The moment you knew "he" was your favorite

[LetOutTheCage]

Watching old videos of Ali, an intelligent and extremely funny guy outside the ring but an absolute monster inside. The biggest travesty is that we never got to see prime Ali.

Hatton fought like a complete moron in that fight. What was he doing when he got hit with that hook? All fight he was taking shots to the head from Floyd and he didnt adjust once. Joke of a fight

Well, there's only one...Ricky Hatton.

Probably figured "none of his shots hurt, I'll just walk right through and land a shot" - and walked into a turnbuckle. Loved that moment and still do.

I got two

When he got off the ground 3 times to become a top 5 fighter again against Samuel Peter

When he dropped the undefeated J-Rock with a jab

Clinchko - before he relied on hugging. Nice one

This ^^^
I was a Wlad fan even before the Sanders fight but against Peter the guy showed he had heart and not just skills..

I wouldn't say he became a favorite but watching Bradley against the ropes just swinging for the fences when he was out on his feet against Provodnikov made me a fan. I had hated Bradley since the Alexander fight but watching his heart against Ruslan I became a fan.

Yeah and also when he beat Pac the first time and the whole boxing world turned against him, but he didn't quit. He regained his respect. A true warrior in every way.

I hated Pac when he beat down MAB who was one of my favorite fighters. But, after his fights with Morales he grew on me and I was sold, he was the real deal.

Watching RJJ make easy work of a journeyman or two, and then dominate Hopkins, I instantly recognized his reflexes, speed and power and realized I was witnessing something special.
