Essential The Official Boxing Random Thoughts Thread...All boxing heads ENTER.

[T.H.E.GOD]

I think Maidana would be a tougher fight than Bradley. I don't ever want to see Floyd fight Bradley other than Floyd giving him the Marquez treatment for a whole 12 rounds to give that man his first L. Bradley is completely over rated to me. Bradley wouldn't get passed Garcia or Khan.

I think the only reason Floyd is scared. I just think he knows he wouldn't look as good against someone like Pac even if he wins.. Floyd would always look like he's running the entire 12 rounds even and picking his shots into a "boring" win and no matter what, he would get looked as being scared even with a ugly W. Floyd aint about to exchange blows with that man but then again, Ariza aint in that corner anymore. … pacman been looking shaky ever since Ariza left that corny baby….

I never said top 5 that was Amare right hook

Ward gets #2 for cleaning out 168....Swift cleans out 140 N gets #10??

Your criteria for P4P includes things these nikkas did years ago N doesn't really penalize them for Ls that's where we differ

Where would you put Swift?

.

Bradley would box the shyt out of Garcia and SD him. And, he'd UD Khan widely, can't see Khan winning more than 2 rounds.
Bradley would give floyd his best fight in quite some time

Where would you put Swift?

5-7 at the very lowest

25 yrs old undefeated WBC/WBA should be undisputed TWICE, cleaned out the division.... winning twice as the underdog...hasn't ducked anybody

I'm not putting nikkas who caught recent L's ahead of that

Nah the was for that line of thinking of fighters like Froch or JMM on P4P ahead of undefeated fighters...while they recently lost N looked like shyt in victory...not directed at you

I got no problem with you list for maybe Manny

My line of thinkin is he was #2...loses to Bradley then loses to JMM...2 Ls in a row only drops you 3 spots to #5?? cuz that Rios W doesnt do anything for you

Ultimate boxing paradox right now.

Actually if you drop manny to seven sergio at 5 and swift at 6 that looks as good as it;s gonna get

That's pretty much what I got breh

Floyd
Ward
Timmy
Rigo
Sergio
Swift
Manny

Sergio hasn't lost so he stays top 5....Rigo high at 4 but his amateur pedigree, skills, N W over top 5 Donaire trumps his weak resume

I haven't finished the last slots of my list tho

Late to the party, but Dan Rafael dropped some serious heat in his chat on Friday:

* He expects Canelo's next fight to be vs. Angulo
* GGG's fight in April will most likely be vs Kirkland or Geale
* Garcia vs Guerrero is being discussed
* Chad Dawson could be moving to GBP
* Donaire likely to fight in April vs Nicholas Walters
* Negotiations have started to try and make Bradley vs Pacquiao for an April PPV (Bradley vs JMM 2 is not on the table).
* Wladimir K. wants to fight the winner of Stiverne-Areola 2
* Lara is being discussed in a rematch vs Molina on the Canelo undercard
* Hopkins vs Shumenov in March or April
* He expects Stevenson vs Kovalev to happen in 2014...but they definitely will fight a different opponent first before meeting up.
* 21 of the top 25 viewed fights were on HBO. HBO's numbers down 2%, Showtime's up 21% for the year.
* Mikey Garcia vs JC Burguos, Jan 25
* Larry Merchant was his same ole quirky self after the Broner-Maidana fight: "From humping to thumping, from billions to thousands, from performance artist to con artist, from the next Mayweather to the next Berto?"

Canelo is a chump and a fraud.

Pound For Pound Rankings with explanations for the ones that I assume would likely get the most reactions:

1. Floyd Mayweather
2. Wladimir Klitschko - been dominating the heavyweight division for over a decade and hasn't lost since 2004; regardless of the state of the division that can't be ignored
3. Andre Ward
4. Timothy Bradley
5. Guillermo Rigondeaux
6. Danny Garcia
7. Sergio Martinez - his inactivity is why I have him at a lower ranking
8. Juan Manuel Marquez
9. Gennady Golovkin
10. Adonis Stevenson - he has been owning the Light-Heavyweight division and barely breaking a sweat doing it
