    Guys who have nailed down and consistently execute the technical fundamentals of boxing.

    I would say...

    Naoya Inoue
    Juan Francisco Estrada
    Donnie Nietes

    These three are the most beautiful to watch throw flawless textbook punches.

    Mikey Garcia?
    Gennadiy Golovkin?
    Dmitry Bivol?
    Clenelo Alvaroids?

    You didn’t ask “who are the most textbook fighters?”

    This is a very good list. Throw in Mikey Garcia and GGG and there probably isn't any need to go any further.

    Proffessors don't stick to fundamentals, its their pushing of the boundrys & imaginative determination that makes them special.
    What use is a professor who just regurgitates all he has learnt without trying to put his own stamp on it ?
