Although I like many fighters, I only have one favorite fighter.
1. Wilfredo (Bazooka) Gomez.
The man was a thing of beauty. It was like mixing Manny pacquiao with Mike Tyson.

In no particular order:
Hagler Grew up watching him. Fostered my love of boxing.
Pernell "Sweet Pea" Whittaker Probably my number one favorite.
B-Hop The guy is a living legend. I thought he beat Calzaghe and won one of the Taylor fights.
Morales Watching him sit on the canvas against Pacman was one of the saddest things I have seen in boxing.
Riddick Bowe Never gets the respect he deserves. This guy was one of the top heavyweights of the nineties, he just burnt out too fast. His skills were head and shoulders above most boxers in that decade.
Duran an animal in the ring and he looks just like my neighbor.
Iron Mike I loved the early mike Tyon with the head movement and those fists tucked under his chin, just awesome!
Chavez His record alone speaks enough about him.
Mayweather Most Skilled boxer of this generation.
Sugar Shane Another living legend. Beat almost everyone who mattered in the last ten years.
Tito I know his record had been tarnished at the end, but he was still beautiful to watch in the ring and was a true gentleman outside the ring.

Joe Calzaghe, Manny Pacquiao, Miguel Cotto, Shane Mosley, Juan Manuel Marquez, Juan Diaz(he won me 1 grand when he stopped julio diaz. Only fight I ever bet on and I never betted again even though I won) Shockingly I'm quite right on most of my predictions and if I was a smart person which I'm not, I would be betting because i think I wouldn't be so broke right now if I had bet since I'm usually pretty good at betting.
