Who are the current boogiemen in every boxing division?

[lopetego]

Boogieman: a fighter who is avoided by most, if not all, of the other top fighters in the division. The boogieman is highly avoided either because he's high risk / low reward, or simply because the other fighters don't fancy their chances against him *chicken sounds*. The boogieman is often unoficially regarded by fans as the best fighter and unsung king of the division, or at least one of the best talents that'll shine if he ever gets his lucky break


List of current Boogiemen per division (2022)

HW - it was Ortiz for a good while, but maybe Dillian Whyte is now ready to take the mantle
CW - ?
LHW - ? (maybe Bivol, as Beterbiev is clearly avoiding this guy like the plague)
SMW - Canelo cleaned this division, so no boogieman here. Btw props to ginger for beating not one, but two boogiemen in the past: Lara and GGG
MW - ? . Used to be GGG. It's probably Andrade now, as the other fighters seem hell bent on avoiding him
LMW - Sebastian Fundora
WW - Boots Ennis
LWW - Arnold Barboza
LW - Lomachenko. it's clear he's morphed from kingpin into boogieman of the division after losing to Teofimo. All beltholders are steering clear of him.
SFW - ?
FW - ?
SBW - ?
BW - Rigondeaux has been the traditional boogieman here for many years, i'm not sure if things might change after his loss to Casimero
Super Flyweight - Probably none atm, the top fighters routinely fight each other in this division, which is a rarity in boxing
Flyweight - ?
Light flyweight - ?
Minimumweight - ?

Am I leaving some boogiemen out of the list?

Name them so the list can be expanded

Luis Ortiz is the boogeyman in all the divisions it wouldn’t matter he wouldn’t allow multiple boogeyman he’d be harassing to the others if they were labeled that . They would probably need to file a restraining order on the true Boogeyman Ortiz .

Did he harass Rigondeaux at BW? because that's one traditional boogieman right there, and he's been around even before Ortiz!

He didn’t have time to because of the Loma fight . Currently he holds that name more serious and deems it better than a undisputed champion .

at 147...BOOTS!

His Father confirmed this morning all the guys who turn down fighting Boots and it is crazy...

can't say I blame them honestly

168 might be David Benavidez, none of the top dogs want to fight him unless they're paid really really well
160 might still be Golovkin, no one has said a word about him for the last 2 years despite him having the IBF belt although he is slated to fight Murata
154 Sebastian Fundora, no one likes getting in there with him
147 I agree with Boots
140 Arnold Barboza, beating Saucado should've given him bigger fights but no one's given him the time of day

Charlo said last year that he wants to fight him

Yeah, it took him a long time and being in obvious decline, but GGG's not the avoided boogieman he once was.

Too bad he's been tied, for what it seems like forever, in that cursed fight with Murata that never happens, so a possible Charlo-GGG clash is still nowhere in sight
