    Ali, most exciting and inspirational guy, boxing's greatest
    Hagler, in my youth he was the man, such a cool operator, the best of a great era
    Tyson , mostly on career impact, not record, but boy he was exciting.
    Klitscho brothers, for ending US dominance and giving me years of entertainment
    GGG, amazing talent that I believe he will be a GOAT.

    Questions, mate.

    Did you hate Oscar until he fought Fernando and then that was what earned your respect? Not many people were fans of both at the team. And aren't you Puerto Rican!? Not a single one of your compatriots in there!?

    Nah, i went against oscar in all his big fights upto to the tito fight...when he got robbed i was like man this dude just put on a clinic and hebmade me as a fan that night..

    Ive been a fan of Vargas since his amatuer days, and my late uncle used to own a pct. Of his purse when he turned professional so ive always been a huge fan of Vargas.. i also went with Vargas against De la hoya, and got crushed!

    And im Mexican American BTW.. but i do like pueto rican fighters, and Camacho Sr. Was my favorite PR fighter..."Macho Time".
