    Usyk, Inoue, Bam, Bivol, and honestly…. Rollie. His ****-it attitude both at pressers and fights, willingness to fight the best, and surprisingly effective awkwardness is entertaining AF to me, lol.

    Lately I have been more NJ centric

    Shakur Stevenson
    Vito Mielnicki
    Ray Ford Jr

    I try and follow them the best I can

    I dont have many favorite fighters anymore. Inoue, Mauricio Lara though he has faded, Anthony cacace is fun to watch

    I like fighters that have actually proven themselves unlike hype jobs.

    Favorite to watch? Inoue, Bam, Opetaia, Vergil, Kabayel. Nothing boring is happening if one of them is in the ring.

    Favorites in terms of personality? Usyk, Vergil, Bam, Shakur, Hrgovic. Why Shakur? His faceoffs and press conferences amuse me -- he can't control his facial expressions when to other guy is talking. Teo: "I'M GONNA **** YOU!" Shakur: huh? (with a confused look on his face).
