Favourite and Least Favourite American fighters and why....

[Pugilistic]

Favourite Fighters :

Bernard Hopkins - he's one of the smartest technicians i've ever seen and has fought some quality fighters in his career......and made them look silly. I'm surprised so many people dislike him. He fights dirty but he's not the only one. One poster on here (JT) has Holyfield who is known for using his head as a favourite and dislikes Hopkins for the same reason . Come on JT, give Hopkins a break.

Timothy Bradley - The guy has very good skills, he can do it all imo. He's wants to fight the best and has proven himself against very solid opposition so far.

Evander Holyfield - A true warrior, The guy had great heart and skills to back it up. A fighter i have aton of respect for. I wish he would call it a day though.

Muhammad Ali - Do i really need to explain ? at a young age had amazing reflexes and athelticism, Once age caught up with him, he adapted his style so he could still compete with top fighters and beat them. An absolute legend.

Chad Dawson - The guy has tons of talent and is a really nice guy. It's unforenate for him because the division he is in lacks names and he isn't popular enough to get big fights (Hopkins, Calzaghe,etc).

Shane Mosley - Sugar is a beast, fights the best, has incredible speed and power and underated boxing ability imo.

Least Favourite Fighters:

Paulie Malignaggi - The guy has good boxing skills but i hate his big mouth. He always talks about getting robbed against Diaz in the first fight when it's not like some dodgy decision haven't gone his way before (2nd Ndou fight, Ngoudjo).

Jesse Brinkley - The guy is a asshole. I remember watching him on the contender against Robin Reid and Reid beat him clearly. When Reid went to give a hug and show some respect, He turned his back on him and was really immature about getting beat. I don't like that. Fighters should show other fighters respect.

Peter Mafredo Jr - For obvious reasons, He sucks.

Andre Berto - I quite like Berto, it's clear he has skills but his title defenses are a joke. He's only fought one top WELTERWEIGHT contender during his reign and it's a fight he argueably lost. His other defenses are against natural Junior welterweights who were too small and had no power (Forbes and could possibly be Paulie this year) or too limited (Urango) to compete with him. Hopefully he steps up and fights some real welterweights this year.

I can't think of anyone more at the moment. I will add them once i remember.
