    guess it's the ones i like to watch being interviewed and who make me laugh (not necessarily laughing with them but laughing AT them)

    so haven't got ten but in no particular order......

    Ali
    Foreman
    Naz (how he believed his own hype)
    Audley (love it how 'next year' is always going to be his year !)
    Frank Bruno (he was crap but we loved him )
    Don't bully fat kids - they've got enough on their plate

    It's hard to pick ten that stand out on the plus side because of their personalities, there's lots of people in the business I like, it's easier to pick 10 who stand out on the down side, but here goes, in no particuilar order...

    Alexis Arguello - A true gentleman, personified the word respect.
    George Foreman - Don't know that he had a personality back in the '70s, but late in his career, and as an announcer, he's hard not to like.
    Bernard Hopkins - Hard to find a reason why, I just like him. Kinda like cheering for the bad guy.
    Marvin Hagler - As much as anyone, he had the heart of a champion.
    Lennox Lewis - for his Canadian roots.
    Howard Cosell - Back then, a pompous ass. Now? Pure nostalgia.
    Muhammed Ali - A great interview, funny guy, Did a lot to help out the less fortunate.
    George Chuvalo - Paid some horrendous dues post boxing, but always held his head high and tried to remain positive.


    can't really think of anyone else. I will give an honorable mention to Antonio Tarver. He'll always be one of my heroes, for his slap down of the hot dog they called RJJ.
