    What fighter attracted you to boxing?

    My first favorite fighter was Livingstone Bramble, i was a kid so that name just sounded BAD AZZ to me.
    Ofcourse i remember watching the big wigs like SRL, Hagler, Hearns and so on. But Bramble made me a real fan of the sport. (ABC Wide World Of Sports)....Those were the days man.

    He was'nt a super star, nor was he as good as the super stars, but he had heart.
    With the crazy braids and that mean looking mug, he was bad azz to me at the time.
    He went on to become champ, since then i was hooked.

        Mike Tyson did, I used to think he had the best style in boxing. Now, my favorite style in prizefighting are not swarmers but pure boxers.

              Andy Lee my cousins are from Ireland and they lived in a small town and when he was doing good in the amateurs and representing Limerick the whole town supported him and when he represented Ireland in the Olympics he became a hero around Limerick. I have met him four times and he is such a nice guy and I saw him train and he has mad skills. He attracted me personally.

              But Cotto attracted me more than any other fighter. I was always a boxing fan but I remember after seeing Cotto vs. Malignaggi I became a die hard Boxing fan after that.

                Tyson. I must have been 7 years old and my dad would talk about this kid that was the best ever. Once we got cable I would change the channel on the tv so I could listen to the fights.... Yeah, the good old days.
