    Which fighter do you guys think has the biggest heart right now? Who has the will to die in the ring and not quit. I made this thread because we were arguing about this topic.

    at the moment ACTIVE: Juan Manuel Marquez, guy just refuses to lose

    honorable mention(sure I will catch hell for this):Ricky Hatton, guy goes into every fight thinking he will win, and the only way loses is to get brutally KTFO.....guy has tremendous heart....


    this is among active fighters.....

    I can't really think of anyone that comes immediately to mind, Librado Andrade takes a hell of a lot of punishment without ever backing down to it though, he's the type of guy that would walk through repeated sledgehammer blows and still keep coming.

    Bernard Hopkins is as tough as nails too, he's just got the skillset which means even in hard fights, he's not in a war as much as say a Gatti might be.

    Calzaghe deserves mention, gets knocked down, gets right back up and goes to work without letting it bother him, also takes some pretty big shots at times like against Kessler, Bika and Hopkins.

    This question is something that can't really be answered.

    How do you measure if Bobby Chacon's will to win was any greater than Matthew Saad Muhammad? Diego Corrales or Carmen Basilio?

    JMM or Andrade?
