    Marciano showed more heart than Haye ever did fighting with a split nose v a savvy heavy like Charles.

    Please excuse me, there are much more deserving heavyweight champions than both Marciano and Haye to be on this list.

    I deliberately inserted Haye as a gag. As for Marciano, he embodied courage and desire.

    good list. evander has always been completely fearless. ive never seen it in his eyes and hes faced some killers.
    only change i would make would be to replace rocky with foreman. its easy to be tough when youre doing the beating, george has gotten his ass whooped good and kept trying to win best he could.

    after giving it some more thought, i would have to include tex cobb, that man was nothing else if he wasnt tough. dont know who i would drop though, those are all hard core fighting men.
