I'm from West London. I enjoy boxing but I don't go very often, I sparred a lot when I was younger, but only about 10 rounds in the past few months since re-joining.
My favourite fighter ever was Naseem Hamed, but the way he wasted his talent and what he did outside of the ring make it hard for me to see him the same way now. If I had to name a favourite fighter it'd probably be Calzaghe, although I didn't like the way he fought against B-Hop and think he should've done more to secure big fights earlier on in his career(not trying to start a debate on it, just giving my opinion).
Amir Khan may well be my favourite fighter this time next year, the idea of him fighting Campbell, Juan Diaz, Katsidis, Casamayor, Guzman, Marquez or Pacquiao...wow. The idea of him fighting more smaller, past their prime super featherweights...depressing.
I enjoy watching come forward fighters with great chins like Margarito, Hagler and Andrade, as well as power punchers with vulnerabilities such as Cotto and Pavlik.
