Ali #1 for sure.

Tyson is another huge fave of mine.

Also liked Arturo Gatti.

Enjoyed boxing back when Sugar Ray Leonard, Thomas Hearns & Marvin Hagler were duking it out. Some great fights there!

My favorite boxer is Marvin Hagler ..the best middleweight champion of history.I will never forget that amazing fight(it was a war) against Tommy Hearns in 1985 with that outstanding first round.It only lasted 3 rounds but it was a real war.

I liked Mike Tyson on his prime, he was great ! Sad he got out of focus years later. He could retire undefeated. His first coach when we was young was great, after he left him, problems started.
But he is the best to me.

Most of all, as a boxer, I respect Mike Tyson. Despite his short height of 1.78 m, he had a very fast speed and very well felt the opponent and the ring. Perhaps for what I loved him as a boxer, it is for his speed and reaction. As for a man, I can’t say anything about him, I consider him only as an athlete.

Best of the best all time boxer is a MUHAMMAD ALI. Second MIKE TYSON.
 
•Felix “Tito” Trinidad as welterweight was absolutely brilliant and extraordinary.
• Julio Cesar Chavez as lightweight and super lightweight was one the best in history in my opinion .
•Sugar Ray Robinson is whit not hesitation the best boxer ever welterweight super welterweight and middleweight this man was from another league in boxing level.

My favorite boxer of all times is Manny Pacquiao. All of his fights are just exciting to watch. I hope Manny can fight until he is 45. He will make history if he can still fight and win at that age.
 
Carl Froch for me loved his grit and determination, I guess they all have it but even for a FOREST fan I admired his skills

Boxing is tough fair play to them all, brutal hits :-(
 
Leonard Doroftei, little puncher. He was a boxing hero for my country as I grew up, but perhaps the real legend was his coach, Titi "Prosop", prosop meaning towel in english. He used to literally eat the towel from his hand during Doroftei's matches, being stressed out.

So many to choose from but one that hasnt been mentioned is Julio César Chávez his 90-fight unbeaten streak from the beginning of his career is the longest such run for a world-class fighter the sport has ever known. While his record was 89-0-1 going into his first loss to Frankie Randall and had an 87 fight win streak until his draw with Pernell Whitaker.

JCC one of a kind. Marvin Hagler was in these guys company.
 
Since we are talking 'favourite' rather than greatest I would say for me Ricky Hatton. Partly as I am also from Manchester but mostly because he was also game for a fight and entertaining both inside the ring and out of it. The hatton vs Mayweather press conferences and weigh in a prime example of this. Here in the UK he was a real fans favourite in his hey day.
