    There were no other elites to beat. However he beat plenty of great fighters and was exciting as hell in doing so

    wlads not an elite really, he got schooled by middlers plenty of times. Froch earned his place as an elite.

    Carl Frampton - was P4P top 10 and won the ring fighter of the year award
    & Anthony Joshua - great win versus Klitschko
    are the two best

    Tyson Fury - should have been the best. I'd have him 3rd in the circumstances.

    Followed by Jamie Mcdonnell - hugely underrated proven world class fighter.
    Ryan Burnett - very talented unified champ.

    & Kell Brook, Billy Joe Saunders, Tony Bellew.
    Scott Quigg will do big things,

    Josh Taylor is the best of the up and comers
    & there's a long list of talent. Michael Conlan, Andrew Selby, Josh Kelly, Sam Bowen, Willie Hutchinson, Joshua Buatsi, Mark Heffron, Lewis Crocker, Reece Bellotti, Lewis Crocker, Jack Bateson, Sam Maxwell, Lewis Ritson, Ryan Garner, Anthony Fowler and many more.

    Joshua, Saunders. Josh Taylor, Burnett, and Fury if he returns will be in the fighters in the most big fights in the next few years. Michael Conlan looks quality.

    Joshua, Saunders and Fury are the best at this time.................Saunders would have a chance vs. El Pollo, but Golovkin would cut off the ring at hurt him.................Lemieux can't cut off the ring...............he is not in the same class as Golovkin at all...................
