Past: Danny Little Red Lopez was always my favorite fighter when I was a kid-- loved that he always climbed off the deck to win (until he met l Sanchez). Also liked Jimmy Young, Termite Watkins, Randy Shields, Carlos Palomino and Pipino Cuevas, Howard Davis Jr, Matt Franklin/Saad Muhammad; Virgil Hill, Arturo Gatti and Angel Manfredy

Current: Kermit Cintron (a great kid with Philly-area connections, a heartwarming backstory and a fan friendly style/talent to boot), Steve Luevano (reminds me of Lopez in some ways) and Carlos Quinitana (quiet guy too often overlooked/underrated); John Murray
