I love risky punchers with skill. IE... Maidana, Thurman, Golovkin, Pacquiao. They make boxing awesome.

3 of those 4 names have a lot higher skill level than the other!

In terms of skill, I'd rate as this...

G
Manny
Keith
Maidana

However, even though Maidana is last on that list, and even though he is more known for his aggression and power, he still has a high level of skill when compared to the entirety of everyone in the sport. He has a great jab and great footwork which enables him to cut off the ring well. Even against Floyd he was able to cut off the ring plenty of times. It was then that Floyd would consistently tie up and Kenny would reset them. Plus, his aggression is a skill in itself. A lot of peole act as if Maidana is just some raw brawler when that simply is not the case.

GGG
Bhop
Wilder
Kovalev
Sergio Martinez
Crawford
Fury
Keith Thurman

I've always been a pac man but I have really started to dislike him over the last couple years.

Guillermo Rigondeaux
Roman Gonzalez
Shinsuke Yamanaka
Gennady Golovkin
Sergey Kovalev
Wlad Klitschko
Carl Froch
Keith Thurman
Lucas Matthysse
Ruslan Provodnikov
Takashi Uchiyama
Rances Barthelemy
Mikey Garcia

There can be only one.

The Gomez.


/end thread

For me.

Wladimir K
Gennady Golovkin
Anthony Joshua.
Billie Joe Saunders
Carl Froch
Carl Frampton
Kid Galahad

Are the immediate standouts for me.

LOL, I forgot Golovkin & Kovalev.

I'm really looking forward to Saunders/Eubank Jr. They don't make fights like that in the US anymore.

GGG
Pacman
Joshua
Joe Parker
Wilder
Thurman

Fury, use to be on the list but he is turning into David Haye.

Two top-level domestic prospects. That is a good match-up even if one guy clearly wins.

My favorites are: Golovkin, Kovalev, Lomachenko, R. Gonzalez, Matthysse, Froch, Kessler, Clottey, M. Garcia, Frampton, Katsidis, Pacquiao, and W. Klitschko. I am a fan of prospects like Zewski, Kavaliauskas, Khytrov, Usyk, Tanaka, and others.

I always find it funny that people who hate FMJ's holding enjoy Klitschko and his holding style.
Not knocking anyone in particular just an observation from other threads.
