| Favorite Boxers of All Time
Who are your favorite boxers of all time?
Obviously from my AV, Erik El Terrible Morales is my favorite of all time, he rarely said anything outside of the ring and always spoke with his fists. Always respected him, and it hurt me when he just gave up against Pacquiao. Other favorites have to be the Klitschko Brothers, Roy Jones Jr, and Marvin Hagler

Joe Frazier, EriK Morales, Aruturo Gatti, Marvin Hagler, and everyone that watches fights today should have Vasquez or Marquez or both on their list.

Erik Morales and RJJ! I also use to really like Tyson when he was in his prime.

I do realize my picks probably won't be remotely popular, but these are people that I like, not who I think are the greatest ever.
I'm a pretty big fan of Lennox Lewis. Just always liked watching him fight and I think he carries himself well.
The second? 'Prince' Naseem Hamed. I know a lot of people don't like him but I always thought he was entertaining.

So many that I've grown to like, a lot of them just from video.
Salvador Sanchez
Roberto Duran
Alexis Arguello
Evander Holyfield
Manny Pacquiao
Oscar de la Hoya
Julio Cesar Chavez
Israel Vazquez
Erik Morales
Marvin Hagler
Arturo Gatti
Mickey Ward
Kelly Pavlik
Miguel Cotto
Antonio Margarito
Those are the ones that immediately come to mind. When I was a kid though, I thought boxing ended and began with Evander and Oscar, those two are still among my all-time favorites among boxers of my actual generation.
