        Marvin Hagler! Sadly I caught his career towards the very end! I was a very little kids but I do remember watching Hagler vs Ray Leonard


        then after that I would agree with James Toney (had this weird crush on his Manager Jackie Kallen (don't judge me I was a kid lol) who they use to talk about a lot because she was the only female manager in boxing plus she was the manager of one of the best fighters in boxing at that time)

        was a big fan of Pernell Whitaker as well, also was big fan Jorge Páez, just loved that guy style, thought his haircuts was so cool back then lol

            Roy Jones Junior. I remember watching him in elementary school on a Saturday and then trying to copy his feints in karate class during the week. I remember knowing he was something special even when I was that young.

            Oscar De La Hoya. I loved how women would throw bras at him.

I remember watching his fight for the first time on ppv which I didn't order and keep in mind this was way back in the day where there's no Internet yet and I remember just looking at my tv screen but not seein anything but blurriness since I didnt pay for it lol all I could do was listen on how the fight is going lmao!! What can I say, we were poor back then.

                  Nigel Benn. I wasn't very old when the McClellan fight happened. It was the first fight I ever saw, I was only a little kid and didn't really realise the gravity of what was hapening with McClellan.

                  I got all my dad's old boxing videos out after that and was fascinated with Marciano, Willard and Hagler

                    Evander Holyfield. It was his win over Tyson that got me actively involved in the sport. Before that I was far more superficial about my interest.

                      ^hahaha so true, Oscar Drawing Power had absolutely nothing to do with his Skills, it was a lot of women ordering his fights and going to his fights
