There are multiple guys on most peoples lists that aren’t even champions. But an undisputed guy that has been making good fights for 8 years isn’t, absurd.
jermell did what was needed in the rematch with brian castano. it made jermell the top guy in the division & undisputed but for me he lost the first fight. the austin trout fight is another fight i thought he lost. that is why he wouldn't make my list but since the erickson lubin fight jermell has been fighting good opponents. artur is a guy i think should be on more lists
I’d go all the way back to Vanes Martirosyan. In 2015 Vanes was a guy at 154. I don’t think considering the first Castano fight a loss should disqualify him. He avenged it and almost nobody thought he lost to Tony Harrison. So his record is about right. I think anyone that is undisputed needs to be elevated for that, it’s why they do it
vanes was nothing special. jermell avenged what i thought was a loss in an emphatic way but i still thought he lost the first fight & i didn't have brian castano listed before or after that fight. i don't think anyone that is undisputed needs to be elevated. naoya isn't undisputed but there is no need for a paul butler fight. i think jermell is heading in the right direction, just not quite there for me yet but much better than his brother
