What are y'all top favorite? (pick and choose which categories y'all want to do, and it can be a top ten or top five) - Favorite Current Fighters - Favorite All Time Fighters - Favorite Fights - Fights That Didnt Happen​​ Nelo Usyk Teo Tank Wilder (comedy relief :lol1: ) Hagler PBF DLH Holy Cotto SSM (I don't consider wipe outs to be good fights) - Chico vs JLC 1 GFOAT !!!!!! If it were a movie, it would have swept the Oscars SRL vs Hearns (even better than Hagler vs Hearns) Talk about role reversal - The boxer became the puncher and vice versa MAB vs Erik trilogy Nuff said ! Holy vs Bowe trilogy Especially the Fan Man fight Sergio vs Williams 1 Pure pugilistic enjoyment :boxing: Nelo vs GGG 1-2 Competitive but not as close as people (haters) make them out to be JMM vs Pac 1 Down 3x in the 1st rd ?!?!? No problem LFG !!!! Gatti vs Ward 1 A glorified club fighter vs an actual club fighter Of course it was action packed. I'm sure I'll be back and add some

Current - Bam Rodriguez, Monster Inoue All Time - Roberto Duran, Mike Tyson Favorite Fights 1. Roberto Duran vs Sugar Ray Leonard 1 2. Julio Cesar Chavez Sr. vs Meldrick Taylor 3. Roberto Duran vs Iran Barkley 4. Roberto Duran vs Davey Moore 5. Salvador Sanchez vs Wilfredo Gomez Honorable mention - Felix Trinidad vs Fernando Vargas Fights that didn't happen - Too many to list but my number 1 missed fight is Alexis Arguello vs Salvador Sanchez.

This warms my heart. I was a big "AC Express" fan because I grew up in South Jersey and always supported the local fighters. I remember thinking he had a puncher's chance against Tyson and was heartbroken when he was blown out in a round. Same night Tupac was killed too... Seldon was my favorite heavyweight at the time, I too thought he had an excellent chance of beating Tyson also, he was agile, fast, powerful and that jab was something else He beat down Joe Hipp with just that beautiful jab But just like the bowe fight, he was mentally beat before the first punch was ever thrown vs Tyson If he had the mentality of Holyfield with his physical gifts he would be an all time great imho I remember Bobby Chez commenting and saying “if I was built like Seldon I would be afraid of nothing and nobody” lol

I don't necessarily think all pressure fighters are maulers not doing think all maulers are pressure fighters. To be honest, i would argue Lomachenko is a pressure fighter of sorts. He uses footwork and angles to create mental and physical pressure.. I like all kinds of fighters but I like fighters who bring violence and excitement. That's why I chose the term maulers when I wrote that post. This thread is a fun one and I wasn't thinking too hard when I typed. so a buff guy like Beterbiev would be a power pressure MAULER?! while ggg with his incredibly clean technique is not

what makes a pressure fighter into a MAULER?! I don't necessarily think all pressure fighters are maulers not doing think all maulers are pressure fighters.

Current: Derek Chisora, Naoya Inoue Former: Arturo Gatti, Angel Manfred, Oba Carr, Livingstone Bramble Fight: Barrios/Freitas, Oullette/Hilton, Gatti/Ward, De La Hoya/Vargas While I appreciate skilled boxing, I tend to prefer maulers. For fights, I like where there is genuine bad blood or some regional rivalry. Barrios/Freitas was Brazil vs Argentina, Oullette vs Hilton was a Canadian showdown, Oscar and Feroz was bad blood and Gatti/Ward were just pure violence.what makes a pressure fighter into a MAULER?!

All time- Roy Jones jr, Marc “Too Sharp” Johnson, Evander Holyfield, Sugar Ray Leonard, Orlando Canizales and Bruce Seldon (when Bruce had his mind together he was a talented heavyweight) Current- Boots and Bam I have been watching boxing for over 50 years so I have too many favorite fights to list or remember This warms my heart.

Chavez vs Rosario was also another good one. Tho it was more of a one sided beatdown Good call, I was only about 10 or 11 when that one went down but I remember reading about it in the old boxing magazines I would buy. ​​​​​​Chavez vs Rosario was one of those great PR vs Mexico matchups that seemed to have legitimate bad blood. Those types of fights often seem to generate a little extra violence and tension.
