[Trainer Monkey]

Ok Ill treat this as if we havent had this thread all ready
See,do you mean greatest,most of those lists have allready been done
But if you went favourite boxers,alot of that would be left to the subjective,some guys you like,just because you like watching them box,and even though you may have tape on a guy,its not the same as being around when they were at their prime.
My faves,in no particular order
Bernard Hopkins
Larry Holmes
Ray Boom Boom Mancini
Ali
Angel Manfreddy(I have no idea why on this one,I just liked watching him)
The young version of Bowe
Roberto Duran
Sugar Ray L
Tim Witherspoon(again it doesnt have to be logical,I just liked the guy)
Tommy Hearns(this last one was a toss up between him and Hagler)

Oddly enough,if I went all time faves to watch,Id toss Sonny Liston on there,
His fights absolutely leave me in stitches,the dirty stuff he gets away with in there is beyond the pale.
What can I say,Im from Philly,we're raised to appreciate an artfully done eye gouge.
Allways away from the refs line of sight,done quickly,efficient,etc
The casual fan may not like it,but stuff like thats part of the sport as well,sort of like Hopkins 5 quick shots to the thigh in a clinch

Hey I'm not just a boxing fan, I'm a fight fan
Thats why I love reading about Harry Greb

"Heres the center of the ring,now Im going to be here,and when you join me here,Im going to hit you.HARD"
