Almost all of our guys have come from nowhere with nothing, but who's achievements have you found the most moving and inspirational?

I have a few.

B-Hop/ jail then to where he is

De La Hoya/ After his mom died, i respect that it made him even hungrier in the ring.

Miranda / eating road kill, to coming where he is today

Mundine / took up boxing at 25. Walked out on a $500 000 a season contract with professional rugby league.

for anyone to say a fighter other than pacquiao is just ridiculous.

You have to put Calzaghe in that league.

After being hunted down by Lord Voldermort and his parents being killed. Then going to hog***** lol.

True, he had to battle Dementors and ****. Pacquiao was homeless as a kid.

I had to pick pacquiao, 3rd world country, no education at all, he ran away from home like 11 years old, his family was dirty poor, became a name fighter in his country,went to the usa, rejected by the big name trainers like steward, and rejected by the big name promoters like Top Rank, freddie roach took him in after only 2 weeks training he was to be a walk over last minute filler for the champion ledwaba...and demolished him....then larry merchant says "I dont know who he is I have never heard of him but I wanna see him again" something like that...dude is an ICON in his country and went from eating scraps to making Millions in the united states and asia.

if that doesn't give you hope I dont know what will.

Then I would go wit hopkins turning his life around.

then Oscar delahoya coming up from East Los to win the gold and become the biggest draw in boxing.

then Carlos baldomir


Kelly Pavlik shouldnt be up there just yet yes he did win the title in dramatic fashion but his story is still unfolding its a bit soon he is just a young kid 25 years old. I just feel he hasnt reached the star status he should be at because they aint pushing him right which is a shame.

Kassim Ouma

Ouma story is inspirational but his success has been less then stellar in boxing..

I'm most inspired by Bernard's(me being black) but as far who had it the worse, I'd have to go with Pacquiao or Baldomir.
