    So what you are saying is you are into men? If you are going to pick a man to call sexy then it clearly has to be Eric "Butterbean" Esch and Tyson "Uncle Fester" Fury. Those are some studly men.

    Likable: Kostya Tszyu, Usyk (he's very feel).

    Interesting and likable in their own way: Tyson Fury, Mike Tyson.

    Unlikable: boxers who showboat against and over-celebrate wins over low level opposition.

    James Toney. Came across as a hot tempered ***** in the media and was disrespectful to most of his opponents. But actually the nicest guy in the room with fans. A good guy

    I don't really care what kind of person a fighter is nor what he does outside the ring.

    I'm definitely not gay. I'm Burt Reynolds level hetero.

    Yes. Devilishly handsome face, million dollar smile, absolute scholar and a gent, awesome tatts, excellent fighter and a fearless road warrior, and a dreamy muscular bod.

    David Price,
    Isaac Chamberlain,
    Joshua Buatsi
    Andy Ruiz Jr

    A lot of people hate on Keith Thurman but i love the guy.

    Think he's funny, goofy (but in an endearing way), genuine, tries to hype the fight the best he can in his screwball way, and i like that he has a range of interests away from the ring.

    Hurd seems like a solid guy away from the ring too. I'm just always rooting for him. J-Rock for that matter was a solid, genuine dude too.

    Shawn Porter shout out. I like his work on PBC.

    You name a dude who fought only a couple years ago acting like he's from an entirely different generational breed who is also at the peak of the pyramid of corruption in the sport. Margarito is the literal face of corruption in boxing for recent times... Tell Tony I said "hi."

    Katsunari Takayama, Shawn Porter, Joseph Parker, Srisaket Rungvisai... I once saw a video of Dorticos playing with pigeons in his backyard.
