To not have Roman Gonzalez is absolutely incredible, there are division's below super bantamweight just so you know, I don't need to say anymore.

I left Andy Lee off my list but he is top 5 for me for sure. His KO of Jackson was incredible, as was his comeback against Korobov.

Who's knocking him? I guess telling the truth isn't part of the equation, the question of the thread is "What is your top 5 most fun boxers to watch?" GGG isn't fun, sure he gets the KO but he's never in a back and forth action type fight whereas LSC is always in those type of bouts.

Why is it that you are having a problem with the answers people are providing when it clearly asks "What is YOUR top 5 most fun boxers to watch?"

I don't have a problem with your top 5 and i don't expect your top 5 or anyone else's to look like mine, it's my choice, I respect your decision so please respect mine
.

You say this in one breath then in another thread above you knock someone's choice of GGG and say that he's knocked out a bunch of bums. Pretty hypocritical but that's why this is a fun post. People put up their top 5's and then we argue about it.

I love LSC's fights. Even when the world threw him off P4P lists because he acquired the "only fights bum" moniker, i wouldn't miss one of his fights. He fights one quality boxer in Mares and now everyone forgives and forgets. It's just funny to me is all. I think that GGG will only get credit at this point if he defeats Ward or Kovalev at higher weights, which is pretty pathetic. Even if he beats Canelo or Cotto, he'll still have to deal with criticism.

Just trying to understand this hypocrisy.
I have a feeling that if he were both Black and American Brute wouldn't be criticizing him to the extent he is. He would probably be defending him from people leveling the same criticisms he is doing. ;;-)

Oh I'm well aware of it but the world surely isn't. That's why Gonzales can't carry a Main Event and he's still stuck on undercards. To me, if you have never carried a main event yourself and only been on TV a few times, you don't belong on the list. Roman Gonzales is the new popular pick by everyone just recently without having a memorable moment in the ring that anyone can remember. The sports P4P best boxers, don't continually fight on undercards, I'm sorry. If he was half as good as you think he is, he'd have a PPV under his belt or something. If people cared, he'd get paid like it. Next? You're argument is so weak.

My argument is weak? Your rating fighters by how many main events they have been in!

The only reason why Chocolatito is not a PPV fighter is because he is a flyweight from Nicaragua, if he was an American welterweight he would have been a PPV fighter 3 years ago.

Please stop digging that hole and embarrassing yourself.

I find Kovalev to be the most enjoyable to watch.

Also Povetkin, Golovkin, Joshua and Beterbiev.

I like boxers with a combination of skill and power.

I never knocked his choice of GGG, I just don't find him to be an exciting fighter but I have my opinion of which I'm entitled to-if you don't agree with me then that is fine and personally can careless if he is black or white that has no bearing with me as you can tell if you are intelligent enough to read who my top 5 are.

You missread, with the exception of Porter everyone else has been a knock over. I've seen almost every single Brook fight - I could walk to the bloke's house in less than 2 minutes, met him numerous times... so I'm a fan of his, but I honestly couldn't say that he's hads an exciting career. I'd say it's been a horribly frustrating one that's moved along at a snails pace.
As a GGG fan, this is the sort of thing that doesn't make sense to me. GGG's resume is far better than LSC and Brook put together but people knock him because he's THAT much better than all of these quality fighters he demolishing. They will say the same thing after the Lemieux fight even though if you are making an honest list of P4P fighters as of 9/6/15, Lemieux deserves to crack the top 20. That's if you're making an honest list. GGG will get zero credit for this win and that's a shame because this fight is going to be the FOY type of event.
There is no way on this earth that Lemiux is anywhere near the current P4P top 20
