    You are talking about active fighters, FMJ has not been active for years. Why even mentioning him, do you like riding his schlang that much ?

    Like Floyd being unable not to mention money or himself even when it has nothing to do with the subject, the Fl*mo d'riders cant resist making it about him either.
    Answer is Crawford by the way.

    Yes... Certainly among the HWs, Usyk's definitely up there. Hard to deny his smarts.

    Also among the HWs, I'd now add Kabayel to the list.

    I'd put Big Baby at the other end of the spectrum I think....

    My bad I was expecting some people to answer him because they would consider him active because he still does exhibition match so I had to exclude him just in case

    Bud, Bivol, and Usyk. Those 3 are clear for me. I would have Inoue after them.

    It's hard to say just "one": I'd say Crawford honestly..............

    Behind him or arguably equal to him are: Loma, Usyk, Bivol, Ennis, Inoue, Canelo
