    Yeah makes me sad cause I realize I'm getting old, all my favorite fighters are retired or shot...

    But I like Martinez, kbros, froch, Mayweather, marez, ward, tarver, off the top of my head...

    Even if it was only because the *******s' tears are delicious nectar to me, I'd still enjoy seeing Floyd keep on winning every single fight. I love smart and technical pure boxers better than rough boxers with a lot of heart, but that's just me.

    I follow Floyd Mayweather Jr, Miguel Cotto, Carl Froch, Mikkel Kessler and JMM's careers religiously and am always very, very nervous before a big fight involving them.

    Quite a few others aswell, Mayweather and Froch are the main two at the moment though. I was always a huge David Haye fan and i can't imagine anything in boxing will ever compare to the pre-fight nerves i had before Haye vs Klitschko. I had tickets to the fight they were supposed to have on June 20th the year before, but Haye pulled out with 2 weeks to go. Didn't book them again for July 2nd the following year but even sitting in my living room with a load of mates round was nerve-racking. He let everyone down that night with the toe excuse and unwillingness to go for broke when it was clear he needed a stoppage. I've never properly forgave him for that but am going to see him fight GSora.

    You know Ian, Morales is one of the guys i was refering to in the OP. He should not be fighting anymore. They should have given him the impossibly unlikely win against Maidana, and he should have retired in a Blaze of Glory

    Sadly, he seems destined to be one of these way too brave for his own good warriors who's gonna end up in trouble in later life :-(
