Who's your favourite non-British fighter?

Its hard to pinpoint in a way but its just a mixture of being humble but charismatic whilst also having a style that is crowd pleasing and when he says he puts himself on the line he means it.

I think that is what Brits go for in general

 

Glen Johnson.

Lopez.

Just really enjoy watching him fight.

 

No fighters from Ireland(seeing as I'm not British) are even close to being my favourite fighters, never have been really. At the moment the guys I like most are Miguel Acosta, Roman Gonzalez, Wilfredo Vazquez Jr, Miguel Cotto and Ricardo Cordoba.

 

What's your thoughts on the Acosta-Rios fight? :think

 

I think Acosta will win, but I can see a case being made otherwise. I just think his style matches up favourably to that of Rios. He's quite an adept counter-puncher, and has the handspeed to give Rios trouble. He hits like a truck too, but I cant see him stopping Rios, he's too big at the weight for that. Then again, if Rios can impose himself on Miguel(he will weigh about 154 on fight night) he could be in trouble, the sheer size of Rios may be all he needs. But I think Acosta can take it, as long as he stays smart and doesn't think he can stand and trade with Rios.

 

Still Cotto & Nonito for me :yep
