    By this you can include paper champ holders. Untested guys that could also be hype.

    My current favorites are:

    Tyson Fury
    Keith Thurman


    Who are your favourites?

    has even fought since KO'ing Jacobs.

    I hate inactive fighters. Especially the talented ones. Alot of it is cos they only fight if every thing is perfect, the opponent, the purse, the venue etc. etc.

    Just step in the ring!!!

    That KO was beautiful though.

    I still haven't given up hope for Ismayl Sillakh. Prior to him getting sparked by that bum, I was convinced he was the future of the LHW division.

    I think his problems are promotional and managerial. His team is ruining his career. He needs to get a promoter that knows what they are doing.

    His problem is a career-threatening injury.
