Favorite boxers

[Fine Vol]

1. Arturo Gatti- Did not have the most talent but heart and toughness, my fav.
2. Roy Jones- Win or lose I just like Roy.
3. Clubber Lang- Lost his touch after filming the series A-team

 

[Lexvol]

He had trouble finding a weight class that suited him, but I always liked watching Chris Byrd fight.

 

[JZVOL]

Never liked Lennox Lewis for some reason.

The Mike Tyson trainwreck was fun to watch.

Evander"The Real Deal" Holyfield would have to be my favorite of all time.

But the best fight I have ever seen was Rocky Balboa vs. Ivan Drago (Communist Russia was a scary place)

 

[SmokeyVol]

Evander
Foreman

 

['Boro-vol]

Gatti and Hatton are both fun to watch.

I believe both of them would take a whippin' with a 2 X 4 and keep coming.

 

[volinbham]

Aaron Pryor
Jorge Paez
Marvin Hagler

 

[justingroves]

Mike Tyson was a trainwreck, but damn, watching him KO people in 1 minute was fun to watch.

 

[Vol Mania 21]

Apollo Creed had the body of a greek god

 

[TuskALoosa]

Apparently, no one on here remembers the toughest man of all time. Randall "Tex" Cobb.

 

[GAVol]

Apparently, no one on here remembers the toughest man of all time. Randall "Tex" Cobb.

I remember Larry Holmes beating him up and Howard Cosell getting so fed up that he quit doing commentary during the fight.

[hatvol96]

Hearns
Duran
Hagler
Pryor
Hopkins

I must give an honorable mention to Terry Norris. The fact he almost beat Ray Leonard to death reserves him a soft spot in my heart. The fact the previous sentence contains the word "almost" is the reason he doesn't make my list of favorites.

 

[BigPapaVol]

Very little Sweet P love on here.

Sweet P
Hagler
Mayweather

 

[TuskALoosa]

John "The Beast" Mugabi
Hector "Macho" Camacho
Ray "Boom Boom" Mancini


Any fighter with a cool nickname that can back it up.

 

[Tenn_Vol_Authority]

Hearns
Duran
Hagler
Pryor
Hopkins

Good list...

I'm glad you omitted Sugar Ray Leonard from that group...

Sugar Ray and Roy Jones catching a beatdown is always cause for celebration.

 

[JTrainDavis]

Ricky Hatton
Marco Antonio Barrera
Joe Calzaghe
Erik Morales

 

[emainvol]

Ricky Hatton
Marco Antonio Barrera
Joe Calzaghe
Erik Morales

I wasn't into boxing until recently, and Calzaghe has been one of my favorites to watch since.

Someone mentioned Chris Byrd, I am with you on that too. Great defensive and technical fighter.

 

[TennTradition]

I would have to say my Corona boxers....maybe my smilie face boxers...it's kind of a toss up

 

[milohimself]

I prefer Calvin Klein boxers. :dance:
