    I love watching Chocolatito. Oh man, if only he was bigger is size he could have been a monster in the higher divisions.

    His style, aggression and controlled aggression is beautiful to watch

    I must also mention

    Artur Beterbiev - brute and intelligent force. Very under rated IQ and I see him battering Joe Smith Jr and Canelo tbh.....

    Miguel Cotto.....amazing crouched style and beautiful left hook. In his early years he was a monster and even later on he was very very competitive against Canelo. I really loved his fluid style

    Right now I’m really liking Vergil Ortiz jr. Probably has the strongest jab today

    Cotto. Good all-around boxer and humble. All business. Great jab and left hook. A converted southpaw.

    Cause of their experience. Vergil’s jab gets better in every fight. It looked like a power punch vs Kavaliauskas

    Right now, it has to be Josh Taylor for me

    Simply because he hasn't taken any easy route's and every fight has been meaningful throughout his so far short pro career,

    17 / 18 pro fights and he's undisputed champion within that timespan..... what an achievement.

    Brilliant fighter

    Muhammad Ali -
    The Greatest. His movement and footwork was mesmerizing. A generational talent that fought and beat everyone at his best. Best Showman.

    Oleksandr Usyk -
    A hint of Loma but in his own flavor. Best pure boxer in the world imo. With a resume and the straps to back it all up. He will defy father time and be Undisputed in the premier weight division.

    Sunny Edwards -
    What a little boxer. Great footwork and movement. Maximizes the ring. Doesnt have the pop but will shut you out for the 12 rounds. I recon he will have the best feet by the time he enters his prime. His switch hitting ability is something that baffles me, to be able to move both left and right with ease is a work of art.

    Josh Taylor -
    A complete fighter. A on the outside. A+ on the inside. Can mess about and fight from midrange. Can stalk a stalker and outbox a boxer. He also has the power to keep everyone honest.

    Naoya Inoue -
    Dynamite. He has pop like we've never seen. A great puncher. He has so much power that we forgot he is a great boxer. His use of triple uppercut combos is something you dont see from anyone else. Sadly, hes so good we dont see him in dogfights.

    Billy Joe Saunders -
    On a day, he could have beaten Canelo. Great feet. Great judgment of distance. Sadly, he may be forced to retire already.

    Kazuto Ioka -
    A technician of the highest order. Japanese boxers have a thing for using their lead hands in ways others dont. Can also mix it up in other ways.

    Guillermo Rigondaux -
    Definitely knows the Sweet Science. His masterclass vs Donaire is up there as one of my favorite boxing clinics.

    Juan Francisco Estrada -
    Complete fighter. Multidimensional.

    Erlislandy Lara -
    He beat Canelo comfortable. Hes like a bigger version of Rigo.

    Terrence Crawford -
    Bud is the most complex and multi faceted fighter in the game. Best switch hitter in the game.

    Jose Zepeda -
    Underrated. Robbed against Ramirez. Lacks the fire, but is a great boxer.

    Dmitry Bivol -
    I recon he can beat Beterbiev. Hes built for it. Beterbiev is the best at cutting off the ring, but Bivol may be the best at fully utilizing it. He has power. He is inch perfect with his punches. A smart and calculated boxer puncher.
