Best finishers.

A little while ago I posted a question about fighters who were the best finishers of all time. So I am now asking the same question again, so this time I am aiming at current fighters. Who would you say are the best finishers in boxing at the moment?

And Stephenson. What a fight that would be - explosive.

Kovalev would mutilate Stevenson and Adonis knows it.

I think Kovalev wins as well. I'd love to see it though, you wouldn't dare blink.

I'd certainly watch it, I'm happier with Kovalev/Hopkins.

The obvious ones are GGG and Kovalev. AJ, Beterbiev & Usyk for the future.

I think these are offensive big punchers who hit with precision like GGG and Kovalev. Not so much defenssive big punchers, like Stevenson, Donaire, Haye or volume punchers like Maidana, who can stop you with one punch but are not as good in finishing the wounded opponents.
