    I always enjoyed Tyson's fights, but am angry with Don King for ruining his career. Tyson was so exciting.

    Now, I like Klitschkos. I enjoy most fights as long as they are on the level. Holyfield was a good heavyweight. Marciano, Louis, Lewis, etc.

    An amateur Tszyu blew me away with skill, pro Tszyu was brutal with power and accuracy (he was two different fighters)
    Ricardo Lopez is boxing defined
    Duran for relentlessness
    Morales for fighting spirit, I love his comebacks when he's taken a bomb, he just comes back like a machine gun

    So many ... so I'll stop

    Sonny Liston, Emile Griffith, Carlos Monzon, Cassius Clay, Bob Foster, Matt Franklin, Salvador Sanchez, Roberto Duran and all those that followed them.

    IMO the light heavyweight division of the 70's was the pinnacle of boxing excitement. As deep a division as I've ever seen plus the added benefit that those guys fought each other with a "never to be seen again" regularity.

    Roy Jones Jr is beginning to get slightly overrated around these parts. :patsch unbeatable.

    I'm only 18 but the best fighters I've seen on TV thus far have been as followers

    Christian Mijares
    Marco Antonio Barrera
    Joe Calzaghe.
    Gerry Penalosa
