How many divisions actually have a champion?

[BitPlayer]

That is one fighter. Undisputable, the best at that weightclass.

Crawford stands out.

GGG is probably the next best, he should have won against Canelo.
But then again it was still officially a draw and Canelo still has The RIng belt.

I can't think of anyone else.

clearly AJ.

[BitPlayer]

clearly AJ.

No, he's the No.1 but he hasn't come close to clearing out the other challengers yet.

winner of cruiser tournament will be next closest

The belt thing is such a sham these days.
I think you have to make up your mind who is the man based on resume, rather than the belts they have. So many protected belt holders who never seem to match up against the top guys.
It sucks for younger boxing fans having all this ABC confusion. When I first started watching there was one champ. Then 2 belts, then 3, after that and up to now it just gets sillier an sillier.

The guy who is accepted generally as best imo. Though some will not be close to unifying

Heavy - Joshua
Cruiser - Usyk after the wbss
175 - nobody
168 - nobody
160 - GGG
154 - nobody
147 - nobody
140 - Crawford
135 - Garcia
130 - Loma
126 - nobody
122 - Rigo

Anything below I don’t really follow

For the nobody weights, I couldn’t put degale, Spence etc as it’s too disputed whose best. The guys with there name by a catergory it’s hard to argue against them being the best imo

For sure. Good call, anything else is too hard to make a clear top dog. It's a shame the SMW of the WBSS was missing a couple of names, otherwise we would have a SMW top dog early next year

Very few weight classes ever have a Champion who really has a stranglehold on the division anymore.

Crawford at 140 and GGG at 160 are the only ones that come to mind at the moment in that they're both THE MAN to beat in their weight class, and Crawford is almost certainly moving up in weight next time out.

As others have the winner of the Cruserweight bracket of the WBSS will definitely be Champion there. I wouldn't look for the winner of that Tourney to stay at Cruiser very long though because the bigger money at Heavyweight will be calling, and the winner of that Tournament will have already cleaned out the division more or less.

Linares vs Garcia would crown a True Champ at Lightweight I'd say.

Lomachenko vs Berchelt would do it at 130.

ggg-canelo and ggg-jacobs was close enough that you cant say ggg cleaned out and is dominant like crawford. charlo a threat too.

[gilgamesh]

ggg-canelo was close enough that you cant say ggg cleaned out and is dominant like crawford.

He's been the man to beat in the division since Canelo was still competing at 154. He's still the man to beat now. If Canelo wins the rematch, he then becomes the man to beat.

[SaadOffTheDeck]

None of them.
