I think it's a great era. Floyd and Manny are two legit ATG, top of the line fighters, and there seems to be multiple competitive divisions with big fights still to be made.

to me, i feel like 1999 is not way better but definitely a step up from right now. i understand that we are talking about this "era" and not right this second but i think these lists are a little telling. i do feel like we have slowly lost some better fighters in the past 20 or so years. i think that there may be some exaggeration on how bad this era is by some people but i do think that it isnt as good as it has been in the past and i dont believe that we have as many sure HOFers (well, what i would consider a HOFer anyway) as we had in the past.
thats my two cents.

If max power was here he would say it is the greatest era ever because of diet, training and modern technology.
Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.
Good question, please set the boundaries, where does "this" era begin?
Guys like Nonito Donaire to Sergio Martinez are still fighting ..... not retired and most of all: Were considered P4P before losing in the past two years or so.
Those 2 were NEVER on my list, but for those who did have them listed, would then have to defend their answers by using those who have been placed on THEIR p4p list(s) of this era.
Then there are the over achievers: greats from the previous era still dominating.
All's lost! Everything's going to shit!
