Lol, it's definitely Manny. Nobody else is close. Second would be Roy Jones.

Re: Which active boxer has the most impressive win resume?
Yup! Although we don't know their next fight. They're not retired. So, #1 nd #2 right there. Canelo is top 5..SaadOffTheDeck wrote: ↑26 Nov 2017, 17:35 Lol, it's definitely Manny. Nobody else is close. Second would be Roy Jones.
Would have been easier but a lot of guys retired this year..

If he's included. Then he's probably around #4 or #5 best win resume. Key word is 'win'..0

I wouldn't have canelo top 5. I'd have cotto and Gonzalez ahead of him.Ruthless-RKO wrote: ↑26 Nov 2017, 17:55Yup! Although we don't know their next fight. They're not retired.

Re: Which active boxer has the most impressive win resume?
Roman Gonzalez, but if he's still considered active, it'd be Manny Pacquiao. I don't consider Pacquiao active, though. I saw mention of Roy Jones Jr. and James Toney. They're beyond shot and not even close to needing to be included. Pacquiao and Gonzalez can still be competitive unlike the two mentioned.
Pacquiao
Gonzalez
Cotto
Alvarez: Lara, Trout, and Cotto
Estrada: Viloria, Cuadras, and Melindo
Santa Cruz: Frampton, Mares, and Mijares
Rigondeaux: Donaire and Agbeko
Kovalev: Hopkins, Pascal, and Cleverly
Thurman: Porter, Garcia, and Soto Karass
Golovkin: Jacobs, Lemieux, and Murray
Inoue: Narvaez, Hernandez, and Taguichi
Crawford: Postol, Diaz, and Beltran
That'd probably be my guess as to the best resumes at the moment.

Re: Which active boxer has the most impressive win resume?
That's true. Many aren't thinking of those guys because they are past it and one foot in and one foot out. But chances are, if you ask who has the most impressive win resume between active boxers, it would more likely be someone who stayed around too long with a full career (Jones, Pacquiao) as opposed to someone who is just at their peak.

Re: Which active boxer has the most impressive win resume?
Could maybe throw Mikey Garcia in the mix.
Re: Which active boxer has the most impressive win resume?
I don't even think it's close or debatable...GGG has the most impressive resume of any current/active boxer in the world. Tell me if you can find anyone with a tougher stretch of fights in the last 2 years...Canelo, Jacobs, Brook and Lemieux? Kidding me? No one has even come close to putting together a strong of quality wins like that.
Unfortunately, GGG's career has been marred by those "Ya but" critics that have refused to give GGG his due. For instance, Daniel Jacobs got more publicity or credit than GGG did and GGG won the fight. Brook got his head broken but he's a warrior for getting in the ring with GGG even though he didn't last half the fight. Lemieux was knocking everyone out...GGG demolishes him and all of a sudden Lemieux isn't as good as we thought he was even though Lemieux continued to knock everyone out after the GGG fight too. I'm hopeful that the robbery against Canelo finally changes things and the public can begin appreciating GGG more because I've been saying it for years, this is a once in a lifetime talent we are watching. The best Middleweight i've ever witnessed since I started watching in 1975. My opinion...I know it's arguable.

Re: Which active boxer has the most impressive win resume?
It's a good case to make.. The question does say 'win resume'.. I thought he beat Canelo, but the records will always show a draw.caldo2025 wrote: ↑27 Nov 2017, 08:05 I don't even think it's close or debatable...GGG has the most impressive resume of any current/active boxer in the world.

I still think his win resume is good still, he cleared out as many middleweights that got into the ring with him..

Re: Which active boxer has the most impressive win resume?
Erik morales x2, Barrera x2, hatton, Marquez x2, cotto, Bradley x2. I mean c'mon, if you're even talking about David lemieux you know you have no case. I know it's no fun to spit out the easy answer, but it's the only one that's valid. That's 7 guaranteed wins against Hof fighters and I think hatton and Bradley will make it too.
Re: Which active boxer has the most impressive win resume?
Orlando Salido has a win against Lomachenko. That might be the single biggest notch on anybody's belt right now. He was overweight, fought dirty but he got the W against a guy who then went into the P4P discussion.
Re: Which active boxer has the most impressive win resume?
Also has a win against ODLH, another HOF'er and Mosely a probable. I think you have to consider Pacquiao an active fighter as well.SaadOffTheDeck wrote: ↑27 Nov 2017, 08:32 Erik morales x2, Barrera x2, hatton, Marquez x2, cotto, Bradley x2.

Re: Which active boxer has the most impressive win resume?
Yeah I'd consider him active as he's still acting as if he's still planning to fight at least once more.
Re: Which active boxer has the most impressive win resume?
But the question wasn't win resume in the last 2 years, it was simply a win resume and GGG doesn't have the most impressive wins resume of ALL active boxers.caldo2025 wrote: ↑27 Nov 2017, 08:05 I don't even think it's close or debatable...GGG has the most impressive resume of any current/active boxer in the world.
