    Besides the obvious ones, I always liked Mavrovic. He was shown on most of Henry Maske's oder Axel Schulz' undercards on German television. It was always great watching him knock out some bums

    you will be able to see him again in few months when his ribs heal. he had to fight enad ličina in cruserweight fight, but he injured rib in sparring so fight is postponed.

    Tyson. I know he wasn't the best, but still my favorite.

    Due to being my favorite era it makes it even harder to pick just a single fighter even a single bout.

    At first I would have picked Lewis, but now that I have gone through most of Holyfield's career set, I have come to the conclusion that he was the best fighter. It is undoubtedly him, he represented everything that was good in the 90's era; Heart, speed, wit, determination, entertainment, Good Fundamentals and a dose of err.. other things of a particular nature (a 90's thing as well :lol:). Simply never in a dull fight and always willing and ready to take on anyone and everyone.

    It's a shame he's so criminally underrated amongst others nowadays. I believe if he had got the decision against Valev it would have at least given him some closure on being a 5-Time World Champion, but I guess he has his baby bills to pay. :-(
