    Fighters with padded resumes, cherry picked opposition, avoiding obvious competition.

    I gotta go with Deontay Wilder. The man has had over 30 fights and has had ONE decent win. He's avoiding big punchers because his handlers know he has a shaky chin. I mean look at his last 5 fights, Jason Gavern :D:D:D:D


    Thoughts?
     
  2. Manny "Pacman " Pacquiao at 147. Total payoff and fraudulent career.

    Khan
    Wilder
    Fury

    all 3 have been coddled with a common theme being opponents with low KO rates. Which, usually means there is a Chin issue and for these 3 fighters that is also confirmed.

    So u believe Khan has been more protected than brook, who has one one win at world level.

    Can't stand fury, complete bellend but his resume would have been enhanced with the haye fight.

    Triple duck is as protected as they come. Pacquiao at 147 comes to mind.. Khan.. Quillin as well.

    :patsch

    How is he protected? There is nobody at 160 willing to fight him, or beat him. It takes a lightheavy weight masquerading as a suppermiddle weight in Ward to give GGG a fight. The very fact that someone who is almost a cruiserweight is the only one that has a chance at beating Golovkin proves how great GGG is.

    Cotto was well protected at 140, not so much at the higher weights.

    GGG is also well protected at 160.

    Yeah and the notches in my bedpost would be enhanced if I slept with Kate Upton but it didn't happen. Look at the KO rates of Fury's opponents. It is laughable. Look at every single Khan fight under Hunter. Nothing but handpicked feather fisted fights. It is pathetic. Why does Khan keep fighting these feather fisted opponents?

    It should be "who has the most protected resume in boxing history"

    Very easy: FLOYD Mayweather.
