But the West Coast fighters i like arent just because they are from the same area those guys all have special attributes as fighters as to why i like them. I would love Bobby Chacon if he was from Zimbambwe. Same with Vargas,little red Lopez and some of the others. I also should have added Shane Mosley and Mando Muniz to that 2nd list.
I'm sure about the top two - the rest of the list changes regularly. Tito Trinidad Erik Morales Pernell Whitaker Roberto Duran JC Chavez Arturo Gatti Roy Jones Jnr Ricardo Lopez JM Marquez Marvin Hagler
i could stretch my top 10 out and add joe frazier tommy farr george foreman tony galento max schmeling freddie mills sugar ray robinson jake lamotta ted kid lewis carmen basilio eder jofre carlos palomino peter kane muhammad ali and uncle tom cobbley and all

Chris Eubank Muhammad Ali Tommy Hearns Mike Tyson Joe Calzaghe Nigel Benn Roy Jones Jr Lennox Lewis Manny Pacquiao Frank Bruno
Had to add Locche in a tie with Pastrano...a grievious oversight in not listing one of the most fascinating fighters I've ever seen from the beginning. Another, in a tie with Young (not comparing the two overall) is Pep. Weird list, huh?
:goodThis is a phucking phantastic list!!I'm one New Yorker that always appreciated the Philly Gladiators.:good:good
