    yeah he can

    see the Alvarez fight from round 9 onwards and the latter part of the Lyndon Arthur match

      Yes beating Nel o and beterbiev are great wins and bivo l is skilful but only in 1 division. It's like when pac had beat better guys than floyd, in more weight divisions, yet was always kept below floyd pfp?
      Inoue just goes straight to the divisions best no messing about and that's why he's rewarded really.

          IF, and that is a huge if, Crawford can beat Canelo, than Crawford is the most skilled and he is N.1., hands down.

          Usyk is beating guys that are big, but not very good. Joshua and Fury are maybe Zurdo level. And Inoue is beating guys people hardly even know. If we are honest.

          But, ok, I am generous, Inoue is. N.1. p4p, I give him that for now.
          Bivol won vs the smaller Canelo. Then ducked the rematch he was offered, the same terms for another payday and refused. Thought he could get a better offer as the b side, doesn't work. And had 2 close fights vs 40 yr old Beterbiev losing one of them. Usyk after all ready clearing Cruiser came up and beat up at the time no.1 ranked AJ and Fury who had like 30+ lbs on him

                the most defensively disciplined fighter today

                occasionally gets hit with a cross

                35 to 37 will be a great time

                  He beat Beterbiev twice in my opinion.

                    bivol is younger and thus more athletic than Usyk but I dont think he is more skilled or more intelligent. Usyk has shown better adjustments and more dynamics to his game, has crazy angles ect. Bivol is most of the same thing.

                      we find out for sure when Bivol boxes Benavidez and Parker’s Cousin Buff Guy Jai

                      Artur thrice, 10-2’ing Benavidez, and 8-4’ing Jai would make Bivol p4p king

                      problem is Usyk could be retired by then
