Mikel Tyson was must watch TV in his heyday.. I was a kid but I remember gathering for family watch parties whenever he was on. Even as a child I knew not to take my eyes off the TV because Tyson was capable of ending the fight with 1 nasty punch.

RJJ is great. Anyone born around when I was (81) probably has memories of Tyson's fights as events.

Going back in time, Foreman is seriously underrated. Most people remember the old Foreman, but when I saw his younger fights (from before I was born) I am a huge fan.

Ali, I don't know how anyone could dislike him. When Hearns, Leonard, Hagler and Duran were all fighting each other, that may have been the greatest series of fights, and I like all those guys...for different reasons.

I usually don't get hung up on just one fighter because I enjoy the sport but if I had to pick I'd say McGregor. Great shite talked, and great fighter.

I also really liked Vitor Belfort.

Pacquiao without a doubt. Just so legendary and moved up so many weight classes, plus his story is unreal.
