I am kind of new and would like to get to know a little more about this boxing community so I would like to know who is your favotite boxer/boxers both current and past and maybe a little reason why. My current favorites include Erik Morrales, Oscar De La Hoya, Antonio Margarito, Pac, the Marquez Bros, B-Hop, Vitali, Cotto, and Shane Mosely. Just to name a few, I'm a big follower of the sport so I have a lot of favorites. Some of my favorites from the past include Salvador Sanchez, Sugar Ray Robinson, Marvin Hagler, Joe Louis, Rocky Marciano, Julio Cesar Chavez, Aaron Pryor, Ricardo Lopez, Genaro Hernandez, and Azumah Nelson. I'm not too big on the real old school fighters but I read and study as much as I can about them. As you can see I am more into the 80's, 90's and todays boxers. Well hope you guys enjoy this thread and hopefully not too much trash talk or race wars get started here, as this is my first thread.

All-Time: Evander Holyfield (it's getting very sad for Evander
)
Currently:Wladimir Klitschko (potential, but no chin. Tremendously polished boxing skills. Still, no chin )
I've always enjoyed watching Marco Antonio Barrera fight as well. I'd like to be able to box like him. -
Hilmer Kenty, one class act and one great guy........Rockin'

Yeah...he deserves one for the career he's put together. That was one of the greatest defensive plays (Tayshaun) that I've ever seen in my life in any sport. Anywho...at least Reggie beat the Knicks in his last game at the Garden right?
