    Let your dirtiest confessions and indulgences out in this thread. Got a fighter you like or enjoy watching that most others aren't dying to watch? Let it all out here.

    I enjoy watching Tyrone Nurse fight. His consistent and professional break down and eventual stoppage of an old Willie Limond in Limond's backyard was one of my favorite regional level performances of last year. Pretty brutal ass kicking.

    He throws almost all punches competently, including the uppercut.

    He can fight very well on the inside (for a big guy especially) and commits to the body in his fights. I personally think he's very clever, and his complete lack of power is testament to him doing something right in there, to get as far as he has.

    I dig his upper body movement and general movement as well. He slips and rolls with punches very well. Also like that he has no qualms consistently going to the other guys backyard.

    His last fight. Check out the bloody nose and swollen left eye on Coyle, all by round 4. Solid work. Also, lol at the commentators not mentioning Nurse's accurate rips to the body.

    I rather enjoy watching Bradley Skeete - gets a lot of hate for being a bit feather fisted but I like the intelligent way he goes about his work.

    David Haye. He just seemed a straight up guy at Cruiser but when he stepped up he became a bit more hard work and obnoxious but he is very entertaining inside and outside of the ring. Cant help but like him.

    Wilder. Everything negative we have to say about Wilders career can be credited to his managment. He is game, belives in himself 100% and my opinion is he would happily face everybody in the top 10 of the division but he is being kept away from danger cuz his holders know better. The guy himself may have many faults in the ring but hes my type of fighter just looking to bust people up and knock them out.

    David haye. Outspoken quiche and heavy handed heavyweight. Plus he's in a land of giants at 6"3 he is always up against it.

    Andre ward & mayweather. 2 defensive geniuses people think there boring but boxing is a science to hit and not get hit. And these are the best 2 in the game at that.

    I always tune in to watch broner even though it's hard to argue he's a top 10 welterweight. I'm drawn to him...he's a funny guy and when he lets his hands go he can put on a show.

    Andre Ward is a beast but number 2 behind Mayweather on defence is simply not the case, probably never has been.

    David Haye - phoney wannabe celebrity and enemy of boxing ( but admittedly is entertaining to watch make a fool of himself every chance he gets.
