I'll play. Sorry it took me so long, I was still laughing from the guy who had Rios and Provo top 5 in ring generalship. I wonder if he's aware that part of the definition of ring generalship is to "foresee and neutralize an opponents method of attack" After the Lara fight, the Alvarez selection in the movement category is baffling to me too. He looked completely lost trying to cut the ring off. And Khan's movement is basic but improving IMO.

-Effective offense
1.) Roman
2.) Kova
3.) GGG
4.) Uchiyama
5.) Wlad

(Inoue or Estrada could both have been #5)

-Defence
1.) Floyd
2.) Rigo
3.) Ward
4.) Selby
5.) Loma

Abril deserves a mention, he's just anemic offensively. I'm probably being a tad generous to Selby but he's Welsh so f*ck it.

-Movement (to facilitate offence and defence, so all around movement; ability to get in, get out, cut off the ring, and maintain efficient and effective movement).
1.) Rigo
2.) Roman
3.) Floyd
4.) GGG
5.) Loma

-Ring Generalship
1.) Floyd
2.) Wlad
3.) Ward
4.) Rigo
5.) Roman

The real lineal champ at 140, Mauricio Herrera, deserves a shout too :deal

Cheers mate :good

The Welsh Mayweather is certainly massively underrated among the slick operators in the sport. I'm half Welsh myself but I still hope he loses to Gradovich next month. Evgeny is probably my 2nd favorite active fighter and I can't say I love watching Selby fight (though his ability is undeniable). I think Evgeny will be up against it though :verysad
