    Marco Antonio Barrera. I just feel so much for the guy and I don't even know him.

    I'd like to be eloquent and stuff..but that's the bottom line.

    Nothing like watching the opening scene of Liston and Foreman starring down their opponents with the most menacing stares of all time, followed by a Marciano knockout punch on Walcott after he pretends to smash the camera with his right hand, as requim for a dream music plays in the background. it gives me the goosebumps.

    Arturo Gatti or Bobby Chacon. Its inspirational what these guys were willing to go through to win. Triumph of the human spirit

    Oh yeah, and Jimmy young, or sonny Liston. I'll watch a boring Jimmy young UD anyday. his defense and trickiness are what make him one of my favs.

    Olivares vs Rose would cheer up anyone, except the Aussies.

    Zatate-Rodolfo Marinez is my favourite. THAT is how you win a ****ing title. You know what I love about that fight? Everything.
