    Manny Pacquaio
    Fighting Harada
    Ceferino Garcia
    Pancho Villa
    Pongsaklek Wonjongkam

    Honorable Mentions:

    Khaosai Galaxy
    David Tua

    Depending on what Nonito Donaire does before the end of his career, he might find his way onto this list too.

    Tua is from Samoa, so geographically speaking I think that counts as Asian. Unless Samoans stopped counting as Asians and nobody told me lol. I think Samoa falls under the "Asia-Pacific Islanders" umbrella though

    No. Kingpetch isn't even the greatest Thai fighter.
