Most exciting boxer of all time

[fabulous]

Watch Ali against Young or even Lyle to see damn boring fight. Ali needed others to create agression. Put two Ali's together and you get boring boxing contest.
Big part from Ali's excitement and greatness lays outside the ring.

Exciting fighters? All from fabulous four: Hearns, Leonard, Duran, Hagler.

KO artists are exciting fighters, Tyson and Jackson. Watching John Mugabi before Hagler fight was pretty exciting, only that fights were so short.

Powerpunches is what createst excitement. Nobody rather wants to see a jab than a powerfull left hook.
Therefor Tyson

I always like the "Killed or be Killed" of Jack Dempsey or the "Never Quit" of Fraizer and Marciano type of styles to the sport.

Dempsey was my favorite of all time, I have his autograph on a popcorn bag my grandpa had when he saw him refereeing at a wrestling match. Tyson was the most anticipated fighter of the recent time though, I think when i was younger people watched Ali hoping he would get knocked out because of his ****iness, but that guy had the best chin of all time.....

[Dempsey1238]

Dont think Ali had the best chin,

Chavlo was NEVER drop, even vs Fraizer and Foreman,
Ross was never knockout in over 80 or so fights.
Lamotta face the big punchers of the middleweights, and was never drop when WELL pass his best.

Jim Jeffies of couse was never drop until Jack Johnson.
Might as well add in Joe Grim, he may have LOST evey fight he had, but a guy in the middleweight range, going the distant with Jack Johnson, and other heavyweights, has to count for something to regards to chin. Sad to say, he never won a fight, but was knockout when well PAST his prime(Well past his prime I guess??)

Gans, also had a good chin, the McGoven fight was a fix. And he was dieing when he was knockout for real.

Fullmer, outside of the Robinson rematch, was never knockout.
And that was called the PERFECT punch.
Micky Walker, a Middleweight going 8 rounds with puncher Max Schmling, who was a heavyweight. And Schmling did not knockout Walker thought. His conor stop the fight. Walker may have been killed, the guy had heart.

this is off top of my hand.

You brought up some great fighters, but the more you think about it, Ali was hit a lot for a guy that was so unhittable. Even in his early days he got hit a lot, I am not sure if he had the best chin ever but I think people should watch a lot of his fights and you would be surprised how many times he got hit. After his come back from suspension he was hit in fights against slow moving opponents(Norton), I still say he was very beatable....

in his prime he was hit less than any other fighter in history, period!

what r u talking aobut man

beating great fighters makes u exciting cuz n e body can beat up bumms but ali made guys look like bumms when they was beating every body else!

man i seen dempsey and he is BORING except his fight with willard! his other fight was punch hold miss hold!

tyson was good too but not like ali. tyson kos bumms and looks good but holyfeild and douglass beat him to death and hes nothing for the rest of his carrer!

watch alis 6 hit combos and folley fell face first to the mat. he made liston quit after liston missed him for 6 rounds when he wass blind. he hit c williams so many times he was trying to walk to the wrong corner lol

i thik ali is the most exciting ever but every body has there favorites i see.
