I had already posted here a while back, but I need to add another fighter to the list: Manny Pacquiao.
Aside from being an exciting and humble champion, Manny did two things that gave him instant favoritism in MY book:
1. He derailed DLH's "legacy-cementing" plans in brutal, humiliating fashion. Loved every minute of it.
2. Left no doubt as to the ridiculousness of Hatton's claim to be fighting for p4p # 1 status. Just how laughable that was must have become clear to him as he was staring up at the ceiling.
So... some of Pac's obnoxious fans aside, Manny still makes my new list of favorite fighters of all time.

It's hard to just pick 3, but here we go. Carlos Monzon Muhammed Ali, and Roberto Duran.
1 Ali - enough said
2 Nigel Benn - the first fighter I ever really got behind who fought in 'my era'
3 Lennox Lewis - first fighter I followed overseas to support
just outside - Arturo Gatti (gave his all every time) and Frank Bruno (we all loved him despite his crapness)
Don't bully fat kids - they've got enough on their plate
Hagler
Benn
Lewis
Old school
Ray Robinson
Muhammad Ali
Joe Louis
New School
James Toney
Floyd Mayweather
Roy Jones
I'm surprised more UK fight fans don't mention Jimmy Wilde; maybe cause' there aren't a whole lot of his fights to watch. Gotta be one of the greatest flyweights ever; and daresay the greatest fighter from the UK Empire
Old school right here
