    personally im not going for Bhop but i do agree he is tedious too watch and his fight's with Taylor were boring zzz there were hardly any punches thrown in 24 round's of fighting

    id have to go for winky though this guy bores me too tears his style is so methodical and what makes it worse is his style is successfull so he serves up the same dross everytime he fights, dont get me wrong he is a talented fighter who desrves respect just like BHOP
    I look at Winky in the same way as I look at Hopkins, both are technically superb and they have had great careers but they very rarely risk it all for the sake of putting on a show for the public.

    Mayweather is similar and no one can dispute how great a fighter he is but boxing is primarily an entertainment sport.

          I'd watch any of those names listed as long as they were matched with a decent named opponent.

          But Ruiz, other than the Roy fight, I found it impossible to get excited for any of his fights.

            Floyd Mayweather - His fights at 140 were very exciting.
            Bernard Hopkins - His win over Trinidad was quite exciting.
            Ricky Hatton - I haven't seen much of him, not super exciting, but not terrible.
            Antonio Tarver - His loss to Jones and win over Johnson were both good.
            Winky Wright - His fight against Jermain Taylor was good, Candelo domination was good too.
            Pauli Malignaggi - He stood toe-to-toe with Cotto.
            Cory Spinks - Spinks sucks. He's my vote. Even Judah had to chase his ass down.
            Jermain Taylor - Taylor pressed the fight with Hopkins and Wright... he's not terrible.
            Antonio Margarito - Can anyone say that the guy who holds the compubox record for most punches in a match be not exciting? Absurd.

              Paul Mali. He is slow, white, boring. He would get crushed by a top black contender that is undefeated in his division.

                .
                He's still 1 and 1 with Zab.

                  Yeah... and? I just said Zab was chasing him down, and Zab is usually the boxer/mover.

                  Keep in mind how each fighter won their fight. Spinks coasted to a decision, and Judah knocked Spinks out.

                    Spinks vs. Taylor was A MILLION TIMES better than Floyd vs. Baldomir. You're just being a hater.

                      Cory looked extremely flat in the Zab rematch.
                      He just didn't look like himself at all. It was still pretty close until the knockout too.

                      I just thought it was kind of ****ed up how during the post-fight interview when they asked Don and Zab if they would give Cory a rematch (since Cory gave Zab 1) they both said "no way." I understand at that time everyone was coming back to Welterweight but Zab went on to fight Cosme Rivera and Baldy. He should have allowed the triology in all honesty.
