    Just a quick reminder.


    Ok, please post 'your top five favourite fighters of all-time'. These threads have been done many times before but people are quick to name fighters off the top of their heads. Since we have some new posters it will refresh our memories on who each posters favourite fighters are. If you need time to think about it please do and post later.

    Please note: Only give five names, either in order from 1 to 5 or just the five without the placings. Don't even mention any other fighters names , eg: "Well I left out Marvin Hagler and he would make my top 10"

    Simple question, simple awnser please. The thread is designed to get people thinking on who their five favourite fighters are and even better if you place them in order from 1 to 5.

    *NO HONOURABLE MENTIONS*
