Bivol, Usyk, Crawford, Inoue and Shakur are the sport’s best boxers.

Inoue and Shakur though don’t got the same chin as the other three, but I think Inoue makes up for it with the best punching power of the group.

Shakur name don’t belong :manny:
I can see why people would say that, we’ll have to see him against the best competition.

I only say it because him and Bivol have the lowest opponent connect %’s. I think that accounts for something, but can’t say it definitive until he fights another big name.

If you think you're lonely now, ohhh girl...
that cardenas knockdown was just something else...that was no flash..monster got CLOCKED!!

That was a huge punch. It reminded me a bit of the left hand that Valdez knocked out Berchelt with. One of those looping left bombs after evading a flurry of punches that the opponent never sees coming. :wow:

But for Inoues defense he’s a little dude that moved up four divisions already and his style is more fan pleasing boxer/puncher. He’s not the safety first type of fighter.
