    Said Wlad though makes me sad. Most of the others listed here use boring technique to compensate for disadvantages. Wlad HAS the advantages and still won't entertain.

    I like him personally but waiting for somebody who can break through his cocoon of snorror.

    Ruiz and Hopkins for me. Remember there was even talk of Hopkins moving up to Heavyweight and fighting Ruiz before he lost his belt to Valuev :lol::rofl:patsch

    Add Broner to the list. His fight with Malignaggi almost put me to sleep. Mayweather Jr. is up there too, though. Dude's fights are ****ing boring, like his fight with Guerrero. People were ****ing leaving early because it was so boring.

    I like watching technical fighters...just not guys who have absolutely no chance of knocking out or even hurting there opponent. Chris Byrd's fights were really boring as were Wright's for the most part. You can't exactly say those two guys were exiting. In fact the most exciting fights they had were the ones in which they were taking a beating.

    ODLH was a split dec which could have gone either way
    Hatton It took a double team of Floyd & Joe Cortez to really beat Ricky. Cortez took what little chance Ricky had bynot letting him fight

    Hopkins was very exciting early on in his career, look at his fight with glen johnson that's a good watch, he adapted ask he got on. His ring craft alone is entertainment enough to make good viewing, if your not just a ko chaser
