First, i want to say i respect anyone who fights in the ring with the exception of James Butler and maybe a couple others, but some guys I have a ton of respect for because of their heart, conduct, etc. For me Diego Corrales, Winky Wright, Hatton, and Barrera come to mind.
I agree with your list i would def love to add COTTO big time!
that guy fights like every couple months and gives us Exciting fights man!
i got mad love respect for him! hes gonna be HUGE son!
PACMAN
Morales
Cotto
JMM
i respect In Jin Chi alot too anyone who keeps bringin it and keeps coming back despite losses and not getting love from HBO thats respectful i hope he FINALLY gets his next month.
Yeah Cotto Pac JMM Morales all belong on the list. Cotto is a great advocate for the sport and is a class act
Definitely Zab Judah.

The punch to Floyd's nuts was an accident, and so was the one to the back of the head.
And the brawl was all Roger's fault, Zab was just trying to keep the peace when he was throwing those wild haymakers.

Bernard Hopkins - People may say he is boring (which I don't understand because every time you watch him fight is equivilent to a 30 minute boxing lesson), but you can't deny his unique discipline and his warrior spirit. I didn't much care for his attitude after the Taylor losses, but I understand that when you've been on top for as long as B-Hop, losing a close decision has to be a huge blow to your ego. Either way I respect the hell out of him for what he has done and continues to do in the ring. He's never ducked anyone (as far as I know), he's never undertrained and taken someone lightly, he comes to fight every time he gets in the ring.
Floyd Mayweather Jr - I respect the hell out of him for his in-ring work, and I also have a lot of sympathy for him because I feel that he isn't getting the respect and credit he deserves. He absolutely dominated Baldomir with his masterful skills and everyone jumped on his back saying he was "boring" (and to those people I say maybe you should watch the UFC/MMA instead). He comes off as brash and arrogant, but thats a quality I really like in fighters.
