The bravest fighter?

Erik Morales!!!!

Yeah, Joe Frazier of course! i saw the HBO documentary about "The Thrilla in Manilla" he just wanted to keep fighting no matter what!

i dont remember lennox lewis ducking ne1 apart from ruiz and byrd for obvious reasons

Bravery isnt facing people you are meant to, rather it is facing people you aren't. For instance JMM was brave for moving up in weight to fight Floyd and going to Indonesia to take on Chris John. Brave is Arthur Abraham carrying on in the first Miranda fight despite having a horribly broken jaw and the same can be said for Ali against Norton who broke his in the second but went the full 15 rounds

Joe Frazier would of died in the ring if he had to, he would of pushed himself that far to win, he also fought most his career with one good eye. Most fighters say they will fight to the death but no many actually back it up, Frazier was not far off that in a couple of fights.

Amir Khan hands down. LOL :rofl:

Carmen Basilio, that guy was willing to fight through anything.

Of course! Muhammad Ali, and Evander Holyfield. How could i forget the Real Deal? :tragedy:

Damn I cant believe I forgot to mention Muhammed Ali... I was going to say Duran too. I wish Duran would of had a pit stop at 140 and fight Aaron Pryor. That would of been an awesome fight.you do realize that pryor won the 140 belt AFTER duran beat leonard at 147, and had about 13 fights when duran left 135

i can think of many fighters who never ducked an opponent...Sugar Ray Robinson, Muhammad Ali, Evander Holyfield never ducked anybody too.......Roberto Duran might also be on the list if he didn't bitch out in the second fight with leonard Damn I cant believe I forgot to mention Muhammed Ali... I was going to say Duran too. I wish Duran would of had a pit stop at 140 and fight Aaron Pryor. That would of been an awesome fight.

I agree I also think a prime Vernon had a good chance of beating a prime Oscar. I also think Vernon would of beaten him last year... I know Vernon woulda broke em off sumthin last yr at JMW. I wish it woulda happened. And also add Mosley to this list, wit the exception of Pwill who he flat out said he ain't want it wit.

You right. I thought to add Forrest to the list, but left him off there cuz DLH lost to SSM and Trinidad at WW then moved up. He might have challenged him, but I don't specifically recall Vernon callin him out at tht time. They coulda conceivably fought last yr when he needed an opponent, and it woulda been way better than pickin on lil Pac, but he was huntin for a big fight. Shoulda been Marg since he'd just beaten Cotto. I do think Forrest had a good chance of beatin him prime 4 prime tho no doubt.

didnt a lot of people duck Forrest? One of my favourites Shane Mosley fought him though. And a lot of other big names. so i think he deserves a mention. But i hear he duckes Paul Williams? A lot of fighters were not eager to fight Forrest. It took him awhile to get to top. Until Shane gave him a shot. Shane also fought Winky who also a lot of fighters ducked... Shane is ducking P-Will but I give him somewhat of a pass cuz in his prime at his best he showed willingness to fight anybody. But, I always wondered why a fight between him and Stevie Johnston never happened at LW?

He also never faced Vernon Forrest. They was always around the same weightclass. And, they knew each other from there time in the olympics together You right.

I feel like all im posting is these kinds of threads, but what the heck :lol1: who do you think is the bravest? that has faced the best, that didnt duck anyone? :D Felix Tito Trinidad... Pernell Whitaker, Evander Holyfield, Alexis Arguello.

Jermain Taylor ducked no one, and met his demise cuz of it. Same for Fernando Vargas. Gatti went all out every time. DLH, except Winky to a degree and Marg last yr, faced everybody.
