Curmel Moton names Shakur over Inoue

Recently, Curmel Moton took to social media to make a post about a Q&A session. In this tweet, he simply wrote, “Q&A,” to allow his fans to ask him questions about his opinion on things. The fans had a variety of questions to ask of the young boxer. However, one question stood out. One fan asked him to share the list of the top five pound-for-pound boxers in the current era of boxing.

Answering the question, his list placed Terence Crawford at the very top with Devin Haney placed in the runner-up position. Next, he gave the third position to the Baltimore native, Gervonta Davis. Interestingly, he chose to place Shakur Stevenson in the fourth position despite his recent performance, a point which several fans pointed out. Moton concluded the list with the Japanese super bantamweight champion Naoya Inoue placed in the fifth position.
