Who is currently the best fighter in the world?

[Metho_4u]

I just have to ask... are people who have golovkin near the top basing it on skill or resume or what? Because, clearly he's out skilled by lomachenco, Canelo, Spence, Crawford, etc.. and, who has he beaten? Danny? He barely beat him... and the canelo fight, like it or not, was a draw. He has no super high boxing IQ, and he hardly landed a clean punch on Canelo, where Canelo landed many cleaner, better, shots on him. Gaylovekin @ #3 p4p LMAO!

Right now I would have to say Golovkin. He's been champion for a long time. Great KO ratio. He may not be the fastest but his chin, jab and ring IQ make up for it.

[NC Uppercut]

Loma and Bud are the top tier

[SAINTSTEVE]

Probably Golovkin, Mayweather, or Ward although two of them are retired. If not perhaps Lomachenko or Crawford has taken up the mantle.

[Fists_of_Fury]

Well since it didn't say active this is an easy one... Floyd Mayweather Jr.

[Lomadeaux]

Lomachenko, easily.

Easily....

[Outworn]

Yes Lomo is the best. Crookford is overrated. He needs to fight spence or Thurman.

[b Murphington]

Lomachenko?
Spence?
Mikey Garcia?

Beercules.

[Beercules]

Beercules.

I humbly accept this also.

I notice a lot of comments about talent and how fighter B is more talented than fighter A etc. Talent is only one factor in determining who is the best overall fighter. Chin, smarts, power, will to win. Those things are all just as important maybe more so. Look at Marciano. He beat a lot of fighters that were supposed to be more talented than him. He kept himself in great shape, hit like a mule and just did not give up or give his opponent time to breath. Joe Frazier is another example. Tommy Morrison was the opposite. Great puncher hit hard good combinations but he had poor stamina and a weak chin. Let's see if guys like Loma, Spence and Crawford can handle adversity before anointing them #1 P4P.
