        No but if there ever is hopefully he answers the questions directly. I can imagine something this:

          Daniel Zaragoza - Jan 2017

          BEST JAB
          Carlos Zarate
          : Loyal to his school style, he had a wonderful left hand.

          BEST DEFENSE
          Hector Acero-Sanchez
          : He had wonderful waist movement and he used also some clever side steps. He didn’t care about offering a show or about the fans; he only cared about his physical integrity.

          BEST CHIN
          Wayne McCullough
          : He was an offensive fighter, he wasn’t stopped by anything, he was always going forward looking for the victory due to his resistance.

          FASTEST HANDS
          Tracy Patterson
          : His right hand was explosive; you were not able to see it. Once you felt the first punch you would instantly feel the next ones.

          FASTEST FEET
          Seung-Hoon Lee
          : I allowed him to use all the ring; he had space to move away from me. His attack did not have a specific strategy.

          SMARTEST
          Erik Morales:
          He knew to wait for the perfect moment to conquer his first championship despite being that young.

          STRONGEST
          Jeff Fenech:
          He had great strength, despite weighing only 122-pounds.

          BEST PUNCHER
          Paul Banke
          : He never stopped throwing punches from all angles. He didn’t care if he received some (in return as long as he got his shots off).

          BEST SKILLS
          Morales
          : He was undefeated when I faced him; he was really strong and tall for the division.

          BEST OVERALL
          Morales
          : Because of his great (career) trajectory and for having conquered titles in four weight classes.

            Lucian Bute - Feb 2107

            BEST JAB
            Badou Jack
            : It’s a good question. I fought many, many good fighters, many good boxers. I think, in my opinion, Badou Jack. He has a very good jab (and) good distance.

            BEST DEFENSE
            James DeGale
            : He has good skill. A southpaw who changes from orthodox to southpaw many times. (He has) good ability, good speed.

            BEST CHIN
            Librado Andrade
            : Andrade was the tough guy. I fought (him twice) and gave him good, good shots in the first fight and he never (went) down. He always came forward and is a very durable fighter.

            FASTEST HANDS
            DeGale
            : James DeGale had the fastest hands of anybody I fought. Good combinations, speed ?very good speed.

            FASTEST FEET
            DeGale
            : DeGale was very difficult to catch. He is slick but as the rounds go by, I can feel he is not so mobile and takes many shots. He hates to get hit.

            SMARTEST
            DeGale
            : DeGale has the rings smarts and an ability to survive. (He’s) very clever for a fighter. I gave him too much respect early and I guess that is what cost me the fight. Plus, his tactics to delay the combat by spitting his mouthpiece out and holding inside.

            STRONGEST
            Carl Froch
            : Very physical. Not good skill, not good ability, but very strong. Froch was very determined and physically strong. He took some early shots from me but he was not affected. He had a great night and I did not. I wish we would have a rematch.

            BEST PUNCHER
            Alejandro Berrio
            : Very good puncher. With Andrade, he had a good chin, (he) was tough, but (he) was not a big puncher. I think the accumulation of the punches made you tired. Froch has a good punch, good power, but I think it was Berrio.

            BEST SKILLS
            DeGale
            : He’s complete. He has everything. Like I said; skill, speed, movement, distance.

            BEST OVERALL
            DeGale
            : I think James DeGale was the best guy I fought (in the professional ranks). Speed, skill, power too. He was the best. If we include people I fought in the amateurs, I would say Golovkin. (Golovkin) is the best ?good background, good distance, movement, power, he’s the best overall.

                  In these articles you usually see the fighter bitter against some opponents, in these case the opponent is Froch.

                    He's definitely salty.

                      Cory Spinks - Feb 2017

                      BEST JAB
                      Jermain Taylor
                      : I would say the person that had the best jab was Michele Piccirillo…no, let me take that back: Jermain Taylor. Jermain Taylor had the best jab. You could tell he worked on it a lot and he used it to set up everything, so I had to basically try to take his jab from him. Piccirillo, he had a nice snapping jab. It was like a herky-jerky jab but it was a good jab.

                      BEST DEFENSE
                      Zab Judah
                      : I would say Zab because we were both skillful southpaws and I had to adjust and deal with his defense. He had a pretty cool defense. It wasn’t that easy to hit him.

                      FASTEST HANDS
                      Judah
                      : It goes again to Zab. Zab had the fastest hands; I would give that to him. That was one of his attributes; he had fast hands and a little pop.

                      FASTEST FEET
                      Judah
                      : I didn’t fight too many people that had just as fast a hand and foot speed as me, so it has to go to Zab.

                      BEST CHIN
                      Miguel Angel Gonzalez
                      : Rafael Pineda, I hit him and nothing (laughs). I was heavy and I kind of underestimated him and didn’t train as hard as I possibly could. When I got in there, I wished I did (Laughs), very good chin, strong body. I made it through that one but it was tough. I hit him with everything and he wouldn’t stop coming. He fought one of my idols, Pernell (Whitaker) and that got me a little pumped but he wouldn’t budge.
                      I hit Miguel Angel Gonzalez with everything but he wouldn’t go nowhere. I would say he had the best chin because I sat down on a lot of shots and he did not go anywhere. He didn’t take a foot back or anything; I give that to him. Mayorga had a decent chin when he wanted and wasn’t acting silly but I would say Miguel Angel Gonzalez got him though.

                      SMARTEST
                      Judah
                      : I really didn’t fight a person who made me do things they wanted me to do because I was a smart boxer. At first I thought Zab was. He was a smart fighter at that time, at the top of his game and we had two wars.

                      STRONGEST
                      Ricardo Mayorga
                      : He was very strong,. A lot of his punches weren’t straight. He packed a mean punch. I was in tremendous shape but I could tell when I clinched with him, I could tell he was probably the strongest person I fought.

                      BEST PUNCHER
                      Mayorga
                      : I weaved some of them punches and I swear I heard a whistle. He can punch.

                      BOXING SKILLS
                      Miguel Angel Gonzalez
                      : He had smart tactics to fight a southpaw but he was an older fighter but I could tell he did his homework and he came with a gameplan and he tried to execute it but I was being a little hard-headed, at the time.

                      BEST OVERALL
                      Taylor
                      : That’s a toughie. I would have to say the ones that accomplished the most, Mayorga, Jermain Taylor, Zab and Miguel Angel Gonzalez. I would say Jermain Taylor. He knew what was his best and he used it to win the fights and that’s his jab. He had a terrific trainer; Emanuel Steward taught him how to use it even better and he perfected it and it made it real tough to get past his jab.
