[Underboss]

Ok this thread is dedicated to boxing performances which define the essence of the sweet science.. since 2000.

1. Mayweather vs Corrales
2. Barrera vs. Hamed
3. Roy Jones vs. Ruiz
4. Winky Wright v.s Trinidad
5. Calzaghe vs Lacy.



Now keep in mind I'm talking boxing performances, meaning boxers skillfully boxing the stronger oponent. This isn't a list of the best 5 overall performances since 2000. Maybe someone can make a list of the top 5 offensive performances since 2000 that will be kinder to guys who dominate in that fashion.

I know I'm forgetting something here. Give me your list.

Not Hopkins coz Tarver didnt show up
Barrera wasnt AS dominant as peeps remember
Wink was sick but Tito wasnt the force he was
Floyd was perfect probably the best but coz Chico was drained to **** from making weight and the extra danger and giant weight leap Jones made i make His perfomance over Ruiz the best!

1. Mayweather made the big puncher look like a small nothing
2. Barrera stuck to his guns and his boxing skills were exposed to the world
3. Roy Jones made Ruiz look like the weak champ that he was. Made it look to easy
4. Winky gave the most boring boxing performance out of the list.
5. Calzaghe not only won but destroyed Lacy in this upset.

Hopkins/Trinidad and Calzaghe/Lacy were the two most dominating performances of pure boxers over punchers. Both Hopkins and Calzaghe took those guys and reduced them to nothing.

I don't want to hear anyone saying, "well Tito was blown up and blah blah" because Trinidad proved he was a legitimate opponent by utterly blowing away Williams Joppy.

Lacy just got schooled flat out. Calzaghe won my respect big time with that one. He beat Lacy up and humiliated him. Still gotta love Lacy for taking his beating like a man and pressing onward.

Yeah, you forgot Hopkins vs. Trinidad, which, in my opinion, was more impressive than Winky vs. Trinidad, though not by much.

I'd vote Barrera-Hamed no.2 between Hopkins-Trinidad and Winky-Trinidad. Then I'd go with Mayweather followed by Jones and then Calzaghe. I loved Calzaghe's performance, though, this is just a tough list to rank.
