Must-see fighters By Dan Rafael

I liked Mayweather. I consider myself a fan of his. But in no way are his fights 'must watch'. They are neither action packed or exciting (with few exceptions). I like the events obviously, but more often than not I'm disappointed in the show.Ahh, come on Laced. Everyone has a reason to watch Money May. For me its the showmanship, events, and masterful boxer.
Vladdy KO should KO dudes sooner, I agree. He toyed with Povetkin and should have ended him by round 10. He does however have 51 KO in 61 wins and hits like a mule.
Ward faces the best and is unbeaten since like age 6 when his father beat that ass...lol. He is a master technician in the ring and all class outside the ring. He is our last Gold Medal winner till next Olympics and deserves our support in the States.
Khan has everything you want in a fighter except the glass jaw but I always watch him for his amazing skill level.


I don't care how hard Wlad hits. He's a 1-2 fighter. Jab, jab, jab, grab, grab, and then when the opponent is all but done from taking the 30 pounds extra weight on his shoulders, Wlad throws the right hand and the guy can't stand up. I don't recall one single rewatchable fight of his. Even his highlight KO reel is brutal to get through.
But he's probably the most dominant champion in the sport today, so I'll give him that. But he's certainly not must watch.
I think Khan's glass chin adds to why he's must watch.Comment

Froch is a good one,,,
Danny has the potential to be in some snoozefests,, He has been lucky to be matched up with morales, maidana, khan etc....
Danny a really good fighter, but if the other guy doesnt bring the fight, it will be a snoozefest... mayorga or khan would be exciting vs pretty much anyone, but think if danny fought alexander or pauli i think its a total snoozefestComment

Yeah, I have a personal preference for Danny Garcia - so that was just a personal touch. I do agree with what you said about him.Froch is a good one,,,

I'd say though, that his pre-fight press conferences are must watch.
You know, because Angel is there.Comment

See, I got to watch the Garcia "brothers." I love Mikey and Swift's fights. Those dudes can flat out scrap. Every fighter has a stinker or two. Just because the Pac vs Rios fight stunk doesn't mean both aren't must see tv.Froch is a good one,,,

Vladdy KO has had some stinkers over the years,true Laced. He should put dudes away. Sometimes I even think that he is carrying dudes to give the German tv and fans some rounds to watch. But...he does have some highlight reel KO's too !!!
Vlad vs Byrd II
Vlad vs Peter II
Vlad vs Chagaev was a destruction
Vlad vs Haye was a highly skilled champion beating an overmatched excellent HW in Haye.
My favorite Vladdy KOs are over: Brock,Austin, Mercer, Mormeck,and Thompson II.
He should have KO'd Povetkin by round 10. I think he carried him the final 2 rounds to set-up a rematch if Povetkin wins 4-5 staright fights against good HWs...then Vlad can get another $23 million to fight him in Russia.
