Your top five fighters with the biggest heart?

[Preme]

I think Lacy should have a mention... He showed great heart to keep trying in his last outing, even when it was clear he wasn't gunna win, he showed great heart not to quit, and even TRY and do something - then to fight first fight back against a pretty good fighter tonight... good heart imo

Biologically I'm going to have to go with Valuev.

From fights i've actually watched (in no order):

Ali- Eventhough fnr3 giving him 50 out of a possible 100 (what a joke) i think he had a lot. He said no to the government for something he didn't believe in and served an unjust punishment. In Ali-Frazier I round 11, everyone thought he was rocked by the shot frazier hit him with but to me it looked like he was mocking frazier.
Litzau- Completely out on his feet but rallied and won the fight.
I'll say Marciano eventhough it's easy to keep fighting in a fight you're losing when you know all you need is one good shot and its over.
Chuvalo- Greatest chin ever or not you need to have something else to survive Ali, Foreman, and Frazier without being knocked down.
Chuvalo- Come on it can't be all chin can it?

1. Mayorga prior to Trinidad
2. Vargas
3. Corrales
4. Morales
5. Barrera
6. Greg Haugan
7. Hagler
8. Duran
9. Kelley
10. ?

Mayorga all the way, in the Tito fight he showed TREMENDOUS heart, just not so much last time out against the fag.
Ya gotta love Mayorga, he's a true warrior.
For current fighters I gotta go with:

1. Diego Corrales
2. Holyfield
3. Mayorga
4. James Toney
5. Bernard Hopkins

Past guys i think Quarry and for sure Chuvalo (how could i forget my Canucklehead brother from another mother)
Love Toney but Heart must extend into the gym ie desire and dedication??
Toney just keeps extending his belt line at the Buffet!

LOL No shit! Toney has a lot of skill but I feel he is much better suited for a lower weight class. That would force him to be in better shape for his fights.
