    seeing as lists seem to be the order of the day.

    I want your top 5 in any category of your choosing

    it could be;

    top 5 fighters from a particular country
    top 5 most underated/overated
    5 biggest punchers
    top 5 from a particular weight OAT...and so on

    really anything you want but only the top 5, it could be anything from top 5 most slick fighters to top 5 pre fight clashes.

    I'll start off.

    my top 5 Mexican fighters of all time:

    Sanchez
    Chavez
    Saldivar
    Olivares
    Canto

    top 5 light middleweights of all time:

    Hearns
    McCallum
    Norris
    Benvanuti or Winky
    Jackson

    There's no right or wrong and many of these are subjective so DON'T BE SHY :good

    Duran is in number 2, he is a sparring partner for Rocky.

    Tyson was in the most recent one, having an arguement with Tarver whilst sat at ringside I believe.

    Weren't Tyson and Tarver meant to be in negotiations to fight a few years back?

    Duran is a sparring partner in 2 and Tyson is on the sidelines shouting at Dixon (Tarver) in 6 (Balboa):good. If I have to do a 'top 5 list' then I'm going with commentators/panelists/pundits (alive):

    1-The Bunceman (he's a nomad)
    2-John Rawling (ITV)
    3-Richie Woodhall (Setanta and BBC)
    4-Al Bernstein (Showtime, the only American commentator I like)
    5-Duke McKenzie (ITV)

    Anchorman: The Kerrminator:good. Suprise, suprise- Sky's lot aren't present:shock:.
