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.

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
