My first favorite fighter was Livingstone Bramble, i was a kid so that name just sounded BAD AZZ to me.
Ofcourse i remember watching the big wigs like SRL, Hagler, Hearns and so on. But Bramble made me a real fan of the sport. (ABC Wide World Of Sports)....Those were the days man.
He was'nt a super star, nor was he as good as the super stars, but he had heart.
With the crazy braids and that mean looking mug, he was bad azz to me at the time.
He went on to become champ, since then i was hooked.
Eric Lucas, in his fight versus Fabrice Tiozzo was the fight that attracted me to boxing.
He was a tough guy with limited skills but he didn't duck anybody.
Fought Glenn Cathley twice, Fabrice Tiozzo, Roy Jones Jr, Thobela, Sheika, Beyer (was robbed in that fight badly), Danny Green, Kessler and finished his career against Andrade.
Mike Tyson. I think this varies by generation. Personally seeing Mike on his way to the ring as people stood up to get a glance at him was cool. Like he was a monster about to go at it with his prey
Iron Mike back in the late 80's. Since then it's been the likes of Floyd Mayweather, ODLH, BHOP, Mosley, Pac, Calzaghe, and as of late..Bradley and Martinez. Tyson was what made me start watching boxing in the first place...dude was epic
