Who is your favorite Aussie fighter to watch, The guy who you will always watch if on TV or live.

I will start with Allan Luxford.

i'll post a vote for my man Kane McKay out of Geelong. was best fight on two of mundines undercards and was heading for #3 when headclash stopped him with lovett, would have been a classic in my books. always fit, ready to fight, ducks no-one, a real warrior.

love the loyalty for the local guy. I like parochialism with regards to fight fans. I must say that I had Porky ahead on the cards, and that brings me to one of my fav's, I can't single out one -

Porky lovett - getting better all the time (looks like a serious fighter these days). Local fighter.
Kat - he is an excitment machine
Vic - Can we claim him? I hope he doesn't continue to look for the one punch win every fight though (can't believe I wrote that).
Cool Willie - best current prospect.

Others who I rate highly in the watchability stakes -
Mark de Mori in the heavies. Smallish for the division but can bang (and he posts here)
Daniel Geale - i reckon he has the ability to add more power to his game as he goes/ages.
The Rock - still to reach his best IMO

hey toppity, you know me man, go cats.
don't get me wrong mate, i had porky ahead as well, kane is notorious slow starter, needs to do something, and i know what!! i reckon if it went the distance it would have been a cracker. must agree with most of your form guide comments.
haven't seen de mori yet, sounds ok.( luv the big boys )
bit worried about geale and power though mate, more of a technique thing to me??

For local Aussie i pick Adam Wills.

For local import -Ranee Ganoy, Ive enjoyed watching lady luck guide his career to where it is now.

I agree with this apart from one major exception!

I did like Willie Kickett until he fought gairy st clair.. i beleive st clair won comfortably and see the scores?
Lenny Zappavigna would probably be my favourate aussie at the moment.. hes got skill, power and some decent hand speed and is just fun too watch but sometimes he goes abit too wild lol..

Katsidis too, hes a machine lol.. i love watching his fights there like wars and see with cassamayor katsidis really hurt him with that body shot then sent him through the ropes and when joel was getting up the ref stopped counting after he got too 8 and cassamayor was still getting up =/ and he also wasted a bit of time.. but still he came back an got the win :(

I dont rate Wills brothers at all.


Daniel Geale & Billy Dib: Best to watch!


Overseas:Hatton.

how can you take it out on him. Did he mark the cards?

I always enjoyed watching Ben Cruze - although no longer fighting i believe, a good warrior.
Adam Wills & Porky are always good to watch.

I still don't like him. His new nickname should be "The Gift"...

Zappa
Tauasa
Geale

Gotta give props to Tyrone Tongia

Aaahh Toppity,
Somethings are better left unsaid.
I have now learnt my lesson.

Gifted maybe, StClair needs to learn to actually throw and land and not just walk forward.

Ahh what the hell,

ANTHONY MUNDINE

Even though I reckon he picks bad fights, no one can question his skill.
