    if you had to choose one.

    between the two, who would you consider the greater technical fighter?

    so even with how great a counterpuncher canelo is

    you would still say Usyk is a superior technician?

    I mean, Usyk is technically superior to Golovkin, and we all know Golovkin outboxed Canelo 2 times. So by my advanced maffs, Usyk>Golovkin> Kovalev> Canelo> Ward

    that's fair

    what boxers would you put ahead of Usyk in terms of pure technical ability, are there any? currently
    is he the top dog in this regard

    Theyre about even on a techical level, but i think Canelo is slightly better defensively.

    Usyk all day everyday. His skills win his fights. He's a road warrior that doesn't try to stack the cards in his favour.

    Since we've seen Canelo outboxed (more than once, if we are being honest) I would say Usyk.
