Why don't you guys share your favorite boxer with a little backstory and why you think that way. You can also post some exceptional combinations or knockouts of said boxer.
George Forman - Because of his brutal knockout power and the amazing story of his 2nd career, his comeback to become the heavyweight champ once again at the age of 45. The sheer power of Foreman was out of this world. And he has a chin made of Texas granite. Amazing the punishment he took from Holyfield (something like 17 unawsered punches in a row) and miraculously he stood tall. These punches that forman absorbed would have easily knocked out some of the other heavyweight contenders. Not to mention, the Ron Lyle fight was incredible as well. Forman was floored twice and still came back to win. Heart of a Lion, that's for sure.
One of my favorite fights is that of Foreman vs Cooney. It only went two rounds, but the KO at the end is wicked. .
