That is a very strange "all time" list...well, except for Morales. Vargas? Ward? I'd figure that to be a regional thing, but they are from opposite sides of the country! Mayorga is one of the most overrated guys in history...I can't believe he is still riding the Forrest wave...Cotto is fine, but as a all time fave? I'd only expect that from Puerto Ricans (no racist).

 

1) Hatton - exciting, man of the people, fought with heart.

2) Ali - exciting, man of the people, did more for the sport than anyone

3) Calzaghe - unique style, electric hand speed and lit up boxing in the Uk, especially Wales

4) Tyson - lit up the sport in the 80s and 90s, a ferocious monster!

5) Oscar de la hoya - great fighter and a top man outside of it

 

Cant believe I forgot Naz!!!

Great fighter, unique style and he was great to watch. His interviews were amazing! As were the ring entrances
