Boxing: Who are the 5 slickest boxers today?

Posted at: 2015-04-20 
Please explain your picks...

1-Mayweather: The best Ive seen at defending shots in very small distance or when cornered (maybe Nicolino Locche, James Toney and Benitez did but very few can rival that)

2-Rigondeaux: never seen him getting hit with 2 clean punches in a round, might very well have the best balance and footwork of the last 3 decades

3-Vitali Klitschko: Thats an unpopular choice, hes the best K bro, and skillwise hes up there with the best of this era

4-B Hop, now if u said whose the slickest of this era, he'd be higher but with his age, he has been getting tagged recently.

5-Omar Narvaez, US fans are not found of him but this guy is impossible to hit even when he jumped 2 weight classes and fought a P4P fighter

I know Andre Ward fans always say hes slick, I dont consider him slick. I think hes the best inside fighter and can smother his opponents offense but those tactics might not work as well with an objective ref who doesnt favor the house fighter

I would say Floyd, followed by Ward, Bradley, Rigondeaux and B-Hop, they definitely don't win by slugging and are not know for KO power, but still have managed to dominate for the majority of their careers. I have to give Wladimir Klitschko an honorable mention as well, the jab Emanual Steward taught him served him well over the years.

Floyd Mayweather- Watch the Guerrero fight lol

Tim Bradley- Not anywhere as slick as Mayweather but he can stick and move decently which makes hin hard to hit.

Juan Estrada- This little dude is a straight beast

Rigo- Pure Boxer

Lara- His fight with Trout.

1. Mayweather - He gets paid the most, and doesn't have to fight the best.

2. Ward - dominated 168

3. Rigondeux- best all around boxer

4. Lara - No one wants to fight him for a reason

5. Hopkins- Old, and still slick

1st pernall whitaker 2 mayweather 3 james toney 4 joan guzman 5 prince naseem

Obviously, Floyd Jr. should top this list, along with Guillermo Rigondeaux, Manny Pacquiao, Amir Khan and Tim Bradley.

Floyd - slick

rigo - slick

ward - heavy and slick

mikey garcia- slick

and

jermell Charlo - took rosado to school.

others

b-hop

Crawford

Golovkin shown c that he can get caught but he pressures well and does half steps back to stay offensive. that's always fun to watch.

lara isn't too slick he's a boxer but he can get caught and cleanly so in my book not slick unless they're talking about his trash talking.

by slick um looking at fighters who don't get hit much and out point their opponents each round.

hard to hit, no not pacquiao... not even bradley.

must be floyd, ward, rigo, crawford then bhop,
