    LOL Brilliant strategy to remain unbeaten!

    Don't know if it's ever been attempted in the past?

    Usyk and Crawford could possibly retire soon, so they get my vote.

    Fury is impossible to predict. He could loose against Usyk or Joshua... heck even Wilder might finally put him down for good. Or he could beat all of them. Or, he could retire without fighting any of them!

    Inoue is guaranteed to take a loss as he is continuously fighting top opposition while moving up in weight.

    Quite agree. He's unbeaten and simply unbeatable.

    You gain a lot based on how you react to and come back from defeat. Retiring with 0 loses should not be a primary career goal regardless of how much Floyd hyped it up to be and now Fury is running with.

    I voted quite a few as it’s pretty obvious they’re not going to take the risky fights we want to see, regardless of how important they are to cement their legacies.

    If they stick around long enough, they'll definitely pick up that eventual L.

    None of them if they fight all the top guys. eventually all of them will lose.


    I think only Beterbiev have a chance to beat top guys with 100% KO and retire unbeaten next year

    Well logic tells you that either Fury or Usyk will as they're really the only threat to eachother in the division.

    If Crawford keeps going the way he is going not fighting the best, he could easily go undefeated.

    Inoue is special but I can't see him going undefeated, I think one day he might go up a weightclass which will be a step too far. And someone you wouldn't think beat him actually does.

    Too many. It doesn’t mean **** anyone. Can’t remember which old time trainer it was but he said “Show me an unbeaten fighter and you’re showing me a fighter who hasn’t fought the best around”. Or something like that.

    Cherry pickers should not be on the list.
    Crawford & Fury are Cherry pickers.

    Usyk - only Fury might beat him, but Fury's not taking that chance

    Fury - only Usyk might beat him, etc.

    Crawford - not going to take enough risks, will retire at a sensible time

    Spence - not sure he's even interested any more. Probably disappear soon. Will lose if he fights Crawford though

    Inoue will be beaten during his first tilt at a middleweight belt

    A few fighters if their next fight is their final fight, Usyk, Fury, Spence, Crawford, but it’s very unlikely.

    Why is Fury on this list? He's already retired.
