Both Middle and Super-Middle have been really dragging their feet for nearly a decade.
Canelo's consistency, his ability to hang at the top level, is his main selling point. The big asterisk is in the word hang. His best opponents...
Top fighter. Fun to watch. Volume, good pop, and lots of guts. Only the very best edged him.
Four is fair. Bam keeps stopping his opponents - at super-fly - and just took care of business against a handful in Martinez. Has overcome...
Inoue-Rodriguez isn't an important fight. The rest of Inoue's career is Nakatani then featherweight...

Canelo is a heck of a campaigner, you have to give him that, fighting pro since his teens, but that record has more asterisks than anyone elses....
Problem is, I don't rate Golovkin particularly high, plus I scored both fights a draw. Further, Canelo became undisputed at 168 via beating Callum...

The Ngannou fight is a non-factor. Most who scored it felt Fury edged things, plus he was in poor condition. Usyk beating Fury was special...
Wladimir was inactive and past it against Joshua, and yet, because he showed up big, many feel it's Joshua's best win. You have to factor in how...
Usyk has beaten the better collection of fighters. Further, I consider his victory over Fury a greater achievement than Crawford beating Canelo....
Funnily enough, if both Bam and Nakatani close out strong, it's arguable Crawford is the least deserving of the top four. Thought Bud was...
