      • Shakur Stevenson (yep already)
      • Tank (I wasn't sold on him at 1st & I'm still not 100% but I'm leaning towards he very well might be.)
      • Errol Spence Jr.
      • Terence Crawford
      • Deontay Wilder (I don't think he's nice but his power might really be all he needs)



      Honorable Mention:
      • Haney (I think he's the goods but I need to see him in the trenches)
      • Usyk (not sold on what he'll do vs better competition)
      • Teofimo Lopez (Gonna say about 25% out of 100. I feel like he'd beat Haney but I feel Haney will fair better as he moves up in weight)
      Most of the guys you list are or were special in my opinion. Nothing at all special about Farmer. He can't punch hard and has bad losses on his record and no very good wins. Not special at all.Andrade is not special with no special wins at all, Wilder is not special, A huge puncher with lots of flaws. Stevenson is not special either. The rest are indeed special to me.

          The special talents in boxing are:

          - Crawford
          - Inuoe
          - Shakur
          - Anthony Joshua
          - Rigo (but he’s past his prime).
          - And Loma and Haney are borderline special. Loma is very good but I’ll like to see him dominate someone his size. Haney has been great lately, perhaps due to matchup but I watched some of his fights two years ago and I wasn’t that impressed.

            I only consider Inoue and Crawford as special fighters. The rest are just good.

              • Errol Spence Jr.
              • Terence Crawford for what he's done in his last 2 weight classes and for everyone else avoiding him while he's a belt holder at '47
              • Deontay Wilder (I don't think he's nice but his power might really be all he needs) As much as I've harped on the guy, his GOD given power is INCREDIBLE

              I bolded those who i think.....as for your honoble mention, I think Ennis should be in there, as well as Spence.

                Canelo Alvarez.

                There are a lot of great fighters, but when you state the term 'Special' I assume you are speaking about? Hopkins, Jones, Mayweather type ability etc It is only really Canelo Alvarez who comes close to that level of ability currently in the game.

                Note: I still think Canelo Alavarez will be beaten in his next fight against Sergey Kovalev.

                  For me the only truly special ones at the moment are Loma and Inoue. Alot of great fighters on that list but thats how i see them, great fighters but not special. Although to be fair to Manny Pac hes been special for years hes just lost that extra what ever now that made him special. Still quality.

                  From the younguns im convinced Devin Haney has the potential to be the best thing weve seen since Floyd. Very exciting.
