#1GGG. #2 Erislandy Lara #3 Terrence Crawford #4 Anthony Joshua#5 Dmitry Bivol . What are your top favorite fighters of this generation ?
1. GGG ( love him but he is declining) 2. Lomachenko (explains itself) 3. Usyk (character playing a huge part) 4. Pacquiao (although not this version) 5. Inoue ( although he ain't really been in a fight yet)
Loma looked better than the others here in his fight with Rigo, he was exciting against Linares, GGG`s second fight with Canelo was more exciting, I have only seen Usyk once in a few rounds of his fight with Bellew and I prefer GGG and Loma but with Usyk moving up to heavy that could all change, Usyk v the big 3 at heavy could be epic. I saw Manny first when he beat Barrera and he completely outclassed him but it was one sided and wasn`t my favourite fight, Loma was more fantastic v Rigo which left me shocked even though it was a boring fight because Rigo offeed nothing. I watched Manny v Cotto and it didn`t do much for me, I didn`t know much about the tactical side of boxing at the time and wasn`t sure what to make of the bout, Manny struggled early on in that bout. The next bout with Manny I watched was his snoozefest with Floyd, the next fight I watched with him was the Broner fight which again was boring but Manny boxed very well in that one, the Manny era passed me by, I had fallen out of love with the sport during his prime. I have never seen Inoue fight apart from in a couple of film studies and he looks good and explosive, but Loma`s workrate and defense seem more exciting and impressive to me, when I watch Loma I am in a state of awe which means he pips this one for me, but GGG had the most exciting fight against Canelo in their rematch and he`s a boxer I admire, I watched him destroy Brook in another tasty bout two, so either Loma or GGG gets it for me.
What exciting fights has Plant had that can place him second, I watched his last bout and it wasn`t very good or exciting at all, he doesn`t seem that good or really exciting either maybe somethings lost on me.
I would say that AJ could be in my top 4 fav fighters now but he`s not the fourth best fighter P4P in the world at all and his lack of defense put me off him a bit v Povetkin.
Joshua Inoue Spence Uysk Crawford Tyson Fury, Loma and GGG only just miss out though. I would be have to be doing something special to miss any of these guys fighting.
If we are talking active fighters... 1. Pac 2. Wilder 3. AJ 4. Loma 5. Golovkin ... Honorable mentions. Jacobs, Spence, Brook, Porter, Thurman, Lemieux, Saunders, Eubank jr, Usyk, Whyte, Chisora, Fury.
