Whether youre an avid old school boxing fan, a keyboard warrior or a boxer yourself who is your favorite fighter to watch? I make this thread after creating another thread about DLH's style and how fantastic i think it is. It got me thinking, whose my favorite fighter to watch? They can be current, modern time or classic fighters it doest matter. My favorite stylistically right now and who i think is probably the most aesthetically pleasing boxer is Jorge Linares. Ive been watching the kid grow since he was 7-0 and through his years in Japan because damn is the kid talented. I know alot of you saw him for the first time against DeMarco and though he lost he left one helluva impression on how beautiful boxing can be. modern times would have to be a lightweight Sugar Shane Mosley, Pernell Whitaker and Ike Quartey. I thought those guys were beautiful to watch in there prime as well and all for differnent reasons. Quartey being a tank, Mosley being so damn fast and powerful and Pernell being...well...Pernell. Evander Holyfield also gets an honorable mention Classic would ahve to of course be Ali, Duran, Leonard, Hagler and host more lol I love most the classic except not too far back. I enjoy learning about it but i find it hard to learn from the benny leonards, sam langfords, harry grebs etc... anyway you dont have to answer all but whose your favorite? Id like to youtube it myself. Ricardo Lopez Orlando Canizales Johnny Tapia MAB Morales all other honorable mentions lol
RJJ Bernard Hopkins ODLH Mosley FMJ JMM MAB EM I loved wondering which Zab would turn up Miguel Cotto Ali Duran SRL Hatton Calzaghe I also love watching Jorge Linares.
