Marvin Hagler. It took a screw job for him to lose.

Chin was unreal . Never knocked down once in his career( besides a bogus trip called a knockdown).
Sugar Ray Robinson. Tommy Hearns . Julian Jackson ( KO power unreal).

Yeah but he was boring to watch.
Probably played a factor in the decision.
Question was favorite not best...favorite is entertainment.

Hagler wasnt boring to watch
Oh my Sensei. Where do you come up with these things?
You probably think watching Holmes was boring also.

Ironically fought one of the most exciting short fights in history against Hearns.

The Mugabi fight, Vito Amufirto trilogy, and Syprion fights weren’t boring either. He just stopped people and took their souls. He also fought anywhere unlike Leonard who needed Vegas to win.

Gatti
JCC
Sweet Pea
Lewis
Holyfield

This little shite was so entertaining to me. One of my all time favorites. His entrances were high value entertainment. Wish Barrera wouldn't have ended him..

Hagler was no ' boring' or defensive fighter like Mayweather ,Whitaker or Locche( check out his defense).
If you wanted to go toe to toe Hagler would oblige.

Oh god, remember when Anderson Silva wanted to box RJJ?
Posted on 5/20/18 at 4:41 pm to sugar71
Hagler would switch Southpaw in mid rounds. It was nuts. He just was the perfect fighter. It took a rigged fight to end him. He stuck to his word also about that.

I dont remember that, but that would have been flat out retarded. RJJ was IMO, the most gifted boxer there has ever been. He made great fighters, world champions, look like amateurs.
James Toney was 46-0, 26 years old in his prime, favored, the champ, and in consideration as the best p4p in the world. Roy came out and turned the fight into a joke. Dancing, showboating, knocking Toney on his arse, then toying with him winning 11 of 12 rounds, maybe all 12. And Toney was really really really good and in his prime. Toney even went on to win a heavyweight belt and of course fought Randy Couture in the Octogon.
What Roy would have done to Silva would have been dangerous if Roy got pissed. RJJ vs Silva in the Octagon might have actually been interesting if it happened before Roy went up then back down from heavyweight. Silva was never much of a grappler and liked to strike. Roy was so damn athletic and fast he might have had a shot with a just a year of training. Yeah Silva could kick but Roy was quicksilver and basically untouchable on his feet.

Roy Jones Jr. Dude knocked someone out with a liver shot.
