I think that I am going to catch some flack.

I miss Timothy Bradley (Ramming Speed). I will never forget his epic battle with Provodnikov.

Few resumes compare to his run from 2007 to his retirement after the third Pac fight in 2016. He always came to fight, always showed up in shape, always a great attitude.

RJJ

Not the latter career RJJ (obviously), but the RJJ that combined incredible handspeed, power, combos and everyfuckingthing else.
I just loved watching him in his prime and his earlier fights.
One of his knockdowns of Bryant Brannon was an insane lead left combo of left hook, left to body, left uppercut (or something like that). He made it look so simple. Incredible talent.

RJJ was next level gifts-wise.

Thanks for bringing PWill to the table. He is in my top 5. Tragic end to his career. Always good value.

We need more Provodnikovs. Glad he got out though. He gave the sport everything he could.

I do miss the prime SMartinez. Despite the win over JCC jr., the Mexican signaled the end for Sergio.

Another Kelly Pavlik or three could not hurt boxing.

There will never be another BHop.
