    Who are the 4 kings of this Era?

    We all know the golden age 4 kings: Leonard, Hagler, Hearns, Duran.

    Who will be remembered as the kings of this era?

    Mayweather
    Pacquiao
    Cotto
    ...
    Who's the fourth? Canelo/GGG??? Ward??? Probably a little too early to say. Let's discuss.

      As things stand right now I'd say -

      Floyd Mayweather
      Manny Pacquiao
      Wladimir Klitschko

      4th spot is up for grabs

      Roman Gonzalez, Sergey Kovalev, GGG, Andre Ward, Saul Alvarez

      It depends, things could change drastically in the next couple of months so we will wait and see.

      *Edit -
      I think its too soon for some guys like Terence Crawford to get the name on that list but they might in the next 2/3 years not sure how you work this all out though.

        Not saying he is but why not if he gets past kovalev?? He got through the toughest era of super middle weights unscathed. He's still young...

          I think the fact he has Cotto in the list is more funny, I don't like Ward but I can accept that he could easily creep into that spot.

                Wladimir has been by far the most dominant but they won't give it to him imo. They'll say he dominated a weak era of heavyweights and mention his early tko's when the division was fizzling out.

                    I'd still say his career overall is by far stronger than Cotto's and the other guys I listed for me it would be hard to top what Wladimir did but yeah you might be right they will try to belittle his achievements.
