    We all have favorite fighters and some fighters we are inclined to watch more than others. But, who did you follow that you were most interested in that you almost never missed a fight if you could help it? Roy Jones, Oscar, Tyson were fun to watch and I never missed a fight. These are the obvious choices, but I would say Roberto Duran had the most memorable career to me that I studied the most and really enjoyed watching. I didnt witness most of it live, but I dug up as much tapes and books as I could over years and my admiration for him and his career grew the more I learned about it. Anyone else got anyone?

    Pac. A super duper elite ATG, and I've been following him since Ledwaba. Didn't always love him, but I've always followed him.

    Erik Morales. In his prime he never really took much more then a couple of months off at a time and would always deliver exciting performances .

    Roy Jones but I was a bit young so the first fight I saw was the one against Hopkins, not sure if that counts, though I did follow him after his losses. I made it a point to watch the fight against Hanshaw and even Tito.

    I set out to follow a few boxers from the begining when I was young, they were Jesse Brinkley, Dominic Guinn and Kelly Pavlik. And I have to say I was never more excited than when Kelly KO'd Taylor, I lost it.

    Yeah i have some fringe contenders that I always followed too. Emmanuel Augustus is one of those guys I always made it a point to watch. Guy had a roller coaster career that was fun to watch through the years.
