After signing a slew of the world’s best fighters in the last year, including lineal heavyweight champion Tyson Fury, unified bantamweight champion Naoya Inoue and unified super lightweight king Josh Taylor, Top Rank may have the most talented roster of any promoter in the sport.
Top Rank also promotes champions Vasiliy Lomachenko, Teofimo Lopez, Jose Ramirez, Terence Crawford and Artur Beterbiev. They’re among the greatest fighters in the sport.
But perhaps the most talented, and the one with the greatest potential to be the next Canelo Alvarez or Floyd Mayweather, is a 17-year-old whose afternoons are spent not in the gym but behind his computer completing his high school studies.
