    Hagler my favourite boxer all time.
    Historically Tom Cribb, bare knuckle era, fought no colour line in championship fights.
    Currently no one standout but always hope Terrence Crawford and Naoya Inoue win their fights.

    First and also my all time favourite is Steve Collins, he's the reason I've been following boxing for 30 years.
    Currently love Usyk, how could you not?!

    My first favorite was Little Red Lopez. My all time favorite changes pretty regularly.
    My current favorite is Esteban 'Ali" Garza. He is a flyweight, 8-0 I think, and I think he has a good future. When he turned pro he sent me a message on Facebook thanking me. I trained his uncle a decade ago and he said that watching us work inspired him to become a fighter and a champion. I thought that it was very nice of him to do that. His uncle trains him.

    There were many better. He disappointed me and my friends at times and in the end he wasn’t as good as Frazier Norton and Ali but Jerry Quarry will always be my hero.
