    Joel Casamayor.

    This guy inspired Cuban boxing in an era where it was very almost irrelevant.

        Favorite fighter of any generation?

        Rocky Marciano.

        To me, Marciano represents everything that boxing should be about. He was a good genuine person outside the ring, and a no nonsense, no quit, balls out effort guy in the ring. He fought everyone that was anyone during his career, he didn't duck anyone, and he didn't stick around well past his prime.

        Further more, and maybe most important, he understood that the fans fuel this sport and ultimately provide the means to pay the bills. With that knowledge, he tried to make every fight action packed. He brought the fight to his opponents, which were often bigger than him, and he threw nearly every punch with the intention of knocking his opponent out.

          You mean Ducking Joe Louis while he was in his prime. Yeah He straight up ducked Joe Louis while he was in his Prime. He fought Louis when he was past his prime.

            Mike Tyson, because he was everything you hope to see in a fighter.

              he is a smart intelligent man, incredible power and physique (always in great shape), has a beautiful and loving fiancée, the heart of a champion, a magnetic personality and smile, and he is overall a good example for all human beings.
              The thread is about which boxer you like the most, not which one you'd like to take home to meet your mum.

                If were talking all time than mine would be Muhammad Ali

                If were talking right now than Manny Pacquiao

                Inside the ring I like fighters with great handspeed and footwork and willing to risk it all to be great. Outside the ring I admire people who set positive examples and help the less fortunate.

                    Hmm? How? He ducked getting a title shot? Doesn't the purpose of being a fighter? Rocky wasn't even in title contention during Joe's prime.

                      I like that there are still fans of the old school fighters.
