Your top 5?

[imp]

I take it you mean top five favourites judging by that list.

1. In-Jin Chi
2. Nigel Benn
3. Micky Ward
4. Dennis Andries
5. Wayne McCullough

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.

(Leonard is my favourite ever fighter)

1. Trinidad
2. Wilfredo Gomez
3. Wilfredo Benitez

No Cotto?!?!? Looking at your top three I figured he would be in there somewhere.

If he upsets Canelo I may have to sneak him in there.

It was hard for me to leave out JCC, Norris and McCallum off of my list. The 80s/90s were such great decades for boxing. Other than GGG and Crawford, what "newer" pro fighters have that skill and toughness combination? As solid as Danny Garcia is, would he have even picked up a title in those days?

I was thinking the same am I just an old git or were the fighters better back then?

I was considering putting in Cotto but could not think of an active fighter that I am a fan of.

Walters and Crawford are ones I like so far.

I think the plethora of trinkets has been there for the picking for the longest and Garcia and 100 others might get in. Its more an indictment on the availability and bs with belts than level of competition in respected division for a lot of guys today. Then again if the current Garcia jumped to welter say against Ike Quartey I'd fear for his life.

Holyfield
Hopkins
Carbajal
Benn

Five is not enough
