Most beloved boxers

SRR has to be on the list. Any old great fighter, for that matter. Great fighters but people put to much nostalgia into them.

 

Well ive got a mate from round where Calzaghes from and apparently he is a bit of a **** in real life, but thats just word of mouth

Maccas a sound guy though, always speaks his mind and despite his run of bad luck I hope he can turn it around and do well at 175, Gave my aunt a free autograph because she gave him a pen to sign autographs when he came without one haha

 

Jermain Taylor

 

My north neighbours , the K-bros.

 

Does he usually charge for them?

 

Khan- everyone loves the guy, takes his losses like a man, highly articulate also.

seriously though Evander 'Real Deal' Holyfield, Arturo 'Thunder' Gatti, Emmanuel Augustus

 

Dlh - srl

 

I don't know about most beloved probably SRR,Ali, and Duran, Arguello & Gatti too. Hagler and Frazier represented everything a fighter should be also imo.

 

How did I not mention Katsidis , Mike has deff cut out his own piece of history in my book.

 

Hatton

Katisidis

Pac

Tyson

Holyfield

Morales

Gatti

Froch

Benn

Bruno

Hagler

JMM

Sweet Pea

Mancini

 

Kessler is amazing, extremely articulate and down to earth, despite the pure bad-ass gangster appearance

 

From the past, we have...

* Joe Louis
* John L. Sullivan
* Muhammad Ali (70's version)
* Alexis Arguello
* Ruben Olivares
* Arturo Gatti
* Bobby Chacon (especially in the early 80's, when he was making his comeback)
* Ricky Hatton

Current fighters who are pretty beloved include...

* Morales
* Cotto
* Ramon Gonzalez in Nicaragua
* Pongsaklek Wongjongkam in Thailand
* Chris John in Indonesia

etc.

 

bad ass gangster appearance? you mean that silly dungeons and dragons/ world of war craft tattoo? when he's not without shirt in the ring he looks and dresses like a metrosexual a male model with blonde hair and blue eyes to boot

 

I was about to ask that same question as well:think
