BORED WHILE waiting for LACY fight..WHy do you like your favorite fighter(s)?

[TuPrincipe]

Marvin Hagler- When Hagler was in his prime, I loved Hagler's right jab and right hook. He set them up and landed them best when his opponent came to him. You couldn't out-muscle Hagler and that's what I loved about him. Only 2 fighter's went the distance with Hagler (Duran and Leonard), both of which fought Hagler when he was out of prime. Hagler at his counter-punching best was unbeatable. Even though early in his career, he started out shaky, he came back, and is one of the best middleweights ever. That is what boxing is all about.

Carlos Monzon- He was a very intelligent fighter and he always fought with poise and confidence. It didn't matter who you are or how the fight was going he was just going to win. That's the type of fighter he was.

1. bernard hopkins, impenetrable defense via his godly reflexes, his right roll is comparable to winky wrights, (wright is better at it) bernard shines at seeing a punch coming and then dodging it, remembering the hole and spot and delivering a solid right cross where he found his opponents flaw when the guy tries it again. while he has power in his hooks, he knows that a straight punch will reach the target much faster than a hook punch, and favors the right cross in most counterpunch situations, making for an intense serious counterpunch as soon as his opponent ****s up.

2. i only have 1 favorite.
