    I have to go with Gatti, but boy I loved watching all 3 of these guys, very rarely were they ever in a boring fight, good punching power, and it was kill or be killed every fight.

    Matthew Saad Muhammad or Bobby Chacon.


    Out of the three mentioned I guess I would go with Gatti.

    Love those guys too, in fact they were in my top 5-7 most entertaining fights ever- Chacon/Boza Edwards II, Muhammad (who at that time was Franklin)/Marvin Johnson.

    Yeah Chacon-Limon IV is my pick for the greatest fight. Although Chacon-Edwards 2 would probably also be in the top 10. If I had to pick between the two I guess I would go with Chacon. Matthew still has the some of the best highlight KO's, thrilling comebacks and most exciting fights in boxing history.

    OH AND YAEGASHI! Can't believe I forgot him! Yaegashi,Saad Muhammad and Chacon. Any order is fine but that's my top 3 at the moment based on in ring entertainment.

    Of those three, Corrales. Always enjoyed Tito's fight though.

    Vargas was a high level boxer who could punch. His fights with Quartey, Trinidad, DLH and Mosley 1 were all great fights.

    There's so many, but of the three I'd say Gatti is number one but Corrales is only a small step behind.

    Voted Gatti but Vargas in close second. He could bang or box. Seeing him outbox Trinidad was a beautiful scene (before the nut shots, Filthy Felix)
