Your three favourite fighters of all time?

[Tam Seddon]

Im intrested to see what everybodys favourite fighters are...

for me its...

1) Carl Froch- sheer exciment from start to finish he brings the pace and I love seeing him run his mouth and backing it up in the ring. His knockouts are brutal and hes going places this year.

2) Ricky Hatton- I've watched him for such a long time now and he never fails to impress me. I remember wanting to see him beat KT and him doing it was something else. His body punching and character is what I love seeing. His left hooks to the body are so sweet to watch and I rate him as one of the best in the world as this momment in time.

3) Mike Tyson- He was the reason I got into boxing, his knockouts and boxing abilities for me are outstanding. I remember watching some of his fights when i was younger and thinking omg I want to be a boxer. I think He will be in most peoples list, hes just a class character.

Marco Antonio Barrera - Always be his biggest fan . Amazing fighter . He could do everthing . Also starred in teh best fight ever but what made me a follower was his attitude. He was like nobody else. He really had a no s**t way of thinking and the way he'd hit people at press conferences and treat guys in the ring fiercely just made hima great charcter to watch.

Lennox Lewis - Beat every guy he ever fought. Made a career out of beating the best and he usually did it with ease. Scored some great K.O's and again his arrogance was actually a good thing cuz it made it entertaining . Great Jab , great power and could have made it in any era.

Evander Holyfield - It was tough to pick a 3rd place but at the mo id say evander for his legedary career . As a cruiserweight he was unrivaled. Crazy talent ! But what made him so likeable was his heart and ability to prove the doubters wrong . Alaways in good fights and never took the easy route. Great man !

Smokin Joe - Just for putting his Ali on his ass in super sweet fashion.Best left hook ive ever seen.

Oscar De La Hoya - Only in the last year ive made the effort to watch all his career but the Golden Boy is my favorite fighter.So brutal.

Sonny Liston - Liston was just a bad motherfucka. Sweetest Jab.

[DaxxKahn]

Thomas Hearns- Champion in the WW/SWW/MW/LHW divisions when every division was pretty much stacked...He was fast as a cat and hit like a bull....He had heart and with his suspect chin it could be over any second for him...With is power every shot he threw he could end the fight for his opp....Tommy was also a class act outside the ring

Lennox Lewis- He hit like a freight train...He could box with the best in history, He was confident boardering on arrogant at times but always showed the world why he could afford that luxery....In his only 2 losses he did what a champion should and rematched taking a win with twice the style in which he lost

After that I really don't have a particular third....I am big fans of,

Duran, Pryor, Arguello, Hagler, Tyson, Holyfield, Jones and a few more...all on an equal level

[Pugilistic]

i only truly have one favourite fighter and that is Bernard Hopkins.

[Baby-Faced-Assassin]

ODLH
MAB
Cotto

[Shamrock]

Ali - Fought and beat the best. Every time they wrote him off this beautiful athlete proved them wrong. Like him or loath him 99.9% of people rate him as either the best or second best heavyweight ever. Add to that the way he shaped a nation and you have an idyllic figure that transcended his sport.

Ray Robinson - If there's a God and he created the perfect fighter then it's Ray. The guy was simply the best P4P fighter ever. If I need to say any more... then you need to be on a different type of forum....

Ray Leonard/Roberto Duran/Marvin Hagler/Tommy Hearns - I can't split these guys up - the fights they gave us against each other are a part of my life and will stay with me forever.

Honourable mentions - Lennox brought some pride back to heavy's in Britian. Naz - for the wild ride and then ultimatley the crash and burn. Nigel Benn - balls of steel - watch the McClellan fight, despite the tragic end, few fighters can take that kind of pain and punishment and come back. Nigel was virtually unconcious outside the ring in the first round. Awesome.

Special mention - Peter Buckley and fighters like him... with out the nearly and never was you'd never know the great !!!

[Spicoli]

Nigel Benn

Evander Holyfield

Michael Carbajal..........Azumah Nelson whoops thats 4

[Kid blackie]

Its hard to just put 3 fav fighters of all time but it would go something like
this
MUHAMMAD ALI, for me ali had it all i think in his prime he would have beaten any heavyweight from any era (yes even tyson for all you tyson fans) the only one that might have given him trouble would have been jack johnson but ali usually finds away to win
even tho i think he was lucky on some of his fights towards the end ie jimmy young fight but the garbage fighter would give anyone trouble,WHAT A SPOILER LOL.

SUGAR RAY LEONARD, for me because i just think he would have beaten alot of fighters before and after him the two fighters today that i think leonard could of beaten and i also think are the two best around today
would be mayweather jr and cotto, i think his great to watch also just a shame he never fought aaron pryor the greatest two fisted fighter of all time and i mean all time.

EVANDER HOLYFIELD, i like holyfield the best at cruiserweight the qawi fight for me is one of the best in boxing history he always comes to fight
i think as a heavyweight he wasnt as good or after 1990 even tho he has one the title 4 times.the bowe fights for me were his best at heavy i also
like the michael dokes fight his second as a heavyweight

other fav fighters would be
