      My all-time favorite is Rocky Marciano. One of the toughest boxers that ever lived and considered to be one of the best, if not THE best conditioned boxers of all time. He wasn't the biggest, heaviest or quickest, didn't have the best technical style so he knew he had to outwork his opponents, both in the ring and in training for his fights. My other favorites include:

      Joe Louis
      Muhammad Ali
      Sugar Ray Leonard
      Sugar Ray Robinson
      Thomas Hearns
      Evander Holyfield
      Miguel Cotto
      Felix Trinidad
      Oscar De La Hoya
      Yuriorkis Gamboa
      Floyd Mayweather
      Sugar Shane Mosley
      Marvin Hagler
      Arturo Gatti
      Roy Jones
      Bernard Hopkins
      Joe Calzaghe
      David Tua
      Nigel Benn
      George Foreman
      Joe Frazier
      Erislandy Lara
      Edwin Valero
      Lary Holmes
      Jack Dempsey
      Jack Johnson
      Lou Ambers
      Tony Canzoneri
      Willie Pep
      Sandy Saddler
      Vitali Klitschko
      Wladimir Klitschko
      Lennox Lewis
      Sonny Liston
      Ray Mancini
      Mike McCallum
      Andre Berto
      Manny Pacquiao
      Aaron Pryor
      Alexis Arguello
      Henry Armstrong
      Marco Antonio Barrera
      Julio Cesar Chavez
      Mike Tyson
      Andre Ward
      Pernell Whittaker
      Ronald "Winky" Wright
      Paul Williams

      So, as you can see, I mostly lean towards the big punchers that knock out their opponents in about 5 rounds or less (Foreman, Liston, Tyson, Hearns), some boxer/punchers that throw a lot of punches and dominate on the scorecards (Leonard, Williams, Hopkins) and the warriors that usually score late round knockouts (Chavez, Cotto, Gatti, etc.)

      I just wanted to add I'm new here, as you can tell from my post count and really enjoying reading the posts on the boxing and MMA boards here.
