    In the past, Margarito was the first fighter that I heard about this but after he got beaten by Paul Williams then the latter took his place. Williams took this position for a short period when he got KO'd unconsciously by Martinez in round 2 but it seemed to me that Martinez isn't the most feared man in boxing today. Or you think he is? If not, who's tending to be?

    on second thought, damn near all the good Cubans besides Gamboa.

    Lara and Abril will stay avoided

    It's obviously Paulie Malignaggi. No top fighter today wants to fight him. Mayweather, Pac, Bradley, Alexander they're all running from the feather-fisted fury

    being serious it would have to be top middleweight contenders Pirog, Golovkin, maybe Proksa. Neither Martinez nor other champs like Chavez, Sturm want to fight them. Their best chance at a title would be vs Aussie warrior Geale

    I'm not a native english speaker, I didn't take english classes either, It's all self taught here, therefore my grammar can really, really suck at times, luckily for me there are guys like nopporn around, all I have to do is to look at their thread titles to cheer myself up, I look at them and think to myself ¨Oh yeah, I've come a long way¨:hat



    Nobody is more feared than this guy, really

    And it sucks for him because nobody with a name will fight him

    james kirkland and golovkin are the best candidates however they're not famous enough yet.

    Rigo vs Garcia/Gonzales/Salido at 126 would be fun, if no one t 122 wants to fight him, then he should move up, like many other avoided fighters.

    Humberto Soto has had a tough time landing the big names despite being in the title picture for so long

    not sure if its by his choice or just not getting the big fight

    I think you should replace feared with avoided. And the reasons all this guys make this threads (GGG, Lara, Pirog e.t.c) is cause they are dangerouse to any of the champs but bring nothing to the table.

    You could say Martinez inherited that title.

    Lara, Molina and Rigo are all highly skilled fighters that are avoided for a reason. But the embodiment of most avoided fighter should go to Golovkin IMAO. The guy can really hurt you with one punch not just out-box you. That doesn't mean that he is great though we'll have to see him against better opposition to judge
