    Which of the current fighters have you followed for some time now?

    I have been a Mayweather fan from day one.

    Been a fan of Amir Khan since his Olympic days when he lost to Mario Kindelen in the final, and then beat him in the rematch before turning Pro.

    Became a Paul Williams fan after his fight against Sergio Rios back in 2006

    Became a Pacquiao fan after his first fight with Marco Antonio Barrera

    Became an Abraham fan just before his fight with Kingsley Ikeke

    Became a David Haye fan after watching him destroy Glen Kelly on Sky Sports

    Williams from the get go. I have some frineds in Cali who told they seen this giraffe looking dude beating the hell out of people.

    Pac: I like him for a while since the Oscar-Castillejo undercard.

    Mayweather since I was a kid. Been to 4 of his fights.

    Roy: Since I was a kid.

    Oscar: From his olympic days when I was a kid.

    Those are probably the 3 fighters Ive followed the longest. Oh Jermain Taylor was a fave of mine too.

      Ima fan of Amir Khan. I had heard of Amir after the Limond fight, I have been following him ever since. And he is my favorite fighter.

      Ima fan of David Haye. I watched the Haye-Maccarinelli fight live and Ive been following Haye ever since. I

      I'm a fan of Mayweather. The first Mayweather fight I had seen was against Hatton. I have been following him ever since and Ive watched some of his old fights as well.

      I'm a fan of Pacquiao. I have been following Pacquiao ever since Pacquiao/JMM II.

      I'm a fan of Abraham. The Taylor-Abraham was the first fight I have seen live of his.

      I'm a fan of Martinez. The Williams-Martinez fight was the first fight I had ever seen of Martinez.

              I've watched Khan since his first pro fight. Can't think of much else, since I had to catch up with everything when I got back into boxing in '08.

              I'd be lying if I said that I've been following anyone else from their early days - although I would've loved to have been able to do so.

                I don't tend to attach myself to specific boxers. I'll watch every fight possible, old and new.

                  mosley's the longest. i've been watching him for years. i vaguely remember the first dlh fight.

                  holyfield since the bite fight.

                  vitali since the ll fight

                  if he were somehow still around, tyson would be the longest. my dad was watching him when he was still with rooney. so i watched him too.

                  farther back than that, joe louis and joe frazier. my grandpa saw joe louis fight and my dad saw frazier fight in person. i've seen tapes of them long before i cared about boxing.

                  edit: mosley's the longest i've personally followed. the rest i watched with my dad. i watched the first oscar fight with my dad but after that i'd go out of my way to see him.
