My top 10 must watch fighters

Couple years ago, yeah. But pretty much everybody favors Inoue over Roman now.

Golovkin
Lomachenko
Usyk
Kovalev with neutral judges, referee, boxing commission
Bivol
Sirenko
Teslenko
Klitschko and Joshua, very exciting fight and the rematch will be even better
SOB does not count as he cheats, owns the judges, referee, boxing commission, etc., so I can't stand watching him wrestle, headbutt, low blows, esp. testicle blows, elbows, SOB told on himself, he said that neutral judges would be unfair to him, yes, I understand that, he does not want neutral judges

 

Obviously, Roman Gonzalez deserves to be in there. He's pound for pound and every fight is action packed. And Orlando Salido is the modern Gatti. He's got about seven classics to his name. Plus, Gvozdyk and Beterbiev are the current wrecking balls in the sport.

 

I love the smell of rage in the morning.

 

Garcia and Thurman I see as comparable. They strike me as Cotto/Bradley level. And after watching Garcia coast to victory with Broner I doubt his killer instinct.

 

Is Garcia Danny or Mikey?

 

Wilder
GGG
Joshua
Mayweather
Spence

 

Mikey didn't really go after Broner so much as he stood in the same area and waited for Broner to make mistakes to counter all night. He stalked and applied pressure but he really didn't attack much. When he did, it was very cautious and consisted of one or two punches instead of sustained combinations.

Mikey is from the "don't hit me" school of boxing not the "I'm going to hit you" school of boxing. Mikey has a lot of trouble when people actually trade with him. He goes into a shell to minimize damage instead of firing back to win the exchange. Salido had a lot of success when he decided to just take Mikey's punches to give some punches of his own. Broner, despite being the superior athlete has inferior balls and wouldn't take those kinds of risks, but even he had success when he'd change the range and fight inside. Mikey doesn't have much of an inside game. He looks great when he can dictate the pace and range, but take him out of his comfort zone and he struggles.

Broner was in complete ***** mode the other night and if Mikey had bothered to take himself out of second gear he should have knocked Broner clean out. But he was content to outpoint him if it meant that he wouldn't have to take risks or get hurt himself. I gotta' say, Maidana isn't half the fighter that Garcia is but the people who are saying that he put a worse beating on Broner are correct.
