Who is your favorite fighters and why?

current?

 

current, cotto, true warrior. all time, ali, icon, and master boxer, smartest fighter around, massive heart and entertainer

 

marco antonio barrera - great style in the ring but i fell in love with him outside, the way he carried himself a very calm manner until he signed to fight you then it was a war. the way hed fight you was like you beat up his mumma. i also loved the fact that he grew up in an upper middle class family and was on his way to becoming a lawyer when he stopped to pursue a boxing career, like he did not need boxing he did not need to fight to put food on the table but that fire in his belly he had to box

 

Vitali Klitscko was my favorite, but he has retired, so now it is Vladimir Klitschko...............

Golovkin
Kovalev
Martinez
Pac
Provodnikov
Lomachenko
and so many others

 

im an adult, i can like every fighter im not a teenage boy that have favorite athletes

 

:rofl So superior. All good man I don't really have a favorite at the moment either. I just thought what you wrote was funny.

 

I was asked this the other day and I don't think I have a favorite.

 

All time Ali, Current hard to pick one Floyd/Ward/Rigo/Kovalev.

 

mikey Garcia
juan manuel marquez
james toney
tito Trinidad
johnny tapia
Michael carbjal
Julio cesar chavez
all were not hard to find an left it all in ring

 

So many that I have liked over the years and even today.

All time possibly - S R Leonard, De La Hoya
Today, possibly - Mayweather maybe Pacquiao, Cotto

So many great fighters

 

All time would be Duran for me. Sometimes his behavior was classless, but the 1st time I saw him in about 1970, I was simply blown away by his intensity. Plus he fought EVERYONE, and I do mean EVERYONE, no matter how much bigger they were and at what stage he was at in his career. Presently, it has to be Miguel Cotto. He has massive flaws, but he fights everyone and seems like a decent fellow.

 

if you don't say calzaghe i'm going to say it for you

 

So happy you mentioned Johnny Tapia:good. He's one of my favorites, too.
