Confidence, courage, and the ability to fight have all been a magnet for females in much of the animal kingdom since the dawn of evolution.
And hardly any athletes embody these qualities like boxing athletes.
Combined with great looks and strong personalities, some boxers can give Chris Hemsworth a run for his money.
So, recently at Total Shape, we decided to vote on the most charming male boxing athletes of our era.
We also asked our readers to weigh in to equalize some of our biases.
Here are the final results.
Top 21 Hottest Male Boxers
It's worth noting that this list was only based on looks and general appeal, not the boxer’s abilities in the ring.
