Another census: your 5 favourite fighters from history

1. Ezzard Charles
2. Jersey Joe Walcott
3. Julio Cesar Chavez
4. Sugar Ray Robinson
5. Floyd Patterson

The top 3 normally stay the same number 4/5 always changes it normally between Benitez, Basilio, Robinson, Frazier, Patterson, Barbados Demon or Arguello.

 

1. Sugar Ray Leonard-For me, he is the perfect fighter
2. Felix Trinidad-Fighter that made me love boxing when I first started boxing
3. Muhammad Ali-When I first started boxing, I read everything there was to read about him
4. Mike Tyson-Growing up, he was everywhere. He brought excitement to boxing. I remember seeing him in Pepsi commercials. I loved Mike Tyson's Punchout.
5. Roy Jones Jr.-I saw his loss in the 88 olympics. From that point on I wanted him to become champoin.

 

1. Pernell Whitaker
2. Roy Jones Jr.
3. Harry Greb
4. Ray Robinson
5. Ezzard Charles

Just missing the cut: Ricardo Lopez, Jose Napoles, Kid Gavilan, Marvin Hagler, Tommy Hearns, Yuri Arbachakov

 

There are just some fighters(or anythings that you consider favorites) that hit you the right way. Yuri's poise and calm in the ring at all times, and his ability to make the right decisions in the line of fire, were amazing. His inside and mid-range skills were amazing because of how controlled he was. He would counter perfectly, slip a shot, look for an opening, and land his own. He never ever got sloppy, or did anything that could've been detrimental to himself. Technically sound as they came as well, and a great finisher, as he was very cool, calm, and collected even in that, similar to a Gomez type.

 

Mike Tyson
Pernell Whitaker
Thomas Hearns
Carlos Monzon
Aaron Pryor

 

This is a really rough draft so yea:

1.Mike Tyson
2.Rocky Marciano
3.Jack Dempsey
4.Jack Johnson
5.Muhammad Ali

 

Roberto Duran
