    I know "coolest" is a pretty bent term but I couldn't think of a suitable word to replace it with.
    So who just oozes cool for you.

    Duran - those eyes and that demeanor. Ooft
    Ali - confident and cheeky as hell. never seen him lose his cool once.
    Cotto - that face. stare down pro. calm and collected. (lets forget the pink attire and bedsharing antics)
    Hearns - something about that man.
    Foreman - pre comeback just door as hell with his one word answers in interviews and that confidence.
    Naseem Hamed - surely no explanation required

    CHISORA - "I SWING BOTH WAYS PLAYA"

    wilfredo benitez is pretty much swag incarnate, definitely one of the coolest cats to step in the square circle.

    Don't think I agree with the Money shout. Certainly our man Roy but Floyd comes across like a petulant child to me. I'll say again though, i'm starting to think he is technically the greatest to ever enter the ring. Not the goat. But purely on ability and skill. The greatest.

    difference in opinion. floyd got a lot of swag and probably made boxing cooler than it already is. floyd makes money making look cool and easy. he's just the top dog. he's got a lot of haters but you see how he shakes em off.

    For me in recent times for some reason Barrera was always considered coolest mofo. Everybody loved that guy. Rj is just the classiest, coolest cat, but for those that never forgot, they knew in his day he was an all time badass too. Don't let that little smile fool you he'll make a highlight ko reel outta you!

    Aww it was brilliant - a face off style show with Vitali Klitschko and they are discussing Chisora's previous where he kissed one of his opponents at a press conference.
