    Walker Smith. He is the best and no boxer has or in all likelihood will ever do the things he did.

    LOL, you are an idiot.

    Black people aren't called Black due to their skin colour. Rather, it is because the level of Eumelanin (Black pigment) their skin possesses.
    The MEL in Melanin is Greek for BLACK. As in the spanish, Negre, which simply means, Black. Not to be confused with illiterate Europeans still dumbed down from the Dark ages who mispronounced the term and pronounced it, n-i-g=g=e-r out of stupidity.

    The "White Race" isn't "white", but they think of themselves this way due to the very low and even absence of Eumelanin (black Pigment) in their skin. Although they lack Eumelanin, they do possess Phaoemelanin (Red/Yellow pigment).
    The scientific term for this is, albinism. It's a condition, not a "Race".
    :yep:rofl:rofl

    Let that race crap go dude. It's for losers who have Eumelanin envy. :yep:hi:

    Vernon Forrest the stories i've read about him and his charity work what a true gentleman and a top top fighter. Love Barry Mcguigan classy man, in a time of great tension and bloodshed the man stood up and almost united the deepest of divides while he was fighting, the work he has done outside the ring with regards to the PBA and working with kids is very noteworthy not just a great fighter but a great man. Bhop while many hate him his sheer dedication to the game, his discipline self belief and longevity is amazing. He is IMO the last real old school fighter left in boxing. Chris Eubank, my favorite showman in boxing, **** Tyson i don't consider acting like a scumbag to be entertaining, biting people ect Eubank was ****y showman ect but always did it with class, Outside the ring he is clearly IMO a decent man and was also in some cracking fights Eubank my favorite ever British fighter.

    Malik Scott. A tough, iron-chinned warrior of the unmatched skill and integrity.

    Honest answer - Big George Foreman and Marvelous Marvin Hagler. Big George was a killer and a bully, but a gentleman. Talking to him you would never guess he would bitchslap Smokin Joe and Ken Norton like a child playing with a ragdoll. The Marvelous one was a working class hero type of fighter, tough as hell and never say die attitude. Loved it.

    Don't really have many modern favorites. I respect Mayweathers skillset but dislike almost every other thing about him. I guess Leo Santa Cruz and Ruslan Provodnikov. Santa Cruz won a bout recently and apologized in the post fight interview for not getting the ko. That speaks volumes on his character, shows that he has the skills but also wants to entertain the fans. Respect. Provodnikov's mother celebrating in the ring with her son's blood on her face is an image that will stay with me forever. A true Siberian Rocky that aint messin' with them GMOs in his raw fish and deer hearts.

    My favourite boxer was James Toney.
    Now I like to follow elusive boxers who use that half guard of his, bend a lot sideways on the waist, and shoot the jab while bending: Pirog, Vlasov, Chilemba, Mchunu, Sergio Martinez
