    Marvin Hagler. Didn't get a title shot until his 40th fight I believe and then got robbed.....so he started knocking out people. Nice guy to boot.....he still is my hero

    Hagler made an eternal boxing fan out of me. Storys of Ali told by my father too.

    Thomas Hearns

    Before I was into the sport, I always thought boxers were huge muscle men. He changed my mind because his body (at welterweight) was just like mine

    The closest thing to a "boxing hero" that I had when I was a kid was Mike Tyson. I watched his fights obsessively back when I was about 8 years old.
