    I'm going with Gvozdyk, who fights Stevenson next.

    Gvozdyk is tall, technical, and powerful. In his prime now at age 31, he should de-throne the older Stevenson.

    That is my 2nd choice. Bivol can punch, and has skills, but I still wonder about his adaptability.

    Dmitry Bivol, Badou Jack, Artur Beterbiev.

    The others are rather old or untested.

    I rate him very highly, he has amazing footwork and positioning which makes it very hard to hit him clean and he has a great jab, punching power in either hand and determination to the sport.

    I don't see anyone who is better in the Light Heavyweight division right now.
