Who was the most defensively skilled boxer ever?
The toughest as in being able to take abuse and keep standing?/ the toughest in being able to dish out punishment? George Foreman is one of the HARDEST champions in history as far as being able to dish out punishment. Rocky Marciano would fit the bill/ both sides of the coin. The Canadian "Hard Man" George Chuvalo was known as a boxer who could stand up to a tremendous amount of abuse and still come thru effectively. Only Frazier and Foreman ever stopped him in his career. Oscar Bonavena was known as a "Hard Man", himself, though, Psychologically he somewhat baffled the history buffs with counter standards (Ali, Frazier, Patterson. Boxing Historians well know what is meant here....). Go to the Discussion page - here. thanxs.

How old do you need to be to become a pro boxer?
You do not have to be 18 yrs. of age to become a pro boxer. Believe it or not, there is no age requirement to turn professional. Every state in the US has a boxing commission that oversees the rules & regulation for bouts in their particular state. Some might require a parent or guardian signature if you are not 17 years old, but many do not require even that. Many boxers turn pro at age 15 or 16 & go on to have successful careers. The only requirement needed to turn professional boxer is courage & the ability to intelligently defend yourself from harm. I recommend a few years of hard training & minimum of two years experience in the amateur ranks.
