    Everyone gives Pacquiao a lot of props for beating Barrera but Jones beat a unbeaten Barrera in spectacular fashion

    mentally or physically ready? because if you're trying to say a 41 year old, coming off a loss with 2 years of ring rust was physically ready for a young, prime, confident AJ, you're mental.

    You're wrong anyway, but that would make you monumentally wrong

    @George Crowcroft

    The best win in recent memory is Usyk absolutely schooling Gassiev.

    The best this century is Pacquiao destroying, annihilating and embarrassing a 29 year Marco Antonio Barrera who was in the middle of one of the most dominant reigns in the history of boxing.

    How is Ward Froch on your list yet a mid 30s Calzaghes 9-3 near shut out of Kessler isn't?

    Pavlik Taylor 1
    Hatton Tszyu
    Forrest Mosley
    Pascal Dawson

    Are some more that spring to mind..

    I think that both Froch and Ward were better than Kessler. But it's good shout, as were the others

    True, but plenty of fighters were not bums after taking their first loss. And when Jones beat Barrera at that point Barrera wasn't even a HOF level fighter. He had 1 semi decent win over McKinney. When Pacquiao beat Barrera it was when Barrera had established himself as ATG and he was in the middle of the best run at Featherweight in many, many, many decades.

    You can claim that if you want but just wasting your finger strength.

    “Bu.. But I just checked boxrec doe and it says..”


    I don’t give a ****. It also says Lewis vs Holyfield 1 was a ****ing draw along with Fury vs Wilder. So no... your boy did not beat GGG. And 80% agree with me.

    Ward yes. Froch no.

    Carl aged better sure but he wasn't as athletic or as quick as peak Kessler & nor was he as fundamentally sound... Quite sloppy in fact! A twice defeated Kessler beat him 7-5 in fact... He then had 14 months out & never really got his mojo back.. Calzaghes win deserves to be on your list. Kessler was a brilliant SMW on his day..

    & don't forget Calzaghe beat him when he was 35 too! & he didn't have to constantly headbutt and use excessive clinching to do it.. Which caused Kessler sight issues during the Ward fight.

    Kessler was a better boxer. Carl had a longer deeper career though.. Peak for peak Kessler beats him most times IMO

    I know you ARE that dumb to not fully get what I was saying. The Official result, especially nowadays, isn’t as important as WHAT ACTUALLY HAPPENED and the public’s opinion. Again... 70-80% feel GGG should still have the belts.

    GGG = People’s champ
