    Personally here i fighters i like to watch. With fighters and with sports teams i really cant root for ones i dont have some sort of connection to. Therefore the following fighters, arent my favorites using the definition that id be upset if they lost. But a more accurate definition is that they are fighters i look forwards to watching each time out.

    David Haye, Tomasz Adamek, Chad Dawson, Glen Johnson, Tavoris Cloud, Kelly Pavlik, James Kirkland, Ricky Hatton, Devon Alexander, and Michael Katsidis,
    Oh I see what your getting at here too....since your a Mexican that only picked black and white fighters no Puerto Ricans....I guess Ill be the Puerto Rican that picks only European and Asians no Mexicans....lol

        LMAO

        As a Mexican, I really find it funny when a Mexican or Puerto Rican, who participates in the nationalistic banter, tries to "rise above" all of it and give fighters of other races their props.

        How about this, how about you just acknowledge skill and don't get all hyperbolic in your criticism of other fighters? Then you don't have to worry about race because there are fighters of all races who are *******s, overrated, cheat, have weird styles, etc.

                Race=Hispanic. Mexican and Puerto rican=Nationalities.

                I picked fighters who are different races than me.

                      Thank you mate

                      Sin City and CHAMPPR were like Hispanic is not a race. They said Mexican was a race.
