      One of the most, if not the most underrated fighter in the game today.

      It looks like he will fight Darchinyan in Dec on the undercard of Mares-Agbeko II...Check him out.

      I definitely will. Thanks.

        but lets see:

        Mayweather of course
        B-Hop
        Andre Ward
        Chad Dawson

        after that then it is a BIG DROP OFF DEFENSIVELY:
        Dmitry Pirog (he actually has a very slick and clever style defensively, it is not perfect but he does it well and can make people miss and can avoid big punches very well)

        Andriy Kotelnik
        Adrien Broner (a much more WATER DOWN VERSION OF MAYWEATHER style defensively, haven't perfected it yet but does it well enough to avoid serious damage)

        Timothy Bradley (he uses a TON OF HEAD MOVEMENTS and he does a good job ducking underneath punches, can be very hard to hit cleanly)

        Hank Lundy -is one of the best at Shoulder Rolling and Countering but he gets very sloppy at times and has holes in his defense and he gets caught

        also: Joshua Clottey, Arthur Abraham they have that SHELL DEFENSE that is hard to Penetrate, unfortunately for them they don't throw enough punches back and neither have great footwork but those Shells are hard to get past
        No love for Miguel Vazquez?

              Whatever you do, don't watch the Cermeno fights first. It's very hard to look good against Cermeno. Because, Cermeno is pretty rough, dirty type of fighter.

              Watch his other fights first and then catch Cermeno if you would like.
