    Wlad Klitschko is a must watch fighter for me. I don't think I've missed watching any of his fights live for the past 5 years....

          in no particular order:

          Chad Dawson
          Timothy Bradley
          Wlad
          Ward- (say what you want the guy continues to win with that style, he is also a technical fighter, you can tell him and his team really do their homework on their opponents and they attack that weakness the entire fight)

          Mayweather- (casual boxing fans won't appreciate him but true boxing fans and/or guys who box themselves can use Mayweather's videos to learn A LOT from him, Mayweather is a trainers DREAM he is very technically sound, the last of a dying breed)

          Sergio Martinez- (love slick fighters who can also mix it up and out-box you)
          Manny- (Pacman is very exciting to watch no one can deny that)
          Berto- (Got some of the best uppercuts in boxing today)
          Cotto- (true Warrior win or lose)

          Dirrell- (very exciting young fight IMO, he has some amazing skills for a young fighter, went into Froch's back yard and basically embarrassed and outperformed him, then he gave Abraham the toughest fight of his career)

          Alexander
          Juan Manuel Marquez (at 130-135 though, he can still do well at 140+ but he shouldn't have fought Mayweather as his first fight at 140+)
          Abraham
          Steve "USS" Cunningham (very underrated and overlooked, doesn't have much Power but he is a Warrior and he has excellent boxing skills and stamina)

              My list of fighters I don't like to watch is probably shorter than the list of fighters I do check for, but the guys I particularly like right now are:

              - Floyd Mayweather Jr
              - Manny Pacquiao
              - Juan Manuel Marquez
              - Andre Dirrell
              - Rafael Marquez
              - Anselmo Moreno
              - Nonito Donaire (I find his career very frustrating but I do enjoy watching him)
              - Fernando Montiel
              - Hozumi Hasegawa
              - Guillermo Rigondeaux
              - Devon Alexander
              - Miguel Cotto

              Plus a few overrated Euro bum Brit hype jobs.
