Top 15 Favorite fighters of all time ( NOT BEST JUST FAV)

No faves...but those I’d definitely watch: 1. Tyson 2. Younger Ali 3. Younger Foreman 4. Peek Roy Jones 5. Pacquiao 6. Duran 7. Hearns 8. Matthysse 9. Golovkin 10.Sugar Ray Robinson Rest, I may...

Favorite instead of Best allows us to pick people who we appreciate outside the ring... I'm not going to do all 15 but a few are. Emanuel Augustus (most clever and fluid combination puncher ever... it is sad that he wasted so much talent acting like a fool in the ring) Arturo Gatti Charlie Zelenoff (for providing me so much Troll material) Roger Mayweather (for giving me a reason never to use drugs, no matter how tough life gets... especially crack)

Ali, Robinson, Tyson, Jones, Hearns, Leonard, Toney, Hopkins, Mayweather, Nunn, Morales, Ricardo Lopez, Arguello, Pacquiao, Whitaker.

Boy. No Hearns, no Leonard, no Ali, no Foreman. Never a big fan of Ali, my mother/father where big fans of his while I enjoyed Frazier... People claim the stuff that comes out of Mayweathers mouth is offensive; most of those people never listened much to Ali... Hearns and Leanord would be up around 16 & 17 but don't get me wrong both are all time greats but never was a huge fan... Foreman, well dude had dynamite in his hands, but never was a huge fan of his!

Ray Leonard 13. Ali 14. Ray Robinson 15. Dariusz Michalczewski I like how "Ali" is just a single name (like "Elvis") in the midst of the list. Everyone else first & last names. That says something. :cool:

In no particular order it is: 1) Marvin Hagler 2) Tommy Hearns 3) Winky Wright 4) Miguel Cotto 5) Roy Jones 6) Pac 7) Rocky Marciano 8) M.A. Barrera 9) Evander Holyfield 10) David Tua 11) B-Hop 12) Andre Ward 13) Muhammad Ali 14) Joe Frazier 15) Floyd Mayweatehr Jr I'm responding for two reasons: 1) Unlike many, you understand the distinction between "best" and "favorite". 2) My #1 all-time favorite you at least have very high at #2 -- the great Thomas "Hit-Man" Hearns. Hearns is definitely my favorite of The Four Kings. Was he the "best"? The vast majority of boxing folks would say no (though I think a case can be made for any of the four, even Hearns.) I'm not going to compile my own "Top 15", but those from your list that I know would be on there are: Hearns, Hagler, Pacquiao, Hopkins, and Ali. Mayweather probably would as well, but I'd want to think a spell first. Foreman definitely would be, as well as Ray Leonard and Aaron Pryor.
