Worst P4p #1 Fighter Ever?

And until his first and only career ending upset defeat to thirty year old Pedro Flores, southpaw WBA Light Flyweight Champion Yoko Gushiken was considered by Harold Lederman to be the P4P best. I watched a number of his bouts commented on by Steven Bass and Lederman on Cavalcade of Boxing (sponsored by the Tonight's Boxing Program newsletter published by the legendary Flash Gordon] and that case could have definitely made that Gushiken (with his distinct afro] was indeed the best during his title reign.

Miguel Canto was also a frequently displayed competitor on Bass and Lederman's syndicated program. He truly was El Maestro.

 

Baldomir wasn't Ring's FOTY in 2006. He would have been had he defeated Mayweather, but that didn't happen so Pac won by virtue of two wins over Morales and a win over Larios.

 

Probably Mosley, though that first win over DLH was impressive so I can see why he was given consideration over RJJ in late 2000.

 

Indeed, amigo, indeed

 

As a big Loma fan myself, that insanity baffles me entirely. I can appreciate what he's brought to the table without trying to compare him to someone who's pro accomplishments were on another planet all together.

 

I cringe remembering some people who, admittedly, might have been trolling, but there were actual 10+ pages threads on various forums, INTENSE debates about Loma vs Armstrong, Robinson, etc. Comedy.

 

Agreed. I will be putting my money on the underdog John Ryder this weekend at +1050! 20 bones earns $230 on the money line and if converted into a 2leg Parley $20 wins $440.

 

Loma, the guy is a good fighter but has been vastly overhyped. I see similar hype with Inoue who has still not beaten anyone that elite.

I feel Mike Tyson will be mentioned by many but he was wrecking decent heavies in his prime years and making it look easy.

 

Lomachenko did nothing close to jumping up 2 weight classes, having a couple warm ups, and beating a top five pfp fighter/first ballot hof fighter.
