    So many stupid and politically-motivated lists out there. I usually hate these top 10 lists. But I was shocked by how EASY this one would be to compile. All you need is a little Boxing knowledge/experience, and some time to review the footage.



    So here it is, Casuals be dammed; unbiased and faithful to the original intent (if all men were of equal size):

    1) Lomachenko
    2) Fury
    3) Usyk
    4) Golovkin
    5) Alvarez
    6) Crawford
    7) Inoue
    8) Spence
    9) Wilder
    10) Garcia

      Good list to me but you will catch hell from Canelo fans especially the red ones for having GGG ahead of him. Since I think he won two close fights with Canelo. I agree with where you put him. Ursk is done with cruiserweight and should be ranked in the weight class he fights in which is heavyweight. He will probably be weighing in at 225 pounds now. Same with Mikey who fights at 147 now so he should be ranked as a welterweight. I think Spence would beat Crawford. Inoue is very high on my list. I have no heavyweights in my top 10 including Usyk who I consider a heavyweight now and no longer a cruiserweight. I think there are too many great smaller boxers for me to have heavyweights in my top 10 but everybody's list is different. It's all just opinion and not fact unless two guys actually fight each other.I think everybody has a right to their own top 10 list. No two lists will ever be the same and nobody's list is better or worse just different.

            I dunno... hmm, let me think... was something not said in the O.P. about this being talent-based and not political? Skill is all that matters. This United Colors of Benneton.

            Sorry, no quotas here. This isn't college or corporate America, where you get to bypass 100 more qualified candidates because you have more melatonin. This is MERIT based. You have to earn it.


            Just think about how stupid your comment was. For hundreds of years Blacks were happily serving Whites in bondage. They still would be if Whites didn't free them. Can you imagine Whites ever willingly subjecting themselves to that shame? Of course not. There have been many phenomenal Black fighters. But they have been making up for lost time. If race really matters to you, refer to historical P4P lists. You will find countless great Black and Latino fighters at the top.

            Loma and Usyk and Ukranian. Fury is Irish. Golovkin's father is Russian. Canelo's ancestry is Northern Spanish, similar to the Celtic peoples of Europe. All warrior people. And with proud cultures and history. So if you are looking for an explanation, there it is: genetics.

            Not let's get off the stupid topic of race, and get back to what we are all here for: BOXING.

                All good points. I definitely gave GGG most rounds in the first fight, and had him ahead by two or three in the rematch. Just because the judges fooked up doesn't mean we should.

                Until we see Usyk at Hw, I'll rank him based on his Cw performances.

                  Damn right. Mikey eliminated himself last fight Pac earned it by beating the hell out of Broner and beating Thurman and looking great. Pac would beat Mikey at any weight from 135 to 147.
