I just posted my list for most boring fighters, now here is my list for most exciting fighters. Just to let you guys know De lahoya was on the most boring list due to his last couple of fights, not his entire carreer.

1. Juan Manuel Marquez
2. Manny Pacquiao
3. Israel Vasquez
4. Andre Berto
5. Shane Mosley
6. Celestino Caballero
7. Juan Manuel Lopez
8. Abner Mares
9. Chad Dawson

Gotta disagree with these 2.
When I think of James & Hop the word excitement doesn't quite come to mind.
For Hops the 1st words are jab, hug, jab, hug, lunge, jab, lunge, hug.
For James the 1st words are buttermilk biscut, buffet, jenny craig, 24 hr. fitness, diet.

I always get excited about Toney fights. I love a guy who doesnt train, eats himself into obesity and comes out and still kicks ass. He is like Doc Holiday in Tombstone. "Hasim you and I both know you are not telling the truth. You got lucky with Lewis."

I always get excited about Winky fights. That come forward, throw alot of punches cover up wizard is the best!

Note: I have to watch boxing alone because everyone thinks they are boring. :(

The reason I placed them on my list is because sometimes I do like to watch pure boxing instead of the balls out wailing away at the opponent. Neither 1 of them have been knocked out and if an opponent does not belong in the same ring with them then they will expose them for what they are. James and Bhop are getting older but it still cool to see them hang with the young dogs and counter every punch headed their way.

I put them in alphabetical order:

BCD
Bute
Cotto
Gamboa
Izzy
JMM
Juan Diaz
Mosley
Pacman
Pocket Rocket

Ricky Hatton
Manny Pacquiao
Juan Diaz
James Kirkland
Yuriorkis Gamboa
Miguel Cotto
David Haye
Alfredo Angulo
Juan Manuel Marquez
Chris Arreola

Though he just became champion, I think soon we can add Rocky Martinez to the list. Not the best, mind you... but if we're talking about exciting, I've seen enough of Martinez (live) to know that if he's anything, it's that he's exciting to watch. His defense is not the best, and he can look a bit slow-handed at times. But he has good power on both hands, likes to come forward and mix it up, gets agitated when hit, and throws good combinations. I think Rocky will begin making these lists soon.

:)

Katsidis. Has he ever been in a really boring fight?
Izzy Vasquez/Rafa Marquez. Nuff said
Then most of the other guys u have listed.
I miss Corrales too, he always had exciting fights. Just wish him and Gatti had of fought once. That would have been amazing.

Great call on "Chico" Corrales...

Is this active fighters only? If so.

Librado Andrade
Andre Berto
Juan Manuel Marquez
Michael Katsidis
Ricky Hatton
Miguel Cotto
Israel Vasquez
Emanuel Augustus
James Kirkland
Yuri Gamboa

Some shouts to recently retired guys, fighters who're shadows of their former selves & one legend passed on. These guys used to always guarantee I would make sure I watched their fights

Floyd Mayweather Jr
Erik Morales
Arturo Gatti
Jose Luis Castillo
Marco Antonio Barrera
Kostya Tszyu
Diego 'Chico' Corrales RIP

Excellent choices with Katsidis and Corrales (RIP). It's that KO or get KO'ed mentality that puts these guys in the "exciting to watch" category.
