Im a young nigga so im only gonna list the boxers that I actually watched.

1)Roy Jones Jr. = too bad this guy has a bad work ethic or he could have passed Muhammad Ali as the greatest. This nigga needs to stop rapping and focus on the ring.
2)Bernard Hopkins = Fights wit alot of heart.
3)Shane "Sugar" Mosley
4)Zab Judah
5)Andre Ward = Its only a matter of time till he becomes pound for pound the best in the world. Ya'll remember this kid's name cuz U gonna be hoppin' on his bandwagon when he becomes a middle weight champion in 2007.
6)Felix Trinidad = IF he beats Winky Wright in his next fight, he should be back as pound for pound the best in the world.
7)Floyd Mayweather Jr.
8)Mike Tyson
9)Antonio Barrera
10)Winky Wright

As U notice, I only have 1 heavyweight on my list. I have watching heavyweight fights cuz it gets boring after 5th Round when they get tired and becomes a slow ass fight.

He's gotta get down to around 230 lbs, improve his cardio, and throw more combinations. He needs a few more fights before he KO's Wladimir Klitschko into retirement. It's coming though.. like a freight train.

Top Five:

Miguel Cotto
Floyd Maywhether
Mike Tyson
Zab Judah
Joe Frazer


The rest= some I like and respect but not my favorite:
Marvin Hagler
Manny Pacqiuoa
Andre Ward
James Toney

And last but certainly not least is Kostya Tzu-It's sad I don't really like him, you know I'm not a fan, but It's a fact he could knock out anybody in my Top five, and just about anybody out right now thats under 160...

A few things I want to say: Bernard Hopkins-Overrated, going to get knocked out by Jermaine Taylor

Andre Ward is real good, but he'd get knocked out by Taylor too

For some reason I dislike Trinidad, but If he fights like he did in his last fight he'll work Winky.

Samuel Peters, good, real jugernaught type dude, but If he didn't get rid of Wladimir early, he'd be in trouble- Throws wide puches, Klitchzko has a good fast jab, it would be a problem.

I only saw one fight with Jack Jonson, and it was on ESPN Classics. He got dumped on....but I guess that is why they showed it as a classic.

Whats up with everyone and Andre Ward?
His defense has barely been tested.
His combo's are so-so...
He has fast hands, but isnt a heavy hitter.
The guy will get his frist loss within his first 15 fights.

People like him for the same reason you doubt him, because he's young and inexperienced . Today's boxing fans want to see some new talent, Boxers like De La Hoya, Mosley, Hopkins, are a thing of the past, they're corrupt.

You'll notice my top Fighter is Miguel Cotto.

^^^^

I agree with the Ward statement. If it wasn't for RJJ backing him up so much, Ward wouldn't be as big of a name that he is now.

Cotto - Ha, get ready for the Abdullaev fight...its going to be a great one.
