How are you ordering these boys now from best to worst? Any particularly bad style clashes in the given match ups?
I would include Buatsi in the list too. 1. Callum Smith 2. Anthony Yarde 3. Joshua Buatsi. 4. Dan Azeez 5. Craig Richards I'm looking forward to seeing Callum Smith against Bivol or Beterbiev to be honest.
1. Buatsi 2. Smith 3. Azeez 4. Yarde 5. Arthur 6. Richards In terms of who I like, Arthur is number 1 for me so have tried to do it on boxing. Smith is number 56 for personality. Although I'm not sure he's arsed about my views.
1. Callum Smith 2. Anthony Yarde 3. Dan Azeez 4. Craig Richards 5. Joshua Buatsi Yarde and Richards have tested themselves against the best in the division, until Buatsi does so I can't rate him that highly, if he doesn't back himself how can I be expected to? Callum Smith ha enough about him to be a player in this division, he's not half as bad as some people make out. This content is protected
Agree 100% with this list. When you rank fighters you have to do it based on Wins, this list does it.
Buatsi did beat Richards to be fair to him. Obviously that doesn't mean he has to be ahead of him, but I would say he that is a better fighter than Richards.
1. Smith 2. Buatsi 3. Yarde 4. Richards 5. Azeez I do think Azeez could beat Richards and Richards could beat Yarde though. It would be nice if they all started fighting eachother, but they don’t want to.
I think Craig Richards is the most underrated on the list. IMO its 1. Smith 2. Buatsi 3. Richards 4. Yarde 5. Azeez Would love to see Yarde v Richards next if not Buatsi.
Yarde just gave Beterbiev - widely considered a killer and in some peoples eyes the hardest hitting p4p fighter on the planet right now - a hell of a fight, so to rank him 4th is rather odd ? Agree on your comments regarding Craig Richards.
to put the accuracy of my views in context....I have only bet on boxing a dozen times ever. One of those times was when Audley fought Haye. Audley promised he would win and redeem himself. So I bet £100 on him as I'd bought his lines since he won the Commonwealth in 98. When he was knocked out having spent 6 minutes frozen in fear, it truly hit home that my views and predictions need to be taken with a large weight of sodium.
I have also entirely changed my mind since I wrote my rankings. I probably should not be allowed to vote.
