    I rarely ever root for a particular fighter, but I make exceptions for hometown guys! Bhop is my man, and if I was a list-maker, I'm sure I'd have him 3rd greatest of his era right after May & Pac.

    It will always be Trinidad for me. I understand his flaws, but I bought into the hype then and still do now (I can make excuses if I want).

    Nothing wrong with that! Tito was a hell of a fighter, almost always in exciting fights & was worth the price of admission consistently. When he was at his best he was a ruthless (and dirty - but hey, it's a rough game), wrecking machine. :boxing1

    My dad's was Benny Leonard. My favorite is Ali. My brother's favorite is Mike Tyson and my son's favorite fighter is Manny Pacquiao.

    I love how boxing spans the decades and, in this case, more than a century.

    Picking one is really tough but I guess I have to go with The Real Deal Holyfield.

    Solid trivia question as well. Is it Azumah Nelson?
