Name the top 3 boxers today with all of the following:
1. Hand speed
2. Punching power
3. Great footwork
4. Elite defense
5. Good counter-puncher
Or does anyone have all of these?
Rigo
Canelo
Crawford
Loma chooses to slap a bit or just lacks power and his defence didn't look to good in his last fight
Loma does have power but 75% of his punches are arm punches that aren't meant to hurt so much as land. You almost never see him set his feet and throw hard shots. It's because his offense is predicated on overwhelming his opponent with crazy unconventional angles and high volume. A fighter who can knockout a world class fighter like Roman Gonzalez with the 2 piece Loma landed has power.
As for his defense, you are grading him on a curve. He got hit a bit more last fight than his previous fights, but he still has top-notch footwork (which is his defense).
1. Hand Speed - As much as i hate him this has got to got to Amir Khan
2. Punching Power - Anthony Joshua
3. Great Footwork - Lomachenko
4. Elite Defence - Andre Ward
5. Good Counter Puncher - Canelo
It's interesting to see how you guys have exactly the same top 3
Your list of 5 attributes really narrowed it down lol
Basically, you described the perfect fighter and those 3 are the closest to "perfect" we have right now
Oleksandr Usyk is another.
Usyk to me is a bit overrated. Good solid all-around fighter, but doesn't really have great power or defense so I see him struggling if he ever moves up.
Rigo
Canelo

How does Canelo have great footwork?
