What are some of the best current/ recent back to back winning streaks, against top opposition?
These 2 for example:
Oleksandr Usyk:
Glowacki, Mchunu, Hunter, Huck, Briedis, Gassiev
Vasyl Lomachenko:
Martinez, Walters, Sosa, Marriaga, Rigondeaux, Linares
Good stuff! Going to the other end of the star chart and lower level with Yordenis Ugas. Came off 2 years inactivity and back to back losses. Beats highly touted J. James, beat Perrela and Robinson in a 7-0 streak and now sits in a wbc title elimination next weekend. Oscar Valdez has had a nice championship run save for his jaw being wired shut.
Ugas is on a nice little run.Quote:

Eleider Alvarez? Bute, Pascal, Kovalev.
Naoya Inoue‘s career from like his 4th fight
It's a good record but back to back not as solid.Quote:

Ahh, I guess “winning” disqualified
Wangek has to be an obscure to shot caller over short run. Disappointed he's not doing Super Fly 3 which is really under the radar it seems. Nothing wrong with a homecoming fight or two but he and Estrada have another go in them.Quote:

It’s hard to beat Usyk, Loma or Garcia. Santa Cruz is on a pretty good run, but he has a loss to Frampton in there which disqualifies him.
Tony Bellew ---- Masternak, Makabu, Flores, Haye, Haye
I'd say Bellew has to be up there, seems to be becoming a better fighter with every fight.
I'd fancy him against Usyk too as I don't think he's got the punch to keep fat boy away for 12 rounds.
Well, if we could "forgive" a couple of opponents, Crawford's on a pretty good back-to-back-to-back-etc. run himself.
Burns, Gamboa, Beltran, Dulorme, Jean, Lundy (oops), Postol, Molina Jr. (sorry), Diaz, Indongo, Horn
How crazy was that Pac run: starting With the first Morales win, Larios, Morales, Solis, Barrera, Marquez, D. Diaz, De La Hoya, Hatton, Cotto, Clottey, Margarito, Mosley, Marquez.
That was gold. That's where you separate the men from the boys in terms of opposition.
Trying to find something comparable today is quite the challenge.Quote:
