      Its horrible how underrated and underappreciated Chocolatito is.
      I'd not hesitate to put him as #1 by some distance. Truly one of the best at those baby weights I've seen.

      Boxing did this guy so dirty.

        lol @ including Gabriela Fundora. In a list of the top women pressure fighters? Sure. But not among the men.

        Canelo did pick up elements of Floyd’s style and in my opinion that is when he was at his best. Once he began borrowing from Golovkin he started to load up on his punches looking to land one big shot at a time, and his boxing has devolved ever since.

          Lomachenko I think is a very good pressure fighter, Chocolotatito is way underrated

            Not a horrid list, although I will admit putting my man Beterbiev #1 appeals to me. I agree with everyone above me: If you underate Gonzalez as a all time GREAT as a pressure fighter, you just did not watch boxing. He dominated a set of divisions when those divisions were as deep as they have ever been by NEVER taking a step backwards unless he had to. What an all time amazing warrior he was.
