    You say mere words can't explain why you like Tatsuyoshi. I would like to know why though. I liked Tatsuyoshi but it would be great to hear from someone who really liked him.

    Simple question but very hard to answer. I was born in ‘90 and I didn’t really start following boxing til the mid 2000’s and then got more into it in the ‘10s, so don’t look down on my answers, lol. Cotto, Rigo, Loma, Marquez. And out of those 4 I think I’ve rewatched more of Lomachenko’s fights so I’ll go with him.
    Honorable mention to Chavez, but it’s hard to pick someone that I haven’t seen fight live(on tv anyways).
    Ask me tomorrow and I’ll probably give a different answer.

    We all get sucked in at different times. Nobody is going to look down on you. We’re all in this sickness together.

    I was born in 72 and sucked in during 1982. I was into Menudo-the music band- into the Dukes of Hazzard and had I been allowed I'd been into Barbies as well but my parents refused to buy me those. Anyways , I was into all kinds of childish things and then, Pryor vs. Arguello 1 and Gomez vs. Pintor happened in less than three weeks. I got sucked into boxing after those two fights and Im still in this craziness lol

    I went to quite a few Nigel fights, huge fan and I was there the night he fought McClellan.




    Yet for some reason I can't stand Conor.

    James toney. I think he was the best heavyweight I've witnessed to have seen, while albeit not being THEE best, if that makes any sense. A contemporary great rising from middleweight!
