    The first 2 names that immediately came to mind were Duran and Tyson. Tyson took the sport to a whole new level during his prime. People would dish out thousands just to see how fast he can KO his opponent. He had the fans mezmerized. I can remember being around 7-8yrs old, and being amongst my family while everyone gathered in front of the tv to watch Tyson fight.

    I was on vacation in Miami during his fight with Lennox. The scene was hectic as everyone was looking for a place to catch the fight. I found this one secluded Irish bar/restaurant, and got myself a table right in front of the bigscreen. I had people offering to by me food and drinks just so they can join me at the table.

    I dont care what anyone says, nobody made the fans more hype, than a prime Mike Tyson.
    good post.....

                  I've heard the Zale-Graziano trilogy is the best ever... They might be good candidates, especially because defense was not nearly as used back then as it is today.
