By end of 2016-2017 who will be best 175lb?

Now that we have Ward/Kovalev/Stevenson/Pascal/Beterbiev( I dunno how to spell his name). It's a pretty exciting time
For the light heavyweights. So who do you think will reign supreme when all said and done? Personally I can
Never go against Ward bc his boxing IQ and skills but if Kovalev would be #1. I wouldn't be totally shocked.

Gonna still be Kovalev. LoL for mentioning Ward. He's gonna fight another SMW at LHW and then not fight for a year and a half, probably suing Roc Nation because he's bored

[DJR005]

How do I set up polls now too?

Kovalev or Ward depending on how certain fights play out. Thing is, Stevenson has a great shout too but with the insular nature of PBC and the soon to be used PBC belts, I don't see him fighting for the other titles in the division, titles that Kovalev owns. So, by default, Kovalev v Ward, if it ever happens, will be for the number one spot in the division.

Gvozdyk if idiot Arum does not ruin him.

Beterbiev. I think he can put all these cats to sleep including Ward.

Put fonfara in there and lets make a new Super 6 World Boxing Classic at light heavyweight!

Kovalev. Stevenson won't fight him, neither will Ward. When he demolishes Pascal via brutal KO, it will be the final nail in the coffin for Ward in terms of stepping in the ring with him.

Kovalev.

Based on age Stevenson is the most likely to decline by then. Maybe he continues with his level of opposition though and stays champ. I pick Kovalev over Ward at this point but Ward is so good when he's at his best that it's hard to see him losing even though nobody is unbeatable. Right now though he has no momentum and might not get back to the same level of performance. Kovalev isn't the perfect fighter but has no obvious weakness and I think he's less likely to get upset by a B-level opponent than Stevenson. Berbetiev looks good so far but I'm not certain he can make the jump from where he is to beating elite guys.
