    Top 5 boxers H2H

    as in most dominant & invincible against top opposition


    1- GGG - no weaknesses, nobody can touch him, he's the closest thing to a PERFECT fighter atm.

    If only he had been born in murica or mexico he'd be the P4P king already, disgracefully ducked by an entire division and even some top dogs in other ones

    2 - Wlad - the one and truly HW kingpin, nobody can beat him now that he's perfected his style. eat your heart out brit****s, black supremacists and nostalgists. He might be the HW GOAT when all is said and done

    3- Kovalev - incredibly dominant but his chin seems suspect at times

    4- Rigo - he's levels above everyone in his division, but his fragile glass jaw can send him to the canvas at any time

    5- Mayweather - still undefeated thanks to great defense and being carefully matched (cherrypicking *****), looked vulnerable against caveman Chino

    ----------------------------------------------

    Honorable mention

    6- Pacquiao - KTFO6 still lingers in the air, Pac's still living under the stigma of that roid powered lucky punch , otherwise he'd be above Mayweather based on recent showings. Still one of the best out there even if he's way past it

    You take nuthugging to a new level.

    Careful matchmaking for Mayweather? Did he not just beat the **** out of Canelo a couple years ago? Isn't Golovkin trying to fight Canelo? :-( Didn't he also beat the **** out of Cotto? When Cotto was younger and less battle worn? Now Golovkin is trying to fight him too? :patsch

    Canelo fit the criteria for a Mayweather cherrypick

    slow ass feet, poor stamina, cant cut off the ring, green at the top level and weight drained for good measure

    Floyd saw Canelo's weaknesses in the Trout fight and realized ginger was an easy fight


    Canelo had nothing aside from a puncher's chance

    perhaps if he wasn't a weight drained zombie he would have done better? we'll never know

    btw, GGG would destroy both Canelo and Cotto on the same night, i dont know where you're trying to get with that

    :patsch So who in the division doesn't fit "the criteria" for a Mayweather cherry pick?

    And so what you're saying, Cotto and Canelo are cherry picks for Floyd, but it's ok that GGG is chasing them for a fight? You must rate Floyd's skills much higher than GGG's :think

    1.mayweather
    2.Pacquiao
    3.brook
    4. khan
    5. thurman

    thats my list of top welterweights imo

    however i have khan beating mayweather right now and can see brook and thurman beating pac man(going to get a lot of abuse for this!)

    i can't see anyone beating wlad
    i can't see anyone beating Kovalev(apart from beterbiev)
    i cant see anyone beating GGG
    i can't see anyone beaitng rigo
    i can't see anyone beating Gonzalez

    that is in relation to their respected divison

    Oh ok, I thought you ranked guys higher than them, not just head to head :good

    I disagree about Khan beating Floyd, but can see why some think he can beat him. I also disagree with Thurman and Brook beating Pac.

    Fighters with good speed, stamina, explosiveness and boxing skills

    Pacquiao, Thurman, Lara (maybe Bradley if he could punch)


    lol, GGG would beat Canelo and Cotto easier than Floyd did

    He's trying to get a fight with Cotto because he's usurping the lineal mw belt which rightfully belongs to GGG, and Canelo for the payday, nothing more. We want to see them because both fights would be entertaining and would give GGG more exposure, which he needs if he wants to lure out more top dogs in the future, so the disgraceful, collective ducking of GGG by top fighters finally comes to an end:deal

    Sillyness not to have Wlad in the top 5 on some of these lists.

    Loma or Rigo ahead of Wlad? Get real.

    GGG
    Provodnikov
    Herera
    Garcia
    Estrada



    Marquez , Pacquiao , Froch are great fighters, but I believe that each and every 1 of them is years removed from his prime.

    Bradley should be included in a current top 10 and I believe he is past his prime as well.
