10 Lomachenko
00 Pacquiao
90 Tyson
80 Tyson
70 Foreman
60 Ali
50 Marciano
40 Robinson
10 could also be GGG, he had like 99% ko's from
2010 till 2018
90 could als be Tua, he was in so many wars in the 90's
Most fun is very subjective
Like the 1970's Earnie Shavers was a joy to watch. He either knocked you out or was knocked out himself. Very unpredictable but extremely entertaining.
I do not find Lomenchenko fun to watch. He is a great boxer with amazing skill, but his fights are quite predictable.
Joshua or Wilder are more fun to watch. Both are a knock out waiting to happen in my opinion
It all depends on your view of FUN TO WATCH.

gattis a bit underrated as a fighter by a lot of hardcore fans and im seeing it more and more, not saying he was anything special at all, but too many hardcore fans act like he was a terrible bum and was too bad a fighter to qualify as great in terms of being entertaining and a warrior.. see it quite commonly when he gets brought up.

Loma is fun to watch. His footwork is finesse. He is technicly, but while being technicly still offensive minded. He always goes for the tko ko, paces the action. Fast accurate great combos good power. Joy to watch him.
Wilder is not fun to watch. Nothing but a street fight. A moron swinging wild hooks.

Again it depends on what you call FUN.
Lomenchenko is masterful but not fun in my opinion. But to each their own

Not for decade but just some names that comes in mind: nowadays George Groves and Tyson Fury. In the recent past Joe Calzaghe, Sergio Martinez, Pacquiao untill the Margarito fight. In the past (eighties and before): Sugar Ray Leonard, Ron Lyle MUhammad Ali, Salvador Sanchez, Julio Cesar Chavez.
