    Obviously my favorite, Juan Manuel Marquez. Also:

    Cotto

    Ward (anybody says Ward didn't dominate Froch needs to go back and look at Froch's confused,battered and frustrated face about half way into the fight. And with one good hand, no less).

    B hop

    Froch

    Golovkin

    Manny

    Bradley

    Provodnihkov

    Thurman

    Rigo

    Chavez Jr

    Loma

    Canelo

    Kirkland

    Floyd

    Kovalev

    Sure I'm forgetting somebody and sure don't I root for one over the other and get pissed at this one and that one here or there, but all these guys and more have carved themselves out a spot in a tough business and how could I not be proud to be called fan?

    Kind of a silly question to pose in a place like this after all, innit?

      Terence Crawford, wins his title in the UK. Defends against a top competitor in Gamboa... he's ready for the next level(s).

          for years we fought with the masses about how great our dude is...NOW it's out time!!!....it feels REAL good to be a BHop fan right now....I know the loyal "Executuoners" aka "The Alien Nation" feels the same way....after he beats Frankenstein I honestly think he has to be top 5 P4P....after he beats Stevenson....oh man, the debates about the top spot will be off the charts!!

              exciting fights
              They might not speak english but they don't give a sht about sht talk so it doesn't matter...they don't follow boxing so the people they fight they have no pre-existing knowledge of their character & don't understand what they are speaking half the time...

              Ward would be alright if he didn't spout all his god talk and call himself son of god. wtf.

              Can't hate on Manny. Shame he is ignorant which leads him to bieng Arum's btch though.

              I'd like Kovalev more if he didn't goof around in the ring after brutally knocking down or hurting his opponents.

              Mikey Garcia seems like a humble guy
              Can't go wrong with Rigo either really?

              Carl Froch has abit of an odd disposition...comes off blunt in giving his harsh opinions of top level british fighters...needs to get rid of the chip on his shoulder.
              There is nothing humble about Mikey.....I can easily discern that he's a classless an arrogant prick....just like his bro (Robert).

                It's gon be good. IF hopkins beats kovalev, and I think he will, the forum will be in uproar. Like you say the debates have kind of started but not on the mass scale it will be around late October/early November.

                  Tricky to say.

                  Hopkins is one of my favourites

                  Rigo (but I have to keep defending his "boring" style)

                  Toney

                  Marquez (even when people claim he's on steroids)

                  Cotto

                  Hearns

                  Matthyse

                  Crawford

                    No doubt it's a great time to be a Hopkins fan. I can't stand the man and even I can't hate on him right now. He's making the rest of the sport look like b*tches.
