who's your favourite fighter and why?
who are your fave fighters guys and why? fave at the moment or fave of all time. knock your self out.
i would say my favourite is a prime micheal gerard tyson. why? i think he was awesome and respected his no nonsence ring attitude of his early days. no robe, no frills, black shorts, no fireworks and he's gonna knock you out. awesome. KO power in either hand and speed and combos that was a breath of fresh air for the division at the time.
at the moment its tricky to name one fave fighter. but if i had to i would probably say the hitman. hattons style is exciting and his workrate and work ethic means he's always in an exciting fight. he's a warior and seems like a straight up bloke. he likes a drink and likes his footie so the average bloke can identify with him.
what about you boys?

Re: who's your favourite fighter and why?

Re: who's your favourite fighter and why?
Felix ' Tito ' Trinidad...
He was a good lookin chap!
He was undefeated until his 41st fight...
He was always smiling ....
He had a huge fan base and you could see how much the crowd meant to him!..
He had wicked power, was very accurate and a real good finisher once he got you in trouble..
he was in the right dividions at the right times for big fights, i.e welter had alot of growing and greats stars at the time he fought there...
He always fought the best...
I used to piss myself when papa trinidad slapped tito in the corner.. was funny as hell!!
all the while that tito was on top.. he could have been outboxed by many of his opponents and what with him bieng shaky on his feet during the early rounds you could tell he wasnt invincible.. but that just added to the excitement of watching him because in a way he was vulnerable..
tito is just the man!! ;D
peace

Re: who's your favourite fighter and why?
ATM.....PBF or ODLH i guess, i love that slick fast boxing pretty to watch boxing style.
All Time....A prime Tyson and SRL without doubt. Tyson becuase hey the man bort some interest back into boxing and was so fun to see him knock an opponents head off. SRL simply because he took on all the best out there, i dont care what anyone says he never ducked and he was just a very well rounded boxer.

Re: who's your favourite fighter and why?
Of all time...it's a tossup between Hagler and Duran. I'd probably lean toward Duran.
Right now...probably the short, fat little English guy Hatton. Aren't us "yanks" supposed to hate British fighters? Not me.
I guess Manfredo is my other favorite. Good guy, local guy, fun to watch.

Re: who's your favourite fighter and why?
Im a big Terrible fan, he is exciting and proud fighter, always comes to fight. I like Miguel Cotto too, I like watching good body puncher land viscious shot to the body.

Re: who's your favourite fighter and why?
Now that Pernell Whitaker and Tito Trinidad are long gone I have nobody, I want to go toward the direction of Floyd but I just don't like his attitude.

Ye i know what ya mean... there hasnt been a total package since fighters like tito, pernell, jcc, oscar etc
i think the closest person that isnt retired or about to retire is winky and jermaine...
and they arent as exciting as the names above, theyr extremely good just not the same thou

Re: who's your favourite fighter and why?
I always liked irish mickey ward after I watched him fight arturo gatti... just an awesome fight, plus he's a working class hero
needed a better nickname though... cuz I mean he's not really irish...

Re: who's your favourite fighter and why?
hey fightinfireman if you liked the gatti ward trilogy mate you should check out the micky ward vs shea neary fight. that was a quality scrap aswell. body punching each other all over the ring.

Promoters over here like to create race wars, Cooney Vs Holmes was a marketing success (Great White Hope) for some reason they like to think that the Irish represent that great white hope (I have no clue why), they made a movie about it (Damon Wayans) I forgot the name but it was funny, they put Irish T-shirts on him with the flag even though he was not irish.

Re: who's your favourite fighter and why?
The Great White Hype u mean that film brazilian ??

Re: who's your favourite fighter and why?
yeah its the great white hype. with samual l jackson as the reverant. he's an excentric over the top boxing promoter who will screw over anyone and do anything to sell a fight. remind you of anyone?

Re: who's your favourite fighter and why?
Pacquaio...Why? Because hes awesome.

Re: who's your favourite fighter and why?
Evander Holyfield
Even though i wish he would of stayed retired.
He defines the words Heart, Skill, Valor, and my favorite, Warrior.

Re: who's your favourite fighter and why?
Hagler and my cousin Luke Capuano....I thought Hagler embodied what a fighter is..he combined old school with the new school...the ultimate fighter....IMO
And "The Brockton Blockbuster" of course!!!! 49-0 retired on top....never gave in to temptation to come back and had the biggest heart and steel will of all time...

Hagler was awesome, but he dissappointed all his fans when he retired, he caught a bad decision but he did not have to go out like that.

yeah...that sucked bigtime....but he knew he was near the end and after all he did to have the judges do him wrong....well, he had nothing left to prove...

Yeah I agree with both of you in a way.. I wish he hadn't retired, but remember that Leonard refused him a rematch. Remember that. He had been on the slide for several years even before he was robbed in that fight anyways. Hearns was his last great performance, against Mugabi it was a thrilling war but in his prime he wouldn't have had the same kind of troubles imo, he was clearly past his best. But he did beat Leonard, and could have again. Since SRL refused to fight though, what else was left for Hagler to do?? Only risk tarnishing his legacy imo.

Re: who's your favourite fighter and why?
Mikkel Kessler due to his achievements and because I have no doubt in Mikkel’s skills and my own 12 years as a fighter – when everybody doubted Kessler and hyped Lacy it was an atomic winter for me, but in the end I ended at top! Very top – remember that I claimed that Kessler was good and Lacy would be exposed! Today most posters forget that fact!!!! – Kessler will be the best SMW ever – laugh and blame royal but as in the Lacy atomic storm I will once again be on top…. ….

Today most posters know that, because they have each shown up differently.. But Kessler still hasn't fought anyone anywhere near as good as Calzaghe, and I don't think he has done anything that Lacy couldn't have done himself before he fought JOe(although I do certainly hold Kessler in a higher regard then Lac today). The only reason you said that Kessler would prove better from the beginning is because you are a racist moron.
