True. I have the same problem in my boxing school. I'm short. So if cannot hit them since I'm out of reach, but they can hit me. If I come closer I can hit them, but that makes me vulnerable because they're all better than me (I'm a beginner). So I got quite a few punches in the face, mostly left hooks when I got too close. But my defence improves and I also gave a few jab/directs. Oh well, my lip is swollen and my left eye got a little smaller but atleast there's progress.

RDJ said:Tyson wasn't the best, I'll admit that right away. I do however think he was the best to look at, in his days. He was very agressive and had a great punch, I loved watching his fights. Tyson was like a pitbull, always attacking. No dancing around people, just hitting them. I like close range fights, Tyson always gets in close.
He should have retired a long time ago. Now I'm stuck with the images of Tyson being KO'd
Tyson was just a shorter stupid version of George Foreman.

roy jones jr., ali, sugar ray robinson, sugar ray leonard, all absolute phenoms who must all be respected for their accomplishments and talent. i am biased to roy jones cause i followed him as a middleweight and saw him dominate hopkins with a broken right hand, toney, and everyother undefeated fighter. the only fighter to go a round without being hit. the only fighter to throw only one punch in a 2 minute period and k.o his opponent without being touched the whole time. rjj hands down

My favorite old school fighter was Jack Dempsy the guy was a true warrior.
As far as "Best" boxer ever.I dont know.Id say Roberto Duran or Dempsy.

marciano may have been undefeated but he would get wooped by tyson, ali, he would i think take out lennox simply cause lewis has a glass jaw, but hell even holyfield would wax that ass, its evolution the guy was slow, ray robinson was ahead of his time with those skills and talent. i think a middleweight fight between ray robinson and roy jones would be pound for pound best fight. hagler was awesome, but i watched a smaller ray leonard win, yes win the fight against him, roy jones or robinson would have given leonard brain damage for stepping up to that weight. oh and there is a new kid on the block, floyd mayweather who is as talented as they come
