Is there a specific fighter who got you interested in boxing initially?

For me, it's clearly Mike Tyson. The first fight I remember watching live is in fact Tyson - Bruno in 1989. Which fighter got you hooked on boxing, if any in particular?

For me, it's Muhammad Ali, I grew up with him and he never failed to amaze. Fights with Frazier, Foreman and Norton defined an era and one of his greatest wins came at the tail end of his career when he managed to outfox Shavers, the chin wrecking bulldozer of the 70s.

Muhammad Ali, Pipino Cueavas, Alexis Arguello , Roberto Duran Rafel Bazoka Limon, Ernie Chavers, Larry Holmes , Tommy Hearns were my favorite boxers of all time and kept me hooked on the sport

My earliest memory of boxing was Steve Collins vs Benn, I was 5 years old in 96' and that fight was huge in Ireland! I remember my Dad and brother watching the fight in the local pub, place was literally packed and the atmosphere was electric!

I never really loved boxing until I saw carlos molina fight. Truly was a spectacle and I dropped my drink in awe of what was unfolding before my very eyes.

I was officially hooked on boxing when I saw miguel vazquez fight. That's when I fell in love with the sweet science.
