    The funny thing is Lemuix fights just like Brandon Rios IMO.

        Can't be bothered to find the "Danny Jacobs wouldn't be top 10 at WW p4p" quote.

          What is there to 'lul' about? I'm talking about Golovkin fans in general, especially the ones on here. You obviously lack the common sense to see that though.

          And what's wrong with my comment about Jacobs not being better than anyone in the top 10 at welterweight, P4P?

          How about you actually put forward a mature argument instead of posting vague, childish playground jabs?

            So just a childish playground jab at all Golovkin fans except for you?

            Not sure what language this makes sense in.

            Let's see this list of 10 magnificent WWs, now that Floyd has retired and Pac is presumably still heading back to 140 or retiring himself. Just for the lulz.

            How about you actually put forward a mature argument instead of posting vague, childish playground jabs?
            How about you actually set this example and talk about boxers and boxing, instead of making idiotic generalizations about boxing fans?

              That's a major issue with this division. So much talent but very few guys fighting each other. We've seen a bit of continuity with Porter/DA/Khan/Brook, now if we can get Khan v Porter/Brook or Thurman v DA/Porter, then the division really starts to liven up.

              It's so weird that Bradley, probably the best guy in the division and he isn't being spoken about. We need Bradley/Khan and Bradley/Brook.

                lol pedantic, sensitive little girl.

                It's obviously not aimed at all Golovkin fans, I was speaking in general. But you've already pointed that out and made some big deal of it, eh?

                The sentence you quoted didn't make sense, I made a typo and corrected it before you did, you absolute ******. This isn't an English lesson anyway, you knew what I meant.

                I already posted what I think is roughly the current top 10 at welterweight, look back in the thread. I have talked about boxers and boxing plenty, you just decided to cherry-pick a couple of posts in which I didn't. I'm guessing you done that without realising? You don't seem too bright.

                  Technically Cotto and Canelo are fighting at middleweight and if you wanna be pedantic and call them middleweights, then whatever, but you get my point.

                  I wouldn't say being ranked top 10 necessarily means anything, they were top 10 when the weight class wasn't as strong as it is now, they've never really been considered top fighters.

                  The current welterweight division is absolute miles ahead of middleweight, it's not even up for debate really.

                  The current welterweight top 10 looks something like this:

                  Pac, Thurman, Brook, Porter, Bradley, Khan, Danny, Maidana, Chaves, Spence

                  There's one A level guy there, with potentially 3-4 more breaking into the A class. What about middleweight? Other than Golovkin, which standout guys are there?
                  But it's not miles ahead, there's already two A level guys at middleweight, with 2 more possibly breaking through.

                  All those guys have a long way to go, they have potential but you can't rate divisions on potential.

                  Both divisions are good, your opinion doesn't change that fact.

                  But to each his own.

                    There must not be enough Eastern Euros in the division for Freedom's liking.

                      Thank you for your expert boxing analysis. You're an asset to the site.

                      As for the thread, I don't think WW is a weak division. You do have guys like Pac and Maidana whose futures are in question. Guys like Brook, Thurman and Khan who don't seem interested in fighting the best. Garcia who's still growing into the weight. With Floyd gone and Pac soon to follow, there isn't that one guy who really jumps out. Or a bunch of top guys willing to fight each other and find that one guy.
