WHO IS THE WORLD’S BEST MIDDLEWEIG­HT, OTHER THAN GOLOVKIN OR CANELO?

-

Lee Markham I think Billy Joe Saunders is the best middleweig­ht outside of Golovkin and Canelo. If he lives the life a bit more, looks after himself and stays more active, I can see him possibly beating Canelo in the future. Wilky Campfort Besides “GGG” and Canelo, I think guys like Daniel Jacobs, David Lemieux, Willie Monroe Jnr, Andy Lee and Hassan N’dam N’jikam are the next best fighters in the middleweig­ht division. Antonin Decarie In my eyes, the top guy after Golovkin and Canelo is clearly David Lemieux. His devastatin­g power, his underestim­ated speed and his crowd-pleasing style make him an undoubted top contender. Steve Kim Based on his showing against Golovkin in March, it’d have to be Daniel Jacobs. In fact, many would probably rate him above Canelo based on their actual track records in the division. Another name to look out for eventually is Jermall Charlo.
