    Khaosai Galaxy is as overrated as they come!

    He should also have another L to his ledger :deal:

    Viva La Armando Castro!

    I can cosign this one for myself. I haven't seen enough of Napoles very little of Pedroza.

    His fight against Fenech who was still very potent and Azumhah Nelson are both good ones. Ofcourse his title defense against Paez was the last ever 15 round fight. Grove should have gotten that decision but I had the good fortune of knowing Calvin Grove but I knew his brother much better. His brother Juney told me they were grateful to lose the belt that day and avoid a brewing riot in a bullring MexiCali.

    Those three are in some of the greatest fights of all time. If you don’t watch any other fights of theirs, just watch Boza-Limon, Chacon-Limon 4 and Chacon-Boza 2. They are all unbelievable fights.

    Monzon, Lora, Canto are maybe the main ones. Just laziness when it comes to Lora and Canto. Sounds like I'll love them. Monzon... Not saying that there wasn't great quality to what he did, the results speak for themselves, just have a hard time warming to his style from what I've seen of him.

    Monzon is someone to study I don’t watch him for enjoyments sake personally.

    Guys I've watched many fights of but have had no interest in watching for years now: Sugar Ray Robinson, Roberto Duran, Miguel Cotto, Archie Moore, Willie Pep, Floyd Mayweather, James Toney, Oscar De La Hoya, Bernard Hopkins, Julio Cesar Chavez etc

    Guys I've not watched much of at all:

    Roy Jones Jr - Only the Toney, Hopkins, Calzaghe and Griffin 2 fights I've watched fully and some highlights of his losses.

    Oleksandr Usyk - Never watched any of his fights, will soon though.

    Canelo Alvarez - Never been that interested

    Gennady Golovkin - Same but will watch the fights with Canelo because I've heard they were great.

    Errol Spence Jr - Only saw his fight with Shawn Porter and it was fantastic but never thought to watch anything else.

    Marvin Hagler - I believe the Leonard, Duran, Hearns and Mugabi fights are the only ones I ever watched.

    Vasiliy Lomachenko - Watched highlights but never a full fight.

    Carlos Monzon - Just never been interested.

    Boxers I never get tired of watching: Muhammad Ali, Mike Tyson, Larry Holmes, Matthew Saad Muhammad, Marvin Johnson, Carl Thompson, Carl Froch, Joe Calzaghe, Rocky Marciano, Lennox Lewis, Ruslan Provodnikov, Marcos Maidana, Juan Manuel Marquez, Evander Holyfield, Arturo Gatti, Bobby Chacon, Alexis Arguello, George Foreman, Joe Louis, Michael Katsidis and Tyson Fury.

    I spend way too much time watching fighters above 147. Need to spend some time before posting on those lower weight level fights. Sanchez is the exception. LImon? Boza? Chacon? Zarate? My ignorance.
