    If I had to choose I would have to say Brook. I can understand people saying Thurman but one time gets more attention because he is better and fun to watch in and out of the ring.

    Thurman. I like him, and he's the future. But people are going crazy about him and he's yet to be tested. He got wobbled and hurt by a slow ass Karass. And he's supposed to give Floyd trouble.

    3 years from now. Thurman will be the best the welterweight in the world. and top 5 P4P. But not right now.

    Rigo also has the WBA, so remove him from the list.
    Juan Estrada WBA..

    Huck and the whole CW Division is second class to HW. *coughHayecouch*, If you are actually really good, you take your ass to HW to make actual money.

    So you are left... with Terrance Crawford, Omar Andres and Mikey Garcia. That is not a lot.

    ah no cruisrweight is there so guy who weigh 200 pounds have somewhere to fight, theres some top class fighters in the cruiserweight division.

    so your left with Crawford,Omar Andres, Garcia, kovalev, pacman, Ruslan, huck that are just wbo champions and arguably the best in there divisions and Rigo ,Wlad Estrada who hold the WBO along with other belts, well if you dont count there WBO championships as meaning something because they hold other belts than you can argue the opposite argument

    WBO is the exact same as the other 3 organisations

    WHat about the IBO or WBU and all those B.S. belts though? WBO is as important as the others these days but a few years back they got no respect... and righfully so.

    Lomachenko

    Highly overrated
    Kell Brook
    Deontay Wilder
    Gary Russell Jr.
    Zou Shiming

    Enough doubters and enough on the resume to be less overrated than the above:
    Keith Thurman
    Tyson Fury

    ---

    Actually, a ton of HW's have belonged here over just the last two or three years. In addition to Fury and Wilder, you've got the Helenius', Arreola's, Magomed's, and Adamek's who have all belonged in this conversation for various reasons.

    Loma gave a great account of himself in a losing effort to Salido I dont think hes overrated. Thurman did get rocked by a Karass jab, but this is the same Karass that gave Maidana hell and upset Berto. I'm goingto say even tho he's highly talented and with great potential Gary Russell Jr hasn't beaten anybody except a shot Pastrana. A prime Pastrana might of been a different story. But yea the least tested fighter without a world title belt is GRJr.
