    good diverse list, nice variety of styles here too. out of curiosity why do you like watching ward more than someone like Gatti? (not a knock on ward, who is fun to watch in his own right, but just surprised)

    Props for having Basilio he's a guy who I'm just starting to appreciate, always thought he was great but I've found new respect for him.
