Really good topic Taeth...
Sending you some Rep.
Heres my list.


1. JMM - Argueably the most complete fighter out there today. Straight right, hooks, body shots, uppercuts, jab some of the best combinations. You list it he does it.

2. Pac - P4P power, fast hands, straight left has improved in mixing it up. He only uses his jab as a range finder.

3. Cotto - P4P power and it's proven against World Class opponents. Combinations up stairs down stairs, hooks to the head to the body, his new found straight left & right. The strong jab he used his last time out.

4. Joe - Skills and punches for days... This guy can shot off from any angle as hes leaning or coming up. He can throw it, fast hands and puts his punches together. No power behind them like Juan but again hes done well for him.

5. Rafa - Just like his brother from the school of 'Nacho'... Combinations, accuracy he has it. His jab is not as good as his brothers.

6. Israel - Very skilled and has better power then Rafa, but I feel Rafa is slighty more schooled then he his. In fight #2 Rafa thought he could walk in and do what he did in the 1st fight which was a big mistake.

7. Linares - This kids got it all man... straights, hooks, uppers the body shots and power. I think the best is yet to come from this kid and when JMM, Pac, John, Guzman & Barrios are going out he'll beat anyone of them.
(It's the cycle of boxing... )

8. Pavlik - P4P Power, slow but does make up for it in volume. Has crisp & sharp punches with good accuracy. Needs more movement and would like to see what one of his punches would do if landed to the body...

9. Juan Diaz - Non-stop punching machine. This kid fights for 180 seconds EVERY single round. His offense right now is uncompareable to anyones. The power deceives him but he does well without it.

10. Mikkel - Superb combinations, straight right, hooks and a really good jab. Good handspeed to go with really good power. One of the best offensive fighters out there today.
