    Yeah. Definitely. I thought you meant up and coming, on the rise, boxers.

      No. It's general question.

        It might be too soon to say since this guy just debuted recently, but it seems that Emiliano Vargas seems to be highly touted to be talented due to his credentials, not that it be enough to determine how he fare as a professional.

          Usyk, Crawford, Loma, Fury, Inoue - all these guys have outstanding talent and achievements in their own way

          Possible: Spence, Ennis, Stevenson

              Lomo is a hypejob that was exposed by Teo and leaving Haney off the list is criminal he’s the first undisputed champ at 135 in over 30 years

                    People go overboard with this because there’s not really a single definition for what generation talent is ? Every fighter utilizes skills based on their body type, height ,power etc . The biggest problem in boxing is degrading the current existing eras . Fury and A .J themselves show superior abilities for giant heavyweights not really previously seen in their own right , Usyk should be mentioned as well when discussing southpaw fighters . That’s 3 guys alone at heavyweight that you could class based on different criteria.

                    Canelo , Crawford, Loma , Andrade , etc are all legit names but every era produces its own top guys it’s not something that never happens frequently it’s the big myth and falsehoods of boxing . Someone almost always comes along to exceed the previous fighters more then not in many weight classes not usually most of them though at the same time . This era is highly underrated a few classes are thriving now .

                      My list:

                      Canelo Alvarez
                      Naoya Inoue
                      Oleksandr Usyk
                      Vasyl Lomachenko
                      Tyson Fury
                      Terence Crawford
                      Roman Gonzalez
                      Shakur Stevenson (Prospect)
                      Jaron Ennis (Prospect)
                      Vergil Ortiz (Prospect)



                      Fishing for more Canelo compliments? You have no shame.
