    Any fighter i used to watch the sport for is now either retired, or should be retired. And so, thus, therefore as such my passion for the sport has pretty much went out the window

    What about y'all?

    I'd still like to see Mayweather lose. But he doesn't want to lose. That's probably why he's ducking Pacquiao.

    I like Alfred Angulo, he's one of the few huge concussive punchers in the sport and can hurt anyone at any time. I would say I only really care for Cotto, R. Marquez and Vic Darchinyan

    Many.

    Cotto is my favorite fighter, but at the end of his career.
    Andre Ward is another guy I follow closely, saw his fight with AA live.
    Gary Russell Jr. -- the kid looks like he could be great. I'm really interested in following his career
    Amir Khan -- I can't stand the guy, so I watch every one of his fights; respect him for taking some tough ones though.
    Kelly Pavlik -- saw him fight live, now I would like him to stay sober and realize his full potential in life, even if that does not include superstardom in the ring.

    I like Chad Dawson. He has a good combination of slick boxing and toughness. He's predominately a boxer but when someone tags him he doesn't shy away from a fight. He almost performs better when he gets hurt.

    I like the guy, maybe he's not what you're looking for in a fighter though. To each their own.

    That was certainly an effective use of your time.

    Khan's my favorite fighter.. but there's plenty of fighters i care to watch

    maiden, donaire, froch, canelo and erik morales (even though he's old) are fighters that i love to watch.

    edit - seth mitchell and chisora are two hw's i don't mind watching either.. altho mitchell sucks.

    Marquez and Froch are the ones who have possession of my heart at this juncture.

    I would add Ricky Burns to that too,but more for the fact that he's local to me.
