    One of the more exciting of his generation,but most of all time?

    Not for me nor I suspect the vast majority of boxing fans.

    He was good value though.

    I wouldnt say he was the most exciting ever.

    guys like:

    Bobby Chacon
    Saad Muhammad
    Carmen Basilio
    Arturo Gatti
    Danny Lopez
    Roberto Duran
    Jung Koo Chang

    Were all more exciting than Nige but hes up there probably top 20.

    Prince Naseem Hamed for me, I can imagine Duran also but I wasn't born then.

    I think Tommy should have a place here. He came to fight and each of his fights had some great excitement. How many boring fights was he in?

    Thank you. I always thought Tommy comes to fight, and that goes for Hagler also. They always came to fight and win. Tyson is another one. There are so many exciting fighters. Lloyd Honeyghan. Very underrated as an exciting fighter.

    Forgot about Honeyghan ! He didn`t shine for long, but man could he bring it ! What an upset it was when he dethroned Curry...
