Marvin Hagler. He is the embodiment of what a fighter and champion should be. He was a complete fighter, able to fight inside and out, southpaw or orthodox, box or brawl, has a granite chin and could stop you with one shot. My favorite aspect, however, was his fighters mentality and mean streak. Marvin craved competition and he didn't want there to be any doubt, he wanted to crush the other guy for daring to step in the ring with him. I love that. He was all fighter. His quote said it all: "If they cut my bald head open they will find a boxing glove". I also love the fact that he wasn't the most naturally gifted fighter but he overcame a talent gap with toughness and work ethic.
