    Either Crawford or Usyk. They're the most complete fighters in the sport.

    Blowing a gasket whilst injecting comedy into the proceedings for my own and other's amusement

    Dominant against binmen in divisions with 20 or 30 registered pros in them and not even normal sized binmen either. Malnourished freaks the size of runt leprechaun children

    Like I said, I love me some Usyk, but it's not a point of debate on who's more dominant. There's been no one more dominant than Inoue. Inoue's destroyed the divisional #1 in 3 weight classes and he'll smoke Fulton and MJ.

    Roman ducked him (not enough money to risk losing against 11-0 Inoue) and Estrada, Cuadras, and SSR are all obsessed with each other in a love rectangle. If Inoue was a weight bully, he would have stayed at super fly and wiped them all out.

    Inoue just has normal sized man power whilst campaigning in barren leprechaun divisions and his stacked wraps transform him from a good puncher to a lethal one

    The dominance argument is relative to your level of competition

    As said, Usyk had gone through like at least five different trainers in just eight fights which is crazy

    Usyk fighting giants twice his size and weight in their backyards

    Inoue bats 1.000 outside of Japan, so how can you say he's merely a good puncher without the wraps he's allowed?

    Also, again, 1970 vs 24XX isn't that huge of a difference in overall competition. When Inoue moves up, their gap in competition will be larger in favor of Inoue than it is for Usyk right now. 5'6 guys are way more common than 6'4 guys.

    He wears loaded wraps outside of Japan too, it's just he's able to get away with it easier in Japan. His Yakuza connections, and I have many 'business colleagues' who are high ranking members of certain clans I won't name so I know this for a fact, not only pull strings behind the scenes but they put up the money for the dives his opponents take.

    Usyk fighting giants who are way bigger and heavier than him, Inoue fighting malnourished leprechauns who would get wrecked by average sized schoolgirls

    None of those bums are as great as Terence “TBE” Crawford
