What fight or fighter got you hooked on Boxing?

Pernell sweet pea Whitaker

Lucjan Trela, a Polish HW amateur.

No particular fight. I just started watching HBO and Showtime boxing and became a fan.

Roberto Duran vs. Ray Leonard I. Duran fan ever since.

Whitaker, Tyson, RJJ, Toney

The first fight of my memory that I watched live on TV, was Tyson V Bruno.. The fight that got me interested in boxing was Ben V Eubank

Tyson, De La Hoya, Pac, Floyd

Morales vs Barerra. I liked boxing prior to but this fight changed my entire perspective of the sport.

My dad and his brothers bought all the Tyson PPV’s when I was in elementary school / high school. On my own, it was Barrera - Morales, so much that I named my first boy Marco Antonio.Its a shame Cus died so early in Tysons career.From what I read it all spiralled out of control once Cus died and Don King got hold him. Hence did'nt give him the discipline Cus did.Though disappointed to read Cus used underhand tactics to gain an advantage with Tyson when he fought.

Howard Davis Jr visiting my father in 82 got me curious. Lighting Lonnie Smith got me very interested in watching. Roy Jones Jr. made me an addict.

Duran and Ali

Ive always had a interest in boxing right from young as Iam sure most have on here eg who was the toughest etc at school. For me though since starting developing a serious interest in boxing within the last 2 years and it being my favourite sport now it has to be Sugar Ray Robinson the greatest pound for pound fighter ever.I absolutely love watching documentarys and old fight footage of him.

For me it was Calzaghe, his fight with Eubank for the vacant title was like something from a Rocky movie. Plus he was able to reinvent his technique to better cope with his hands constantly breaking. The crowning glory was the Lacy fight. Almost everyone thought he was a shot fighter selling his belt to the next big thing, but he absolutely schooled him for 12 rounds instead.

Sugar Ray Leonard!!! And it's all my dad's fault lol.

My avatar says it all.

Loved watching Gatti. Gatti Ward 1 Im so blessed to have seen that fight in my time.

I grew up watching Tyson start his career with my Dad and developed from there I've never had what you would call a favorite fighter I've really enjoyed watching several fighters come and go since then and still dont have a clear favorite just various ones for various reasons and skill sets.
