    In boxing, we are fans of the sport, but also individuals. Sometimes, two guys we like will face off against each other. One thing is certain: when the punches start flying you know who your true favorite is.

    Name some fights that featured two fighters you liked.

    For me:

    There are talks about Pavlik/Ward going down soon. I like both guys. A few years back, Cotto fought Mosley. Those are two of my favorites. As a kid, the biggest was Hagler fighting Sugar Ray Leonard.

    Donaire-Nishioka. Pacquaio-Cotto. Roy Jones-Otis Grant(I was hoping he wouldn't hurt Otis too much).

    I feel you. I have a lot of admiration and respect for fighters in general. I have a lot of favorites. Some are just a little more dear, though (Hagler, Gatti, Cotto).
