Boxing legends like Ali, Tyson, and Sugar Ray Leonard set a high standard for today’s fighters. Their skills, charisma, and resilience influence modern champions such as Errol Spence Jr. and Canelo Álvarez. Personally, I love how these legends shaped the mindset of current stars—pushing them to elevate not just their craft but their legacy.
