    Yes. Top 5 boxers.

    Your number 1 choice...why is he so special for you?

    Well I wouldn't really say he's "special" to me, I could also pick a different five, but looking at my list, it would strongly suggest that I like hard-as-nails, mental tear-up merchants. Interesting.

    I was actually thinking about my top 5 today I'll post my picks soon but just wanted to say i don't agree with most top 5/10 all times list just because a lot of these great boxers ended up fighting too long past there prime and took some bad beatings to shit opposition. I really believe if you decide to fight on past your prime you need to take the good with the bad. For example Roy Jones was one of the best in his prime but ended up shit cause he went on too long, I personally count all fighters wins loses prime or not and for that reason fighters like Roy Jones would never make any of my lists for that reason.

    When Manny is fighting they will all come out in force.

    If we are taking active fighters, Manny is definitely on my list, along with Cotto, GGG, Floyd and Crawford. Special fighters.

    Hagler Vs Hearns was the first fight I saw. Made me a fan for life and I can vividly remember being terrified by the way they were staring at each other. It's why I hold it against Floyd for not closing the show or pressing during his fight vs Manny. That was an opportunity to save the sport, repay the sport/fans, and he made it a track meet. Turned off so many potential fans for the future. Hope his next ppv suffers and he is marginalized for it.

    It's incredible what a loss or two will do to a fighter's stock.
