Never heard of em :-)
Brook does not compare to these fighters
Exactly, Brook went up and got beaten up then went down again. Pac, Leonard, and Duran went up and they were still demonic.
I never said Brook compares to those fighters. I helped Master understand the history of boxing.
Those fighters are an example of why it's NOT illogical for a fighter two weights below to be tougher than contenders/ex champions at the weight the champion fights at.
Hope this helps.

Illogical, but if it keeps you happy to think it does, then so be it.

No it does not help, you are in the wrong but will not admit that Brook was nothing compared to real middleweights he has faced.

All the fighters you mentioned, and you could include a few others as well, worked their way up through the weight divisions. Brook had fought exclusively at welter and jumped up to middleweight in one fell swoop to challenge one of the best MW's in history out of the blue. Big difference. Once he gets beaten he goes right back down. Again... big difference. Not taking anything away from the man. But it was a bad experiment gone wrong. Brook couldn't hurt GGG, and they both knew it.

Re: Vasyl Lomachenko is P4P #1
..... and while we're destroying myths, no amount of snake-oil salesmanship is going to convince me or most boxing fans that Lomachenko, with an 8-1 professional record, should be boxing's p4p #1. He may have more natural ability than anyone in boxing right now. That much we can argue about. But leapfrogging him over the top of fighters who have actually built a career already, many with plenty of quality wins? I'll pass on that one for the time being.

Calzaghe just jumped in and threw a ton of punches. He had great stamina but his punches were more pitty Pat punches and his footwork and defense weren't particularly great.
Even if you think that calzaghe was one of the best, brilliant doesn't describe his fighting style. That would be more comparable to saying that Chavez was a brilliant fighter.
And ward would at least 9 rounds against calzaghe. Probably more but at least 9.
He was an extraordinary fighter, with a unique style. Sure he could be sloppy, sure he didn't hit the hardest, but how are you going to take rounds off him on a consistent enough basis to win a 12 round fight? Impossible. It isn't ballet, you don't win the fight based on the grace of your hook, or the snazzy way you roll after a punch, it's about hitting that man again and again and making sure he cannot land as much on you. Andre Ward with his 30 punches a round would be dazzled by Calzaghe. Ward is very limited. Calzaghe wouldn't give him the chance to breathe. Ward would make it ugly, but Calzaghe would be on him like a mental mosquito again and again and again. Ward struggled against a plodder in his last fight, put him in with someone with output, speed and intelligence and you will see him undone.
Ward is one of the top talents in the sport in the last 20 years. He did himself a disservice by not fighting for so long but he absolutely dominated a stacked 168 division. And for the record, did it much more impressively than calzaghe. You are far underrating ward and far overrating calzaghe.
I just can't take somebody seriously who says that Ward is a limited fighter.
And for the record, calzaghe would have ran into a huge shot from kovalev eventually and been put out. His defense wasn't good enough and kovalev has fight ending power.
Honestly...
Not sure where to start..
You are taking the 38 year old Calzaghe vs a prime Kov?
Really what evidence do you have of J C being put to sleep by anyone? The fucker got sparked twice and both times was firing back on the way down. And that was when he was 37 and 38. FFS.
Honestly if a proper boxing nerd thinks Kov would have got close to Cal in his prime then there is something wrong or its an agenda. You can't be that wrong.

True enough Tito. But I'm not a man prone to hyperbole but I don't see the sense in pitting Ancient Joe that fought B Hop and RJJ and having him against a prime killer like Kov.
Maybe you Americans and Honorary Americans didn't know but JC was well past his best by the time he beat Lacy like a drum. Its all about perspective. The JC we saw was not the guy that fought Hopkins etc. He was done. What I'm saying is watch a 25-29 year old Calzaghe.

I think Calzaghe was always great, but I think the more refined, less powerful Calzaghe would have outboxed his younger self over 12. The experience and adaptability added to his greatness IMO. Calzaghe was vintage between Lacy and Kessler.

That's often something I think about Miles. But what if JC had a proper coach? His dad was reading coaching manuals and staying one week ahead of Joe. I often felt that Joe was held back by his Dad's skill/ability/experience. Imagine JC with Roach or Hunter.

I just rewatched Calzaghe/Eubank and maybe you are right too. He was pretty powerful in those days. It's hard to tell, isn't it? Just a really great fighter who had the intelligence to understand his changing physicality. Against Kessler he was more delicate, but Kessler then was also much better than the later incarnation of himself too with the injuries. Think I will rewatch all of Calzaghe's fights again to observe how he evolved. Either way, to be throwing 1000 punches a fight at 36 is superhuman. Even Pac slowed down much much more a while before then.

Re: Vasyl Lomachenko is P4P #1
These are all subjective, opinion based lists, but I can see three solid arguments for GGG, Loma, and Ward being ranked in that top spot. GGG had an impressive ko streak going, is very solid fundamentally, and recently beat his #1 challenger in his division. Loma does things no one else can do in the ring right now, and has dominated world class fighters Like Nicholas Walters and completely outclassed them in the process. Ward hasn't been defeated since the amateurs, and has beaten better opposition than GGG and Loma combined.
I go back and forth on who I think is the best fighter today, changing my top two almost daily. Today I have Ward on top due to his longevity, and the fact that he has beaten so many tough fighters. Loma is a very close second in my opinion, because although he lost a close fight to Salido early on, he has outclassed his opponents since in a way that Ward hasn't ever been able to. GGG is a great fighter in my opinion, but p4p to me is exemplified in fighters who are able to fight bigger opponents and still dominate/win (Pac, Floyd, Roy, Hop, Evander...etc.), and I think that GGG will be ineffective if he moves out of that weight class (Hagler is the one fighter I forgive for remaining solely in one weight class his whole career since I'm a fan boy).

Re: Vasyl Lomachenko is P4P #1
Don't get upset because you can't form a cogent argument. I'm not the one that resorts to ad homienm, silly pictures or back slapping mardy mates accusing someone of saying things they never said.
All I asked was why the middleweights were superior opponents than Brook even though evidence shows that Brook had much better success. Eventually you answered - "Golovkin let him do better." Fine. That's your opinion, I never said it's wrong, it's fucking stupid, but your opinion nonetheless.
I never once compared Brook to anyone. I gave you an example of why it's not illogical - as you claimed - for smaller men to successfully challenge bigger men. It's not my fault if idiots dive into the middle of conversations without understanding the context.
-
Re: Vasyl Lomachenko is P4P #1
You are the one getting upset and name calling. Not me.
I have no doubt the opponents that GGG beat would have beaten Brook at middleweight. There is a reason why Brook fights at welterweight because he is not a middleweight to begin with and he would not be half as successful. Brook got an opportunity and he tried but he could never live up to the middleweights if he campaigned there.

Yeah you've already said that. Did I ever say your opinion is wrong? No. When you claimed Brook did better because "Golovkin let him" I said - "fair enough," I didn't even dispute it regardless of how pathetic an answer it is.
However, If you claim to have "relevant facts" then you have to produce them when challenged. Your opinion doesn't count as a relevant fact.

Your opinion that the "middleweight" Brook would beat the shit out of three and school the other two is wrong. If it was true Kell would have been campaigning at the weight.
Look back at your posts you have been the one resorting to name calling.
