Most exciting boxer of all time

[res]

What? Ali was many things, but a great technical boxer he wasn't!

Ofcourse he was, "great technical boxer" does not necessarily mean "orthodox boxer".

Leonard
Roy Jones Junior
Mike Tyson
Ali
ODLH (his paycheks talk themselves )

I should say this is rather a matter of taste. Personally i think young Foreman was definetly fun to watch, and some may find the hugging and pushing of the early 1900s exciting...

[PLATE]

Believe it or not, I think Mike Tyson was the most exciting boxer ever. I was on the edge of my chair for every one of his matches.

Well Muhammad Ali was the most entertaining sports figure to have ever lived.

But for the most exciting boxer of all time, this probably differs with everyone, but i think most would say Iron Mike Tyson.

[Hawkins]

Tommy Hearns, Matthew Saad Muhammad, Nigel Benn, Diego Corrales, Charles Brewer, Arturo Gatti....there are many exciting fighters and the ones i named are just the ones from recent memory.

People watched Mike Tyson to see him knocking bitches out.
People watched Muhammad Ali to see him getting knocked out.

Who wouldn't say he wasn't. I'd have to pick Iron Mike. Mike just laid people out with such explosion.

Not saying the best, but for pure excitement I would pick out Nigel Benn, Gatti, Tommy Hearns and Joe Frazier. Put a gun to my head.....Nigel Benn

[lexelterrible]

For consistantly supplying the highest levels of both unbelievable drama and tremendous excitement in pretty much every single one of their fights, the "Schoolboy" Bobby Chacon & Matthew Saad Muhammad would be my top two choices for this category.

Arturo Who?

Thank you. Nice to see someone who knows about the sport.

Pacquiao is damn exciting

Mike Tyson
Thomas Hearns


It's sort of hard for me to list fighters not from my generation that were exciting since I never got to see them live. (I never even got to see Mike live or Hearns since I wasn't into boxing in the early 90's)
