, maybe even top 10 boxer atg. think about it, zab was winning on points against floyd, had he won against floyd his career would have taken a totaly different outcome. had he trained like young tyson zab would have had much easier wins, he would have cruised to wins, just because he was so quick and hard to touch.

Why is De La Hoya on here? He seemed to be very well trained in his prime.

hoya peaked in hi career, unlike prince or zb. thats true.

but at times he traine very poorly, when onl 32 or so against sturm for example

Against Sturm, DLH was obviously trying to gain weight to be a middleweight. I don't think he was just lazy. Oscar always suffered with stamina but I don't believe he ever had poor training habits until the very end of his career.
