    Heart, most fighters that do are often times not the most talented or skillful.

    hmmm, just a few of my favs currently and in the past

    Tyson: monstrous power and killer instinct.

    Gerald McClellan: same as above

    Ali: well he was a genius

    Mayweather: unmatched ring generalship, timing, countering and defensive abilities

    Liston: he was as intimidating as anyone else in the game at any time

    and loads more but my dinners ready so maybe later

    there were hundreds of them back in the day, they are now just old guys sitting round the bar, but the kings hall in belfast isn't one of the most legendary boxing venues in the world for no reason, there were hundreds of wars fought in that place. not to mention the crowd were like rabid animals, they were scarier than the fights :lol:

    Prince Naseem Hamed...what he lacked in ambition and longevity, he made up for in unmatched entertainment and explosive power.

    When he was on the ball, like lets say he made a prediction to KO someone...he was unreal, and so determined.

    exciting fighting style, willingness to take a challenge, good all-round skillset

    not being a complete ***** outside the ring helps too
