Best resume as far as names beaten: Inoue (14-0 vs TBRB ranked former/future/current world titlists)
Most lineal championships: Crawford, 3
Best individual win: Usyk (Fury)
These are the only three guys even in the conversation.
his competition has been much tougher than crawford, and i say this as someone who is a much bigger fan of the welterweight division and the lower weights in general

Another factor is where Usyk beat these guys. Inoue and Crawford largely fought in the home corner.
Usyk beat Breidis in Latvia, Glowacki in Poland, Gassiev in Russia, Huck in Germany, Hunter in the USA, Joshua, Bellew and Chisora in the UK.
Even his two wins in Saudi, he was essentially the away fighter, it was his opponents promoter who was lead promoter.
I have to say so. The size difference between him and Fury in the ring was almost comical. It looked like he was little mac fighting against king hippo in punchout.
