    A few months ago I would have voted for Joshua, but right now Warrington is the best.

    Warrington just defeated another prime, top featherweight in Frampton, to add to his earlier win this year over a prime top featherweight in Selby.

    Joshua's wins this year were both very good, but it should be taken into consideration that Povetkin is faded at age 39, and Parker since then lost to Whyte.

    Josh Warrington was the underdog against Selby and Frampton which makes it even more impressive that he beat them.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    Wazza has unquestionably had a magnificent year but the question was who is the best fighter, not which fighter has had the best year.

    As David Price was cruelly missed off the list (I can only assume that Fielding was missed off to make it fair on the other fighters) Josh Taylor gets my vote.

    I would throw in a few who are still top-drawer just having aggro.

    Billy Joe Saunders, Ryan Burnett and Kell Brook isn't done yet.

    On another note what's with the name Josh? Next year the top five could be...

    Josh Taylor
    Josh Kelly
    Josh Buatsi
    Josh Warrington
    Josh AJ
    3-Time SADDO PREDICTION COMP CHAMPION.

    I voted for Fury because of his comeback from such a long way. But I was and have always been IMPRESSED with Warrington. He is gonna make some money in this game.

    I always root for David Price, he seems a nice bloke. He was managed poorly in the early part of his career by that stupid tranny, with many long months between fights he was winning by KO 1.

    Tony Thompson tested positive for PEDs after that first KO loss that derailed David's career.

    I voted for Callum Smith because I reckon he’s the best in his division. Was tempted by Josh Taylor because he’s a great Boxer , but he needs to win his World title first.
    Former Undisputed 4 belt Prediction champion. Still P4P and People’s Champion.

    If Tyson Fury rematches Deontay Wilder, and decisively beats him, he might establish himself as the UK's best fighter. But he's not at the present time.

    Benn. Always and as a given .

    Josh Taylor for me. As far as putting hands and feet together and pure pro execution, yeh. Fury also by grabbing the boxing media, division and making himself center.
