Sugar Ray Robinson - ran Harlem during his time.
Pernell Whitaker - one of the slickest boxers ever.
Bernard Hopkins - symbolizes hard work, dedication, determine, discipline, and persistence.
Floyd Jr - gets the most out of boxing while investing the least.
Joe Louis - I find what he did for his country to be extremely admirable, but they ended up making his AZZ into a martyr.:neutral:

 

last summer after a world cup game he intervened when 2 men were assaulting some guy and ended up being attacked by 10 guys over it and had to have over £1000 of dental work done because the assualt was so bad...... Of the 10 guys that attacked him only 3 have been charged and all they got was curfews and had to pay fines....****ing ridiculous

 

good list, and good reasons, especially mayweather

 

Bert Cooper
Joe Hipp
Bobby Crabtree

Cannot think of another 3 who deserve to be mentioned in the same breath as these three Ring Gods!

george
willie
rocky

Pernell Whitaker

Nicolino Locche - for those who dont know who he is do your homework,
Prince Naseem Hamed

 

****ing hell! Props to the man, he always pissed me off with his inactivity when you consider he wanted to be the next B-Hop or Jermain Taylor. Always struck me as a stand up guy though.
