Both are first ballot HOFers. Usyk has already attained ATG status at cruiserweight. Loma, however, falls well short of ATG status at lightweight....
Stevenson is an excellent young fighter, and if he continues to refine his ability to transition from defense (where he's superb) to offense...
Yup. Berchelt, while certainly a competent fighter, was always grossly overrated by many on here. The notion that he would have ever beaten...
Of the two British bums, I'll go with Brook (though with no confidence at all).
Reasonable post that confirms my central contention (the kid is hardly "overrated")
If we're simply relying on the "eye test" at 168lbs, Plant looks more talented and arguably has the best win (Uzi). Indeed, Saunders, who I...

Butaev, while defensively responsible, can certainly be hit. Besputin, who has very quick hands and feet, certainly had success against him....
I'm certain that there are. Nor is this site lacking in posters who have an anti-European/white bias. Likewise, there are posters with an...
