Deontay Wilder (another big-mouthed jackass)

Or maybe acne, like people his age are prone to get.

At age 21?

I thought it was age 15 or so. But regardless of age, I've never seen that much acne on anyone's back!

He didn't fight like a demon against Mayweather.

He fought like he didn't want to piss Floyd off.

He fought extremely cautiously like he was afraid he'd run into something, even when he had Mayweather hurt he fired a few shots but didn't go all out and then backed away on his own before Floyd could counter him.

The way he backed off when Floyd was on the ropes was very telling.

Hard to blame him after the way Marquez planted him in the plank position face down, that could've easily happened in the Mayweather fight, Manny isn't stupid, he say what happened to Hatton when he rushed Floyd.

Can't put my finger on it all honestly Betsy, mind you I am not a Mayweather fan either.

That's cool, many people aren't. He (Floyd) doesn't exactly have a crowd pleasing style now that he's older/he is too clean and wins too easily for most to appreciate the subtle things he does in there. Most people want to see blood and guts like Gatti vs Ward but those are the type who cannot truly appreciate the art of the sport of boxing.

Manny is by no means boring although he did underwhelm vs Mayweather.

Favorite:

Golovkin
Kovalev
Thurman
Crawford
Lomachenko
Roman
and many others who fight vs run/hug and don't avoid best competition.

Wlad

I can appreciate Mayweather, but he does not put a definitive stamp on his wins that makes everyone go wow, but I like Rigo and Erislandy Lara who have also been whacked on here for being boring aller Mayweather.

No, he simply outboxes them in the sport that is known to us who can appreciate the art of it as "Boxing".

It's not called KO, or win by how many punches you throw or any other means, it's just Boxing to those of us who understand the term.

Ya reading the topic i don't get all the love for Lara. Getting 1-2 close decision against him make him a popular boxer despite the fact he is a runner ala Rigo and Mayweather. I guess Floyd would have been a fan favorite would he have lost against Castillo.

Which I do appreciate as I have enjoyed seeing Pernell Whittaker box wonderfully. My issue with Mayweather is he that outboxes and dominant his opponents, it would have more impressive if he could some fights in which he was dominant kick it up a gear or two to get the stoppage.

Should've limited this to 1 fighter. Uh, I hate lists. Anyways, my current favorite is probably Bandido Vargas. I've seen him since he was a prospect. If Mikey came back, he's my real favorite fighter.

Least favorite would probably be Martin Murray. Uh, this dude's style is horrible to watch. I actually turned off his fight against Golovkin because I was falling asleep. The same with his fight against AA. HIs style is horrid. It's like people who thought Bizier/Dan was a very good fight. Terrible styles still make for terrible fights.

Lara does have some absolute snoozers, but I wouldn't say he is my least favorite because he had an exciting match against Angulo. I've never seen Murray in a match that excited me.

Adding Lomachenko and Gvozdyk to my favorites list after their top performances.
