I grew up reading Bios about Jack Dempsey. It's hard to say how good he really was, certainly one of the best of his era. It must have been something to have been Heavyweight Champion of the World during the Roaring 20's in America.
So Dempsey is easily, my favorite old time boxer.
In more modern times my favorite has become George Foreman, he was a great fighter, and he's an even better human being. I can't think of a better role model then "Big George" for young black men to emulate, and he's been far more successful as a businessman then he ever was as a boxer.

Archie Moore vs. Yvonne Durell is worth watching. So is Rocky Graziano vs. SRR.
Hard for me to watch black n white fights otherwise tho.
