    What boxer do you think had the most exciting career? Surely the criteria for This is up for debate but I’d say maybe... Mega fights, crowd pleasing, never ducked anyone, always put on a show win or lose. Fought everyone and anyone. A boxer whose Fights you watch over and over. Overall A+ entertainment value. Which boxer had the most exciting career? Apologize in advance if this is an awkward question lol

    Manny comes to mind. Of course guys like Ali, Robinson, Duran, Leonard, Holyfield...There's a lot of them who had incredible fights that were classics and meaningful.
