Although toney might be the best skilled hw boxer right now, and valuev may be the most physically imposing, i have to say my current favorite is lamon brewster. He has true heavyweight power (as evidenced by his comeback stoppage of klitchko and quick knock out of golota) and he clearly has a lot of heart (fighting sergei with a detached retina from round 1 and nearly pulling out a decision). The amazing thing is is even though he is an american heavy, he really has recieved very little pub and needed to win the fight he lost in part because of injury. Its pretty disappointing as he really could have launched if he won a few more fights consecutively.

Floyd Mayweather jnr v Oscar De La Hoya\n\nUndercard\nShane Moseley v Fenando Vargas\nKevin McBride v Nicolai Valeuv\nRicky Hatton v Miguel Cotto\nand finally Barrera v Rocky J or WInky Wright against Bernard Hopkins.\n\nand you could call it the Night that Boxing was waiting for.

Green Donkey ~\n                           This is the worst decade ever for boxing! There are some bright spots, some fighters that can make a splash, Taylor, Wright, Barrera, Cotto and Duddy but there's so many overrated, over-hyped fighters out there that are handpicking opponents just to collect belts or to stay a "Champion" just a little longer like Mayweather, he turned down 6 million dollars more to fight a young and hungry Antonio Margarito and Valuev, he and Don King are feeding him lots of small Heavyweights that couldn't break a egg so he can remain undefeated.\n   The worst is, you have the "Fans" that don't know anything about the sport call people "Great" You seem to have figured it out, you came to this forum and asked a question because you kinow that things aren't right.

Well I've only seen Ponce De Leon fight once and I've seen almost all of Pacquiaos fights. I don't know how strong De Leon's chin is Pacquiao has proven his chin agaisnt some of the best... I think it would be a good fight but i will go for Pacquiao just because he started off as a flyweight and he is now a superfeather weight and is still knockin people down, thats flyweight superflyweight bantamweight super batamweight featherweight and superfeatherweight thats 6 divisions of weight classes that he has skipped through and still knocks people out, but i saw Ponce De Leon with this one punch knockout in the first round agaisnt a Thai fighter if i am correct and he was out, but it will be interesting to see if he could handle Pacquiaos speed and power.

in terms of quality, I'll say the Philippines. PacMan is probably the best pound for pound boxer right now and can be compared with the other greats in any division in any era. In terms of quantity, there certainly are more mexicans who are or were champs.

Pancho ~\n               In my opinion, no matter how dysfunctional the Mayweather clan is (and they are) there's still that Father, son connection. What father in their right mind (not that Floyd is in the right mind) would want to train another man to hurt is arrogant son, because that's how you beat Floyd Jr. you hurt him, you beat him, you elbow him, you force your will on him and Sr, knows this.\n\n            Gilberto Reyes, the Mastermind behind Julio Cesar Chavez's destruction of Floyd's Uncle Roger has had a few meetings with the De La Hoya camp. Oscar should be a sponge at these meetings and absorb everything Gilberto has had to say. The one thing that Gilberto stresses at every meeting is "You must not be trained by Floyd Sr. for this fight."\n            \n\n      Some people would argue that Floyd Sr. is a professional and is above not training his fighter properly for the fight at hand and I say to those same people, "Have you ever watched a interview with Floyd Sr, or any of the Maywethers?" the verbal communication can not be expressed without using obscenities and there is nothing Professional about them.\n\n    Oscar needs to get rid of Floyd Sr. and if he doesn't whatever does or doesn't happen to Oscar is Oscar's fault.

That's what i've been trying to figure out! He's the best fighter out there right now. You don't have to like his personality or some of his antics outside the ring, but we're talking about in the ring. Give me one fighter in boxing right now that is more skillful, has more ring savvy, is as quick, and had dominated more world class opponents than Floyd. I agree that there are still some good fights out there for Floyd, like Paul Williams, Antonio Margarito, Ricky Hatton, Miguel Cotto and Mega fights like Shane Mosley and Oscar De la Hoya, but let's not be blind to what the man has already done in his career. Personally, i would like to see him fight Margarito next because everyone says Floyd is afraid of him and is his biggest threat. I wonder what all the haters will say when he dominates Margarito(sorry folks. way too slow for Floyd) like he did Baldomir? I see a Mayweather-Margarito fight going much like Roy Jones-Julio Gonzalez, the more skillful fighter dominating with speed, technique, and ring smarts against the bigger, slower fighter. Hate him or love him, but if you deny his talents or that he's the best right now, then you are not keeping it real!

It should be Manny Pacquiao since he's beaten the best in his division and not pick his opponents like Mayweather does. However, Mayweather's undefeated and that may be the only reason why he's the #1 pound for pound guy. I disagree though. It should be Pacquiao.

Floyd Mayweather Jr. is a huge favorite going into the fight. He's not only undefeated, he's the current pound-for pound champion. Mayweather surpasses Judah in speed, skill and power. I'm not sure what Judah could do to win, but if he does it'll be a huge upset in the boxing world.

Before he gets into the ring Mayweather should not give into De La Hoya's demands for the fight.  De La Hoya will tell him what weight class he wants to fight at, size of gloves he wants to use, and ring size.  In the ring he will have to move around, use angles, and not chase De La Hoya around the ring.  Plus he has to remember that De La Hoya has quick hands and power.  If he comes in good condition he should beat De La Hoya.

Saturday's fight? De la Hoya TKO in the 6th. Lousy fight.

I'm not sure about best. I have a hard time comparing fighters from different weight classes and different eras. But Julio Cesar Chavez is my favorite and definitely one of the all-time greats.\n\nChavez wasn't at lightweight very long, but it would have been great to see him from '89 fighting a Roberto Duran from '78. That would have been an exciting fight - two guys free with their fists and with great chins. Personally, I think Chavez would have won by decision with his more refined subtle defense, but there's no way of knowing for sure.
