    Funny you actually have to mention the "inside the ring" part, to prevent mentioning the likes of Fury, Briggs and co.

    Top of my head for last 5 years
    Gonzalez
    Inoue
    Golovkin
    Kovalev
    Beterbiev
    .... probably missed a couple

    If skill entertains you, I guess Rigo, Floyd, Kova and Loma would complete that list for you?

    Hughie Fury is the greatest entertainer the sport has ever known ‘inside the ring’.

    The makers of Ambien would go out of business if medical journals saw this list.

    Sure
    I just prefer the guys on my list.
    I’d rather watch a sweet pete paint job over a gatti Ward any day.

    Robney,
    As a boxer myself I appreciate skills. Literally any idiot can slug it out. It takes dedication to learn a craft like boxing and to hit and not get hit.
