      Inoue, hopefully he can get the right exposure in America this year, 2014 was a great year and then 2015 ruined his progress but luckily age is on his side.

      Beating Roman will take his career to the next level. Only question mark with him being mainstream is weight class discrimination but with his explosive style I think he can make it.

        Verdejo would of been my first pick without a doubt. His last fight showed how far he has to go. Basically he looked one dimensional. I think it's a tie with spence Jr and Ramirez

          Inoue looks the goods, is the youngest (edit second youngest) and the most proven so i have to go with him on top

          Maybe not in terms of fame due to his size, but he has some strong opponents in and around his division (potentially see Gonzalez and Estrada moving up at some point) and i see him putting together a very good resume by the time he retires.

          Spence is going to be good, and exciting. He's in a division that needs sorting, and whoever ends up doing that will be very marketable. Also will probably move up and he has some good opponents in the divisions above too.

          Verdejo i think is very talented but i dont think he has the ring IQ to match at this stage. Lots of room to improve though.

          Jnr is looking better as time goes on so he is a bit of a wild card. I wish there was someone who could teach him some better power punching technique because i think there is a lot of untapped potential there. The memory of him jumping about winging wild punches vs BJS is still there for me so i cant be sold on him yet.

          I havent seen Ramirez in a while so cant judge him atm. Should watch his win vs Abraham tbf but havent got round to it

              Inoue has looked the most impressive so far. For a 9-0 twenty-three year old he's monstrous.

                  But he can get the big fights around his weight classes. There's enough money behind Japanese fighters for that to happen. 118 is definitely realistic for him and maybe even 122. Beyond that might be too much but he can build a HoF career between 115 and 112.

                    Errol Spence.

                    Sorry, not impressed with Narvaez, let alone anyone else in Inoue's resume. I think Lomachenko should take Inoue's place in the top 10 P4P list of Ring and TBRB. But panel members favor KO's so I understand. I know they prefer not to have the Ward's and Rigondeaux's in there but they have to, to not seem biased towards power punchers.
