Your top 5 most exciting fighters ... Currently

Idea courtesy of ElFinitoDynamita's thread here.

1 Fury
Love him or hate him, rate him or don't rate him, he is an exciting fighter to watch.

2 Matthysse
He is beatable and that has been proven, but he operates in a death box radius around himself and if he lands he can KO anyone in the division. What I find exciting is that he looks for those bombs always, as opposed to Garcia who has a bit more skills and doesn't need to bomb all fight.

3 Frampton
Another all rounded fighter, moves in and out of range so well and attacks great against taller fighters with more reach. Plus he has the power to end fights, even in the later stages as he did against current world champion Kiko Martinez, who had never been stopped when Frampton did it.

4 Carl Froch
Firstly, this guy is a massive vagina haver.
Secondly, it's great to watch an attacking fighter who has complete confidence in his own chin, he throws caution to the wind and goes for the kill. Not the most powerful but his lunging hooks are a treat when they land.

5 Sebastian Lujan
I mentioned him in a post yesterday. Underrated welterweight who pressures great and is an old pro, and a world title contender. He doesn't throw bombs, in fact his punches look feeble but they still drop people and he throws so many of them. Check out his fight against Mark Melligan.

Kirkland and GGG very much deserve to be on here.

Perhaps Josesito Lopez and Maidana as well.

Okay there's Ill add Wilder and Stevens to the list then n withdraw Lopez.

Pacquaio deserves least an honorable mention.

Sergey Kovalev & Lucas Matthysse for the punch power, Amir Khan because he brings drama because of his skillful speedy attacks and horrible chin, Roman Gonzalez as he is one of the most talented little guys in the sport and Floyd Mayweather Jr. because watching the #1 fighter in the world ply his trade is exciting and it is always the biggest event of the year.

Kovalev, Khan, Fury, GGG, Froch.

Marquez- marquez may not be the first name that pops in the minds of most people when thinking of excitement but for me, he's the epitome of excitement.. everybody has standards and marquez is my idea of a proper boxer. He possesses everything that I expect to see in a great fighter ..high boxing iq, boxing skills, respectable punching power, accuracy, and most importantly a flawless form.. I am set in my ways, have very fuckin high standards and Marquez certainly has all of it.. he floats my boat for sure.. I am very picky and anal about details.. punching form is so important to me and if a fighter doesnt have a beautiful punching form, I aint fuckin with em... excitement to me is not just about being aggressive and trading punches with your foe but its more about what that fighter is capable of and how he utilizes them.. that is why guys like maidana, lucas, bumce deleon, and bumass arakawa dont do shit for me... pacquaio i admire but his style bores me too.. Juan Manuel Marquez wows me and puts me on the edge of my seat every single time plain and simple. Exitement isnt just about going to war and absorbing punches .. Boxing is an art and marquez is like boxing picasso to me..

2. Jorge Linares- same reason.. it is a joy to watch him box..

3.Nonito Donaire

4. Viloria

5. Ioka

Basically, guys who are in team Finito I like for similiar reasons..

Thurman
GGG
Donaire
Manny
Kovalev

Keith Thurman is a good one.

Kevin Johnson
Zahir Raheem
Carlos Molina
Ishe Smith
Devon Alexander

Provodnikov
Kovalev
Santa Cruz
Segura
Maidana

Slightly biased but

1. Floyd Mayweather
2. GGG
3. Pac
4. Danny Garcia
5. Amir Khan

Amir khan that reckless style with the not so granite chin
Lucas matthyse brings it and still hope to see him rematch danny one day
Sergey kovalev don't blink
Marco huck well cause nobody ever gives props to the cruisers but dude makes for some fun scraps
Marcos maidana- his beating of broner finally made up fully for the stankfest that the alexander fight was

Good call with Santa Cruz, the guy is amazing.
I'm a Pactard so he is at the top of my list.
Prod
GGG
Despite Mares recent woes I enjoyed watching him during his run. Damn, it's hard to name just five. Although boxing has taken a back seat to just about every sport here in the USA there is a lot of talent in boxing. I dislike Floyd but he needs to be of mention. Despite being a major prick he is amazing.

Boxing isn't in such bad shape if we can't name just 5.


However, if asked to name 5 in the heavyweight division alone that might be a problem lol

Pacquiao, Maidana

in no certain order;

maidana
matthyse
provodnikov
pacman
khan ( because he always tries hard but gets rattled every time )

honorable mentions....donaire, vic 'the dick" darchnyian, GGG, froch, thurman
