Awesome but were is Hasegawa and Montiel, or Bute and Rafael Marquez ...how can you be a fan of Mabuza and not Rafael who put such a excellent display of boxing skill and power punching against Silence in both fights.
Nice movie video I found on youtube for Joseph Agbeko against Abner Mares. [ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0MEejt4oY7I[/ame]
:-( This isn't meant to be a comprehensive list of fighters I like, guys. FFS, I don't even necessarily like everyone on the list (some are just fighters I was seeking more background information on from other forum users for whatever reason...maybe they were preparing to face someone I am a fan of...or just curiosity after having seen their name pop up...) I come back and update the list every so often, but the threads themselves are always made for a particular reason at the time (other than eventually being included here). I'm not just going to arbitrarily create a pointless thread about every boxer who ever makes the slightest impression on me. That isn't what this is. It's simply a reference list of individual fighters I happen to have made threads specifically about on the forum...which was, you know, explained in the very first post...:yep And for the record I do like Rafa (despite having not made a thread about him) but became more of a diehard Silence fan during their two fights because of the heart he showed when so heavily outgunned.
My bad lol didn't know it was only fighters you've made threads on but clicking and reading now you've done our sport good. It's cool your still a Silence fan, so many give up on fighters after there first couple losses.

Well to call this a Hell of a Thread doesn't quite do it justice... I just read the whole Hurrican Carter thread, as I'd been very interested in his story myself. I'd done a thread too, while I didn't get nearly as cool of info and responses, there was still some good ones. http://www.eastsideboxing.com/forum/showthread.php?t=176411
