    De La Hoya is an accesable face for boxing

    Pavlik is like the working class hero

    Mayweather is the superstar that has the big mouth he is like an inverted Ali big mouth can back it up but is way more OTT and gets to the point where people dislike him. Where Im from if i ask people my age to name boxers the first name they will say is Mayweather

      Ricky Hatton no contest. The guy has more personality and charisma than anyone we've had in years. It doesn't matter if people like him individually. He takes over situations on the strength of his words and his delivery. It wouldn't be fair or realistic to pick anyone else.

          Wladimir Klitschko, except we don't see enough of him. Hopefully he'll be back on Conan O'Brien sometime soon.

                Do you mean likeable as people? Hmm, I dunno. I like Roy Jones, Shane Mosely, I think Wlad seems really nice. I think Joe Calzaghe seems like a pretty OK guy.

                The more obnoxious ones: I like Floyd (I suspect he's nicer than he lets on) and I like Zab for some reason, even though he's quite brattish as well. I like Paulie M too.

                    i quite lik david haye hes abit brash sometimes but thats comes from being supremely confident in his abilities, calzaghe is another who is pretty confident but he displays that more in the build up to fights and in the ring.

                    hatton seems like a top lad and has a great personality.

                    mayweather is a it obnoxious - you could say hes trying to be a bit like ali, but ali always backed his words up. besides he wasn't spiteful or annoying it was interesting listening to ali talk before fights hed come out with lyrics and rhymes that no-one does these days.
