    1. A fully recovered Pacquiao who looked as impressive as he did for JMM 4: - 1. There's a reason Pacquiao has refused to fight Mayweather. Only "agreeing" to promote his own fights. It's a total miss match, and was always the case. Pacquiao hasn't gotten old. He's just been exposed.
    2. Sergio Martinez at 160, or if Martinez is comfortable at 154lbs: at 160 +1 or maybe 2. At 154 if Martinez is able to proforme well at the weight +1.
    3. Robert Guerrero (May will win so whatever)
    4. The next top young lion i.e a Danny Garcia who is coming off a win against Matthyse at 140 and Devon Alexander at 147..: Replace Garcia with Trout. +1.5.
     
  2. Garcia young lion? Do me a favour that guy sucks.

    People who follow me on here know I've been a big Mayweather over the years and rate him much higher than most who know their boxing history.

    Still Mayweather is very safety conscious, 50 Cent claimed neither Mayweather or Arum were keen to make the fight. Now Mayweather could beat Pacquaio easily but he's too safety conscious, protecting his zero, clever match making

    Mayweather has avoided allot of boxers he could have beat. Most people who haven't followed his career don't know he avoided Vivian Harris 'who's Vivian Harris'. I remember when Vivian Harris was compared to Marvin Hagler on here :lol:

    Anyway Guerrero isn't rated highly by the fans and is possibly a cherry pick but what they don't know is he's a decent tall technican with a high workrate and might have a better jab than Floyd. He might be a poor cherrypick

    Martinez would be an interesting fight but won't happen, a shame

    Decent contender who hit the jackpot pretty much, not a great fighter

    Throw records and hearsay aside. Have you seen the opponents Ross and Armstrong beat? If so how good do you think are?

    Canzoneri looks fantastic.
     
  7. Safety cautious is a better way of describing him, thats how I see him, he'll do pretty much anything to remain undefeated even if it means avoiding potential tough customers, some people see it as *****, I see it as avoiding having to push himself to the brink. I remember Vivian Harris lol.

    Guerrero is tougher than Ortiz for sure, he's gonna try to make this as ugly a fight as he can, I've been saying it for a while that Mayweathers on the decline so Guerrero does have a chance but I think Mayweather will maneuver the fight where he needs it to be and ultimately be to accurate and frustrating for Guerrero to win the fight. Mayweather UD or late stoppage.

    Yeah, I know where you're going with this. The five best fighters I've ever seen would be Pernell Whitaker, Roy Jones, Ray Leonard, Roberto Duran and Ray Robinson in no particular order. The old timers are a bit like Rakim, KRS-One and Big Daddy Kane, PP. Some would rate them highest on an ATG list, even though GZA (Whitaker) is the better lyricist. Ray Robinson is Kool G Rap, as he adapted a very modern and uncanny flow that compares to any modern day MC.




    :lol:

    He do.
     
  10. I've gotta say and I know I'll get shot down for this but from what I've seen of SRR I feel he's overated. Now I haven't seen that much of the guy so its hard to say but guys like Basillio and Lamotta are slow as hell, I can see SRL or Hearns dealing with those guys quicker than Robinson.

    Don't he. And there's enough footage to make a call.

    Yeah, he's a great fighter. Inside the Top 20 for me, probably.

    It's a shame that the current environment affords him the opportunity to stage manage his career and earn a ton of dough in the process.

    He's not so scared to face opponents as he is to lose his dollar value.

    In another era he would have been a fantastic fighter, but his resume will always stop him from being amongst the true kings of the sport.
