    Ali, then Duran, then Hearns.. At one time it was Donald Curry then it went back to Hearns again but it was the Ali-Frazier/Foreman/Norton fights that got me into boxing, so Ali has to be my first favourite.

        For me, it was 3 fighters in particular: Harold Brazier, Pernell Whitaker, and watching old fights of Ali.

        I'm 30, btw.

                    The first guys I was really aware of were Bruno and Tyson in the eighties; followed by Nigel Benn, Chris Eubank and Michael Watson soon after. I liked all of those guys, but I never actually LOVED a fighter until I saw Erik Morales for the first time.

                      Tyson for me, I remember the build up for the second Bruno fight and how the British Press were building up Tyson. As a destroyer an impossible task for Bruno, I was only 7 but I remember how much in awe I was of this apparently unstoppable man.
