    Felix Tito Trinidad

    He's willing to fight the best and the ones that other fighters avoid. A true warrior and nobody can doubt that. His power and stamina is incredible plus I like his kill or be killed type of mentality.

    Floyd Mayweather Jr.

    This man made me a believer. He is the best fighter in the world who can do anything in the ring. The defense is amazing to watch, the speed and accuracy is crazy and I think he is the most talented and skilled fighter in the world. I even think he is one of the most skillful fighters to ever step in the ring.

      roy jones jr- i was hooked when i seen his insane speed and his unorthodox style especially when he leads with his left hook. his reflexes and speed made him unhitable while he was landing at will.

        1) Julio Cesar Chavez - The man was a machine. You could almost see the frustration in his opponents face as he was just relentless in the constant pressure and workrate in his prime. Many times he doesnt get recognition of the skills. He was a true technician, seems like most times fighters only get called that if they fight on the outside no matter how much skill and technique they display while maintaining an offensive drive.

        2) Erik Morales - This guy is a mans man. He is arrogant enough to feel he can be in the ring and trade with anybody, yet he is happy to call himself a computer nerd. I'm a computer nerd myself so i guess that too helps him be my #2 fav fighter. He is a true warrior, he has great boxing skills he could box from the outside and pop his excelent jab all night long and win 12 round decisions but he prefers to win wars. He brings the kind of emotion to very few fighters are able to bring to boxing today. Also he goes from one tough fight to another to another to another all within reasonable amount of time. (usually 3 to a year). If anyone deserves an easy fight its definitely him, he's been consistant his success rate over high levels of opposition.

          Diego Corrales- he is a punching machine that lets his fists do the talking for him. He takes big fight after big fight and has shown enough heart for ten fighters...

          Zab Judah- he is a flashy and talented south paw who has a real "my way or the highway" style of going about things. I like the fact that he does not bend for anybody...

            Kostya Tszyu - He interviews so well, he is the most respectful boxer I have heard speak. This is a true hero and role model that kids can look up to and respect. In the ring, I started to love him because of the straight right, but what really hooked me was his body shots. I think body shots are a bit of a dying art and love watching Tszyu work the body.

            Vic Darchinian - Not sure if many have heard of this young up and comer, but he has one of the coolest styles I have seen - he literally slinks around the ring, stalking his opponent, and boom! This boy throws a bomb that puts people on the canvas full stop. I wish him all the best!

              Tito - His power and relentless come-forward style make him one of the most exciting fighters to watch. He's never ducked anyone and has consistently sought out and fought the best available fighters in his weight class. His loss to Bernard Hopkins is the only blemish of his career but losing to the best Middleweight in 20 years isn't that bad of a thing.

              Miguel Cotto - Not just because he's Puerto Rican, either. He's very young and, except for the Corley fight, shows incredible patience in the ring. He is a stalker, walking his opponent down and finishing with power shots both to the head and body. I love a good body attack and Cotto has one of the best left hooks to the body of any active fighter. Cotto's fighting style of keeping his chin in and cutting off the ring will make for some very exciting fights in the future. Besides what people think, I still say he has a very good chin. We'll see against his next opponent: Abdullaev.

                PBF/RJJ-it's a toss up between the two. both have atributes i admire. i love the way floyd does that shoulder roll and counters with lightening speed. of course no one has ever seen a fighter put BOTH his hands behind his back, slip-duck-counter...and KO his opponent in a title fight...

                BH-this guy is so savvy i can't even descirbe how good he is. he's not flashy but he has so many bags of tricks it's unreal. he maybe dirty at time but it works...note:watch how he clinches spins the opponent opposite the ref and hits the guy on the hip...then next time around he feints low (where the guy is sore from the hip shot) and leads with a right straight....damn beautiful.

                  Right now my top two favorites are:

                  Zab Judah- Hes fun too watch, great footwork and blazing hand speed
                  Floyd Mayweather Jr.- the best in the sport today based on skills, ****y: but backs it up

                    My # 1 is Arturo Gatti (big suprise there). The most excting fighter in boxing P4P. And soon to be the top man at 140.

                    Next it is tough, Its a two way tie w/ Paul Malignaggi and "Irish" John Duddy and Wayne Mccullough and Joe Mesi coming in a close 3rd.

                      Roy Jones, Jr. Lol, couldnt resist!

                      seriously though, this is a hard one
                      #1 Gatti, of course...other than being pleasing to the female eye (uh, before fight night that is!) he has the heart of a lion to make up for some skill he just wasnt born with, and no matter how much he's disrespected by other fighters, they all seem to want a peice of his ($) pie. Also, dont know many other fighters that will fight with broken hand (lead hand at that)

                      #2..this is where it gets tough....love Morales for the true warrior/champ he is and that 'never quit' attitude. JLC and Kostya Tszyu are close runners up. JLC has mad skills and doesnt get the credit he's due, and Kostya is a classy guy with enormous skill and power to boot!
