Stuff that - id like to fight some straweight with 0 wins and over 50 losses, that way I might be able to win.
If I stepped in the ring with anyone decent I would lose by decapitation.

Michael Watson, what boxing's all about -poised, style, grace, excellence.. Historically - Lloyd Marshal, same, but much, much better!

Cheers, I was struggling......I've had a cheech-like lunchtime
In answer to the question (which is a good question now I understand it) I'd like to be a 'Don't Blink' fighter a BIG BANGER that takes people out with one shot.... Naz or Haye or Benn or Tyson

Yep - I'd want to be like the Body Snatcher too. Always on balance, always throws the right shot at the right time, composed, not flash, totally lethal.

Ray Leonard.
I met him at Heathrow airport a couple of years ago. I just couldn't believe he had been a boxer. His face was unmarked. Fast hands, real power in his punches, and plenty of heart (going 15 rounds with Duran in 1980 and slugging it out with Tommy Hearns in 1981). He made an absolute fortune.
