Technique, all-time?
Probably Willie Pep. Robinson, IMO, was the p4p best ever; but his defense wasn't as good as Pep's, and the whole point of boxing is to hit without being hit in return.
Joe Louis's technique was excellent as well. Pernell Whitaker is also a good mention, though he was a bit unorthodox. Benny Leonard, Joe Gans, Sam Langford, Moore.
Good question; but I'd probably go with Pep, B. Leonard, Gans, Robinson, Whitaker, or Louis.Last edited by K-DOGG; 11-01-2006, 04:55 PM.

Nice post, you got a lot of guys I brainfarted on like Pep, B Leonard, Gans, Langford, and whitaker.
I think the reason I went with the guys I did was because of their ability to have the total package of offense and defense. Pep and Whitaker were defensive masters for sure, but it'd be nice if they had a lil more offensively.
Winky's another guy I wish I'd added as well.
