    I used to love it when Mayorga would let himself be hit three times. That was bad ass.

    Manny's can a be a bit lame (and Ali did it already), Mayweather is a also a bit dickish with the smiling when I'm hurt thing.

    I don't know if it's really considered taunting but Emanuel Augustus dancing and drunken boxing was hilarious.

    I remember thinking it was very funny during Ali-Quarry (2 I think) when Jerry hit Ali with a good hook...and Ali made a gesture where he pretended to wilt like a flower :lol: as if to say "big whoop, you hit me with that ***** shot".

    SRL's "Hit me", Then wind up & "Bolo punch" combo was always a great taunt.

    I don't know what fight it was when Cassius Clay was letting some guy just blast him in the ribs about 10 times in a row and he was just whispering in his ear, allowing him to punch. Does anybody know what fight that was? It was funny.

    Its funny that Mayorga did that against Trinidad and ended up being stopped.

    I don't think Manny's is really a taunt as much as he is just trying to show his opponent that they haven't hurt him.

    Mayweather smiles when he gets caught, as if too say good job, but it had no effect. He remains composed and keeps his cool, whereas some fighter feel the need to start slugging back whenever they get hit.
