    Hate to do it but gotta go with De La Hoya. He fights the best and has gotten flat out robbed twice in mega fights. Better resume than many top 10 p4p'ers IMO. Im not sure anyone on this board gets hated on as much as DLH.

    sorry about this but Roberto Clemente one of the all time great Baseball players and Humanitarians doesnt get the accolades he deserves considering what he faced and overcame in his day. They should have his #21 retired on all Major league teams........sorry guys just had to let that out.....

    I think he was on his way to become a sensational boxer, too bad his health didnt see it that way. He had speed, height, power, never been KO'ed, lost once by leaving although up by points, and lost due to a decision by a doctor while also being on points. Im glad to see him coming back, and I think he will do some damage in the HW division if his health permits for a little more longer.

    Virgil Hill is a good choice to whoever that picked it. Dariusz also.
