    Wow CST80, you're not sold on Inoue's power?

    Of course I am, he got an 8, that's pretty high, few have Beterbiev, Tyson, Wilder-esque power, but Inoue's is close.

    AJ
    Punching power 8
    Speed 6
    Chin 5
    Offensive boxing skills 6
    Defensive boxing skills 6

    I'm going to steal @CST80 format since it's easier.

    Loma
    Punching power 6.5
    Speed 9
    Chin ? It hasn't been tested
    Offensive boxing skills 10
    Defensive boxing skills 10

    Crawford
    Punching power 8.5
    Speed 8
    Chin 7.5
    Offensive boxing skills 9
    Defensive boxing skills 8

    Usyk
    Punching power 5
    Speed 9
    Chin 8.5
    Offensive boxing skills 8
    Defensive boxing skills 8

    Inoue
    Punching power 10
    Speed 8
    Chin ? Hasn't been tested.
    Offensive boxing skills 9.5
    Defensive boxing skills 6.5

    Canelo
    Punching power 8
    Speed 9
    Chin 10
    Offensive boxing skills 9.5
    Defensive boxing skills 10

    GGG
    Punching power 9
    Speed 5
    Chin 10
    Offensive boxing skills 9
    Defensive boxing skills 7

    Other categories that should be added might be ability to adapt and ability to bully and just be a mean son of a ***** like Crawford. That's what makes Crawford special imo. A lot of these guys have better pure offense/defense skills but Crawford has something none of these guys have.

    Punch power Loma most of Loma`s shots are about 5/10, he likes speed and workrate so throwing light punches and not loading up means he can get loads out there quick, but he sneaks in hard shots now and then to catch fighters off guard, those hard shots I`d say are around 8/10 but the shot that finished Linares was a 10. Crawford is a 10/10 puncher, knocking out a tough welter in Horn proves how much harder he hits at the weight compared to Manny. Usyk punches like a cruiser Loma, 7/10. Inoue is 10/10 GGG IS 9/10.
    Speed:
    Loma 9/10
    Crawford 9/10
    Uysk 8/10 because he`s heavier P4P 9/10 I feel.
    Inoue 9/10 mainly hand speed
    Canelo 9/10 because of hand speed and reflexes, foot speed a lot slower
    GGG 8/10
    Chin:
    Loma 7/10 because of the knockdown against the bigger Linares
    Crawford ?
    Uysk Have to see when AJ or Wilder hits him.
    Inoue ?
    Canelo 10/10
    GGG 10/10
    Offensive skills:
    Loma 10/10
    Crawford 10/10
    Uysk 9.5/10
    Inoue 9/10
    Canelo 9/10
    GGG 9.5/10
    Defensive Skills:
    Loma 10/10
    Crawford 9.5/10
    Uysk 8.5/10?
    Inoue 8/10?
    Canelo 9/10
    GGG 9/10

    GGG`s defense is brilliant. Canelo hit GGG as hard as he was being hit by the Russian.

    Crawford doesn't have better defense than Canelo. You should know better than that since you watch so many analysis vids. GGG's speed is also not an 8. He's much slower than all of those guys. Other than that not bad.

    GGG's defense is solid. It's not as bad as people used to make it out to be. But he gets hit by some massive clean shots.

    AJ`s hands are fast his offensive skills are good he throws very good combos and his defense is better than 6/10, you`re getting AJ mixed up with Frank Bruno, his chin is stronger than Franks`s and any fighter that Povetkin knocked out except Takam.

    I think his scale is just different. He gave Loma and Crawford a 5/10 on punching power. I think he's less reluctant to give out 10's. I gave Loma a 10 for defense for example, but if we're comparing it to Mayweather, than I wouldn't have gave him a 10. Just like if we're comparing Inoue's power to Julian Jackson I wouldn't give him a 10 yet. Maybe at 118 he really is going to stop everyone in 1 round lol.

    I meant Canelo. Canelo's defense is much better than Crawfords.

    I think Floyd would have missed a lot of shots against Loma and Loma would have caught Floyd more than any of his other opponents ever did.

    Nah. Loma's style wouldn't fair well against Floyd.
