    Arturo Gatti, is my fighter of the decade, 3 Wars with Ward, carrying on after getting hit with everything in most of his fights, the entertainment he brought to every fight and sadly passing away last year. He was one hell of a fighter/warrior! Not saying he was the best boxer but for heart, courage and desire which is what a fighter is there is none better IMO

    Mayweather has been more consistent than any fighter over the entire 10 years in question.

    Mayweather.

    Pacquiao for sheer excitement.

    Mayweather close second, but the 2 year lay off hurts him in this regards.

    While I don't disagree Gatti was exciting, but picking him over Pacquiao ignores the context of Pac's wins (historical) and would be sheer sadism.

    Cant believe no fellow brit has given Ricky a shout! Or even Winky, Tito, De la Hoya. Or even Marco Antonio Barrera, Erik Morales people like these greats surely did sumthin. Morales even beat manny!
