    Artur Beterbiev is arguably one of those. He is ranked as the world's seventh best active light-heavyweight by The Ring magazine, and eighth by the Transnational Boxing Rankings Board and BoxRec.

    This doesn't do him justice. Seventh best? Eighth best according to Boxrec, lol.

    I say he's top four or at least top five.
    I think everyone knows beterbiev is good, its just thats hes inactive

      Nobody on this forum talks about Tony Yoka. Which is strange because he was an Olympic Gold Medalist. I think he's got the potential to be a world champion. He's very overlooked.

        Oleksandr Gvozdyk: complete virtuoso in the ring. King of the footwork and amazing speed variations/feints on his punches. My favorite Ukrainian fighter at the moment.

        Tevin Farmer: crazy unorthodox style, epitome of the slick American fighter (god I hate this term). Second coming of Forrest Whitaker. Fighter under 140 with the best chance of beating Lomachenko in my opinion.

        Demetrius Andrade: constantly overlooked and underappreciated. Can be ignored with no repercussions because of his highly technical, but not necessarily fan friendly style. Most skilled fighter at 160 hands down.

          Tony toka will definitely be a world champion. I have no doubt about it.

            He definitely has the potential. I've been very impressed from what i've seen from him so far.
