Had a little bit of an interest before the hatton v mayweather fight but the hype and build up for that made me fall in love with the sport
Still would like to see Gamboa v Juan Ma Lopez
I liked Rigondeaux's display against Donaire but hate watching Andre Ward fight
Bradley v Provodnikov
Either Haye v Klitschko or Froch v Kessler I

Kessler
Hagler
My dad`s mate was a fighter
Mayweather v Khan
Dont find it boring but I would not say Im a purist.
I enjoyed Murray v Martinez and Alvarez v Trout. No good at picking this kind of thing,Choi v Simpson last week was good
Tyson v Francis or Calzaghe v Eubank. From purely a boxing point of view Joe v Eubank but for the size of the show Tyson.

Not really a new comer but returning.

1) In the UK Frampton. Worldwide Rigo.
2) Tough one. Always liked Mayweather, Guzman, Mallignaggi worldwide.
3) I remember as a kid being intrigued by Benn v Eubank, Bruno, Naz etc. and like allot of others I like WWF as a kid. I think were all just attracted to violence! I got hooked after watching Calzaghe v Lacy and my interested in the sport grew from there.
4) Mayweather v Alvarez @ 154lbs to secure Floyds legacy, shut a few people up.
5) I wouldn't call myself a purist, but I appreciate the noble art. I think sometimes fighters can be to technical.
6) I loved seeing Rigo dominate Donaire.
7) Pacquiao v Bradley.

I'm not a newcomer but I feel obligated to do this anyway. Fuck it.

1: Lucas Matthysse or Timothy Bradley. Don't worry though, I'm rational when it comes to Lucas. :yep
2: Alexis Arguello.
3: Hopkins-Jones II. :rofl Bit of a shitty introduction to boxing but I loved it regardless.
4: Guillermo Rigondeaux vs. Abner Mares.
5: A purist, I guess. I love and enjoy all avenues of the Sweet Science however.
6: Bradley-Provodnikov.
7: None. :conf

2.Carl Froch
3. Froch-Pascal and Jamie Cox's fights in the local area
4. There's three I think need to happen: GGG-Maravilla, Rigo-Mares and Matthysse-Garcia. Clean shit up a bit
5. Hate this, imo Rios-Alvarado is boxing just as much as Rigo's display over Donaire, but do I like watching two counter punchers/outboxers? Yes
6.Bradley-Provodnikov
