    Muhammad Ali & Erik Morales.

    Both fought all the best men they should have & showed the heart & will of a legend in their careers & especially in their biggest fights.

    Ali in his prime was like poetry in motion + I just loved his interviews & stuff outside the ring, the greatest sportsman of all time IMO.

    Morales was/is simply a born fighter, the ultmate warrior with skills in his prime to match his will, a rare breed of fighter.

    Arturo Gatti. I absolutely loved the heart he showed in the ring.

    I have a long list of guys I really liked (Hagler, Cotto, Holyfield) but Gatti is my all-time favorite.

    When I first started watching boxing.. I guess I was around 13 yrs old or so... Fernando Vargas was the guy to watch. Watching him fight on HBO was what made me a boxing fan. I didnt know much about the sport at all except that Vargas was a total badass and knocked everyone out. Just for that reason alone Vargas will always be my favorite.

    Smokin Joe Frazier. Determination, grit, guts, power; all things the man had in excess.

    Plus we have the trilogy thanks to him and Ali.
