PBF is considered to be the No.1 by most "experts" at the moment. He has unequalled talent and skill of a true champion, but it seems that he is avoiding quality opposition and been doin' nothin' for the past 3 years now.\n\nSo i have to pick Manny "PACMAN" Pacquiao to be the best out there. Not only he is the top P4P boxer, but he is also the most exciting fighter to watch in the ring. he'd been fighting the best in his division and knocking them off too! and he does'nt just stop there, he seeks out for more! This guy is definitely the man to beat at 130!\n\nPACMAN rules!!!

Honestly...I think that it will not happen until a young up-and-comer named Daniel Marchica gets a few more wins. He is going to be the next big thing, and the person to bring back boxing's popularity.

Don't hold me to this because I'm relying on a shakey memory. I know he was a 3 time Golden Gloves Champion record 30wins-2losses I think. His current record is 79W-5L-2D-38ko. I also think he was arrested for theft recentley.

Of the current contenders as ranked by Ring Magazine, I think John Ruiz would be the most likely to take such a shot.  The other contenders--assuming the fight is five months from now--had fought recently, many of them losing, and therefore wouldn't be interested.\n\nRuiz hasn't fought in about a year and would probably want a rematch with WBA beltholder Nicolay Valuev.  I think he would also take a shot against WBO beltholder Shannon Briggs, who looks the least impressive of the current beltholders.\n\nAnother fighter who would take the shot would be Samuel Peter, who likely feels that his performance against IBF beltholder Wladimir Klitschko was good enough even though it didn't get him a win.

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.

I'd love to see Klitschko work inside on Valuev, but I see a bunch of nobodies fighting him for a while until he (Valuev) can harness his size.  I could see Calvin Brock in Wlad's future.  But we'll have to see how he does against Ibrigamov.  It's about time Brock gets tested, as well as Ibrigamov, both undefeated.

Hughes and sylvia will still be the champs,\n\nWho the fuckk says they don't deserve their title anymore! What the f are you talking about little boy\n\nMatt  has the record for defending his title and is now being considered the best in the world

I am wondering the same.  He has been doing not so good though.  he's still winning kind of, but not like the TKO man he used to be...

The most recognized is Wladimir Klitschko of Ukraine.\nhttp://www.klitschko.com/\n\nThere are different organizations in boxing that give out world championships. They're commonly called the alphabet organizations because many people think they're just silly with no unified champ. Klitschko is currently the IBF (International Boxing Federation) champ. Here are the others:\n\nNikolai Valuev - Russia - WBA (World Boxing Association)\nHasim Rahman - USA - WBC (World Boxing Council)\nSergei Lyakhovich - Belarus - WBO (World Boxing Organization)

I'm afraid your knowledge of boxing is poor!! Naz was a good world champion making 17 defences of a world title> thats a big ask for any world champion!! unfortunately he underachieved considering the amount of talent he had!! Only a fool would try and compare Ricky to Naz they are like chalk and cheese. Ricky is conquering the world while naz is doing 15 months in jail for dangerous driving!! There styles are totally opposites !! if want more information on Naz ask Kevin Kelly
