Now that Floyd has gone and Manny is fighting Australian pickle farmers, who is the best active fighter ? (Indongo will join that list soon enough)
I think it is either GGG or Lomachenko , both are better than everyone in their weight classes. GGG is unified champion for a long time and unbeaten. Lomachenko has unbelievable skills and is a 2-weight world champion after 9 fights. I would say that GGG is the king and Lomachenko is the prince. I don't think that the other fighter's in the poll have the resume's to be considered as the king of boxing. Andre Ward will probably retire after the Kovalev fight , so i don't count him.
GGG's stock dropped heavily in his last outing. Lomachenko doesn't have a fleshed out resume quite yet, as good as it already is, but I'll bet my entire nutsack that he'll stand on top in years to come. For now, maybe it's Ward.
Between Lomachenko and Ward/Kovalev winner. Lomachenko looks great but doesn't have the resume to match Ward or Kovalev. His skills alone keep him towards the top though.
GGG, Spence and Aj are all too far above their comp (all of boxing included) the only fighter worthy talent wise is Loma. I just have such a hard time accepting him struggling with salido so bad. For ANY ELITE fighters salido has always been treated like a small HB. Going 12 back and forth rounds, having saildo really unable to defend himself in rounds 11 and 12, failure to score a single KD was horrific. He never did everything to get him back in the ring, WTFW ? He really should've been 100% willing to rematch him for FREE. Of course he's going to smoke him now, but those losses are rematch immediately, personal and professional reasons
The Kovalev - Ward fight was supposed to crown the P4P number 1 but it was too controversial a decision,. Lomachenko is the P4P number 1 and will be for a very long time you need to deal with that. He's most talented fighter in the sport CLEARLY.
Crawford is not in the top 4 kinda how Likes boy Drenlou isn't in the top 4 of his precious Likes table that he's obsessed about
