Yeah man and here lies the dilemma. A few potentials that are close to retirement. Inoue is 31 years old and isn't main stream attention to the casuals since most can't even catch his fights live. By the time he might crack a super star fight, he'll also be close to retirement.
I actually forgot a bit about Tank since he's been quiet lately. He COULD of had the potential, but he needs to be more active and face more known opponents. His Frank Martin win was another one where they built up Frank Martin to be somebody he wasn't to make him sound like a worthy challenge to Tank. For me, he's missing an opportunity here to pick up the mantle.
Imagine, when all is said and done, Jake Paul is the guy? HAHAHAHAHH

Depends what age group we're looking for I'm still fully stocked on David morrell jr size talent talking English now & talking shh right place right time. Hell beat benavidez with such win go target canelo @168 if he's still dodging legit threats then your @ the right spot to take on beterbiev bivol rematch winner such would catapult morrell jr. Ryan Garcia could've been such til the ped yet it's boxing give it time to wash away like canelos Mexican steaks Ryan Garcia is a capable 140-147. Tank still is tank but is he really selling 1m ppv consistent nah keshawn Davis though young & talented I doubt will be the face of boxing not a ko artist nor a defensive wizard that talks smack his personality is tim Bradley level

Hopefully, nobody.
We don't need anymore "diva" fighters who hold whole divisions hostage & make "business decisions" on who to fight.
We need to go back before things were pre-Mayweather, when the guy was the guy who'd fight everybody
De La Hoya was the last "face" who fought everybody, when he was supposed to fight them.

Crawford and Loma will likely retire around the same time as Canelo. Inoue doesn't have big enough household names to make him a PPV star. Tank isn't willing to take on risky fighters at their best. Beterbiev will retire soon whether he gets the Canelo fight or not. Ennis hasn't fought anyone yet. Haney is boring and a cry baby. Shakur is still cherry picking and isn't exactly fan-friendly in terms of style. Usyk will be the last man standing but who knows how much longer he will hang around?
Ryan Garcia may have potential but he's one loss away from fading from the public's interest.
