    Good choices. I had a long list though for my favourite lol, the all time one and the current one, i know chris byrd is really boring fighter and i shouldnt have him on my list, but on boxrec.com hes ranked 1st and somehow he always wins, hes very fast thats why, doesnt have power but very quick.

      That's the problem with me, I only like a fighter if they bring entertaining fights. I still admire the boxers for their skills but they aren't as appealing to me as let's say Prime Tyson, Trinidad and brawling Gatti. There are many more I can list but I'm just listing my favorite entertaining fighters

        Not to mention he has the most boxing talent at heavyweight since ALI.

          I was just going to say, hes almost as quick as Ali...some people dont agree with that but this is my opinion, i know its only a video game but in fight night 2004 when i see chris byrd vs any heavyweighy computer vs computer byrd always wins, he won against holyfield, lewis, roy jones, ali, toney all of them on UD...i know i know its only a game, put just postin how the creator of the game made byrds stats, i do think the guy has a decent handspeed and good movement in the ring, and he did get his first 13 fight 10 by KO, he had power before but now hes got good speed.

                No offense but you can't debate matchups using a computer game. There are so many intangibles to boxing other then speed and power.

                  yes im not thick i know that, but chris byrd has, chin, stamina, heart, speed.. all of that, he doesnt have the power but he can go 12 rounds with anyone winning a boring decision by beating them

                    To each is own but Hagler was a monster and Liston too not to mention the great story of his career with the Mob allegations and all.

                      IMO Chris Byrd could have some decent power if he actually tried to hurt you. He jabs and throws left hands to just barely slap the guys head.
