      Ward - Kovalev, Beterbiev,
      Canelo - Golovkin, Lara, Andrade
      Hopkins - Ward, Kovalev, Beterbiev

      In case Hopkins retires: Thurman - He's in a very dangerous weight class where any top 10 guy can beat any other top 10 guy at welter.

          Hopkins retires.
          Thurman? Brook... (by far)

            Kovalev has no imminent threats but I do badly want to see the Beterbiev fight.
            The reason I don't consider that an "imminent" threat is 1. Beterbiev is handled by the same people as Stevenson and 2. I think Kovalev has come a lot further since his amateur days.

            I consider Pascal and Hopkins both superior fighters to Stevenson so I never even got the big feud there. Yes he has the lineal belt but considering in hindsight where Dawson's career was when Stevenson fought him, it's also kind of an empty belt nobody cares about.

            Povetkin is threatened from all sides in every fight. He's just not big enough for modern heavyweight and is nearing 40. Once that explosiveness disappears and stoppages turn into trench warfare, those 5, 6, 7 inch height disadvantages won't be very fun. He already has to work harder for every punch.

            A couple years back I would have given Fury a small chance of winning and Wilder zero chance. If they stall another year, those could become 50/50 fights.

            Ironically he could probably pull out a revenge win over the current Wladimir, who has already aged badly.

              Golovkin - whoever calls him out on Twitter

              Ward - Dunn, Brand and Rohan but they all ducked him, so it's all good

              Khan - himself
