And there was me tempted to buy the Rock Box-Set for a tenner the other week.
The best all-round boxer has to be Floyd Mayweather Jnr i love his defensive style when he starts and how he picks off this opponent so tatically and how cocky he is he reminds me of a boxing mourinho he will do anything to win

Rocky! nah joke
I never really followed boxing much, But haye was one of my favourites but no longer.
I like Amir Khan and before anyone says bla bla hes **** or whatever else, I dont care. I watched him since the Olympics and have always liked him I always like people who I see rise from the beginining such as Mark Allen at snooker.
So Amir Khan is my favourite.
I love watching Manny Pacquiao also as he is just sheer quality.

Greatest round of boxing i've ever seen, truely gripping from start to finish.
A tribute to the heart and determination of Arturo Gatti, the most couragous fighter ever.

everyone loves Jake LaMotta after raging bull though.
Pacqiuo is becoming my favourite boxer, he's just too good.
i know we are talking pro here but i love Teofilo Stevenson, it's a shame he didn't fight Ali but then he would have had to defect
EDIT:
Henry Cooper for this left hook too

I remember Naz couldnt take a bat... ended up in prison for either death by dangerous driving or injury by dangerous driving (or something like that) and is now a right little tubster.
How about Willie pep? Not 100%, but I'm pretty sure he's the only boxer to have won a round without throwing a punch, just ducked, dived and slipped for 3mins and his opponent never landed a glove on him. That's pretty special. (if its true that is! Read it in a boxing magazine)
Would probably have to say Ali is the greatest though, not the hardest puncher but lightening fast and could also take a **** of a beating (thrilla in manilla, rumble in the jungle)
