    I think that Kovalev has the most skill.

    i enjoyed his calm demeanor. He can box, and he can slug. He is patient. He just has to keep his hands up higher. He even show boated when Cleverly tried.

    Roy jones was talking like Kovalev was going to get tired if he didn't finish Clev. WTF!

    The three guys are very similar in ways. I'd possibly favour GGG in the skills department but three guys are well skilled and set up their power very well.

    the way he was fighting, it was very possible he could have gassed out, but I've seen no indication that he has bad stamina. Just saying his style of fighting takes a lot of conditioning and we haven't seen him fight past 8 rounds before

    Kovalev kicked Cleverely's ass flat out

    After he got used to and understood his range to avoid the jab Cleverly was done for...

    Ggg just due to his amatuer background. I think when his in with a fighter who can handle his power we are going to see ggg show his technique

    Golovkin is definitely the most talented of the 3.

    i think ggg has better fundamentals, i have not seen enough of kovalev yet so i cant really judge

    matthyse is a standup guy and fan friendly but honestly im a bit dissopointed with his "ability to box"

    Matthysse's skills are underrated.

    If he beats Garcia his resume will be streets ahead of GGG's and Kovalev's.

    However, out of the 3, I think Matthysse has the most raw power.

    i think at this point, they all have an argument for most skilled. gg and kovalev have better technique, but lucas has fought better fighters and what he does brings him success with the way he does it, that takes skill.

    I'd love to see him and Hop. See if Hop still has it.
