5. Bob Fitzsimmons - Although I've not seen much footage, I love his legacy. Prooved it's not the size of the dog in the fight, but the fight in the dog.

4. Muhammed Ali - Have to have him in here somewhere, fact is stranger then fiction with a career that plays out like a film script.

3. Joe Calzaghe - Say what you like about him, I think he's a true warrior, hit him and he'll come straight back at you with his own shots. Amazing self belief that gives him his strength. I like watching him fight.

2. Lennox Lewis - Gentleman boxer, great ring generalship, could box or fight. You can't beat his resolve.

1. Tommy Hearns - Never in a boring fight, amazing right hand, great heart and a true sportsman, I've never heard him complain about fighters or results.

Ummm, you serious?

This is a favorite fighter list. Not a best fighter list.

Someone that made a list could write 5 bums with a combined record of 3-218-7 and it would be fine.....no matter WHERE the fighters were from.

Plus, we are talking an alltime list here. Foreign born fighters werent as big on the boxing scene in say the 20s, 30s, 40s, etc....as they are today. And limited exposure in the decades after that.

On top of that, I have seen Americans with Chavez, Sanchez, Cotto, etc. ALL OVER THESE LISTS!!! Or should we count the PR and Mexican fighters as Americans, just because they are in the same general area? Or do you even know the difference.

The anti-american sentiment with so many of these posters is making me sick lately. Now an american isnt allowed to have a top all time favorite list with american fighters in it.....yet noone says anything about non-american fighters having non-american fighters that have fought for only a few years on theirs...WHICH ALSO DOESNT MATTER BECUASE ITS THEIR FAVORITE LIST!!! It doesnt make a difference who is on it, where they are from, how many fights they had or if they are any good.

The funny thing I am noticing is, the nationalistic sentiment on here comes so much stronger from non-american posters....Id say they are 100x worse than their US counterparts....yet you dont hear amercan posters saying this in EVERY DAMN POST!

Grow the fuck up people.
