    Nice to see The Ring is giving Inoue the recognition he deserves.

    I personally think it's Crawford, but i can't argue that. Inoue looked good against Nery, but if Usyk beats Fury I think he will take the number 1 spot.

    Errol Spence... lol.

    What has this guy done in the last 2 years besides getting a beatdown and getting knocked out. A total joke.

    If Spence is ranked no. 7, which I don’t agree with, then Crawford should still be at the top. However, I have no problem with Inoue as no. 1.

    Inoue never should have been dropped from #1 in the first place

    Here is what the top 10 should look like:

    Inoue
    Crawford
    Usyk
    Bivol
    Beterbiev
    Alvarez

    The next 4 gets more tricky. There is a list of fighters who can make a claim.

    Nakatani
    Opetaia
    Davis
    Lomachenko
    Rodriguez
    Alimkhanuly
    Benevidez
    Stevenson

    Kind of sad that the guy that embarrassed Canelo and sent him running back to SMW outboxed him in every way yet is below him in the rankings.

    Usyk should be above Crawford imo.

    Have no problem with that one!! But after Usyk beats Fury… HE needs to be moved to number One. ;) Without question

    There hasn't been a REAL Ring mag around for many a year now.

    I agree, Spence should not be in the top ten now.
    I'm a fan of Bivol, but Canelo has a much deeper resume, despite that loss. He's defeated a lot of world titleholders.

    Let's not forget, Alvarez started at super lightweight and moved up through the weight divisions.
