    Why shakur? he hasn't done jack****.

    The only one there who has done something meaningful is Teo.

    He was the unified and lineal champion at 130. He faced the other top 3 super-featherweights back-to-back and dominated all of them in Herring, Valdez, and Conceiçāo. Add onto that the titles he's won at 126 and 135 as well as an Olympic Silver Medal and it's quite arguable that he's the most accomplished fighter on that list (or at least the most consistent). And even if you think he's boring it's impossible to deny he's incredibly talented and highly skilled.

    You mean the 5 divas?

    What has boxing come to, when we look at the fab four of the 80s to this nonsense today.

    To answer your question - of the 5 divas, I'd barely say Teofimo and I don't think he is that good - Shakur might have a higher ceiling. I sincerely hope like Usyk - a LW comes from nowhere and proves to be the best

    Sorry, who? Who are those guys you mention? they must be important people there in your neighbourghood.

    Silver medal you say? He couldnt even win the gold medal.

    First thing he should do is to fight someone with pulse. It would be interesting if this fighter with pulse had more than 1 week to prepare the fight too. Then, maybe, depending on the outcome, we can start mentioning his name in the same sentence we use to mention Teo.

    Based on resume - which should always be the defining factor in greatness/legacy discussions - at the current time it is clearly Lopez.

    on the eye test, I would say that Lopez is the most mercurial in the fact that he probably is the best head to head when he’s on his game, but can also be very underwhelming when he’s isn’t.
