For me it is Joe Calzaghe. I used to love regularly pwning nubs on here when Joe was around. I wonder if any people on here were around when I used to annoy the local fat Yanks to the point of reporting, just by referring to him as Smokin' Joe, The Real Smokin' Joe, etc. Cringeworthy now, but I was a teenager back then.

Joe Calzaghe for me as well. Though I wasn't a Floyd fan, I liked the anticipation around his fights. I miss that. After Ward and Mayweather retired, everyone now seems beatable. Floyd and Andre had that, "can anyone beat them?" factor.

Froch, Still remember his classic with Pascal as a young teenager on ITV a few years after i heavily got into boxing. what a underappreciated war that was.
Jermain Taylor another come from behind classic. the classic kessler fights, the Bute destruction as a big underdog, the groves fights.
He epitomised what i loved about boxing, someone who was not blessed with natural ability but got by on sheer heart, determination and the will to win.
