    I'm getting paid (respectably) to do absolutely nothing at the moment, so I'll start this thread.

    What I want to do here is pull up modern fighters, regardless of weightclass, to use as equivalents to Floyd's no longer relevant comp. the concept could be used to apply to other fighters too.

    For example, Kovalev would be the equivalent of Corrales when he fought Floyd. They're two tall, undefeated, top 5 pfp, seek and destroy type fighters.

    I'll add to the list now.
