    Too many favorites to count such as Arguello and Napoles.

    My least favorite is Tony Ayala Jr mainly due to being an absolute scumbag.

    Jimmy McLarnin. Been deep diving him a lot lately.. massively underappreciated fighter.. it's mostly purists that know his name.. the casuals have no idea who he is .. which is a shame because he's right up there with Greb, Langford, SRR etc.. certainly the greatest European fighter ever.. one of the best resumes in history.. fought 14 HOFers beat 13 i think.. has probably the greatest first round KO in history over young Corbett III.. was beating legit legends even as a scrawny teenager.. the more you look at his career achievements & wins the more impressed you will be.

    Least favourite.. fk id be here forever.. tryna think of fighters i cant stand & who are massively overrated.. You know what.. Crawford.. his resume is pish for all the hype & push he gets.. who on his resume does anyone seriously think will be HOF worthy one day? & he hydrates 20lbs + overnight :lol:

    Junto. Future GOAT.

    To watch? Shakur (boring)
    As a person? AJ
    To see flopping around on the canvas? Broner/Benn

    All time:
    Favorite: Hagler, he's the reason I like boxing.

    Least Favorite: Amir Khan, or Brandon Rios. Pretty sure every fight I've ever seen them in, I've rooted for the opponents no matter who it was. Even Golovkin (who I'm not a fan of), I've rooted for before :lol:

    Current:

    Favorite: Boots, Crawford a close 2nd

    Least Favorite: Berlanga (who I think is near my Khan and Rios levels of dislike)

    My favorite was and is Muhammad Ali. He had so many big fights and big moments.

    My least favorite is Shakur Stevenson. While it is obvious he has skills, his ultra-safety first style makes for embarrassingly horrible entertainment.

    Could Capt. Hook be former cruiserweight champion Marco Huck?

    Salvador Sanchez my favorite
    Adrien Broner, least favorite. It was an absolute joy watching Marcos Madiana not only beat the hell out of him, but essentially started his career on its downward spiral. The ass whoopin that keeps on giving, I like to say.
