    Who do you class as an A-class fighter today?

    You can differentiate with A*, A+, A, A- etc if you really want to. I just labelled Vasyl Lomachenko an A* fighter in another thread. It's easier to just generalize the A-class category though, you don't have to go into the finer details of a grade within a grade.

    Tyson Fury
    Oleksandr Usyk
    Saul Alvarez
    Vasyl Lomachenko

    Just a few. Are the likes of Callum Smith, Errol Spence Jr. and Terence Crawford proven A-class? Manny Pacqiauo was A-class, but is he still? Same goes for Sergey Kovalev and Gennady Golovkin?

    Crawford definitely is A class for the same reason usyk : he demonstrated he is the best at his class when he went undisputed. I think what constitutes an A class fighter is activity , consistency and how dominant they can be at their peak.

              Lennox lewis is one of the best heavyweights ever ;was knocked out by 2 B/C+++ level fighters

              Juan manuel marquez (imo the goat mexican) lost to a bum who has 4 wins and 14 losses in his first fight

              I can go on all day to show you how flawed and moronic your logic is

                  Only Unbeaten fighters qualify as A/A+

                  Canelo gets a pass by me because he lost to an ATG at a very young age and at 152.

                  Lomachenko was beat by SALIDO... Pacquiao before PEDs lost to tomato cans and was knocked down by a jab.

                  And you should know that at HW any punch could be the last one you receive due to the force/weight

                    LMAO Muhammed Ali is a B grade fighter and Sugar Ray Robinson must be D- by your standards with 19 losses.
