Shavkat.
Khamzat has legal troubles and is burdened by his political affiliation, which can make things real tricky with fighting in general. Also, Shavkat is already in contention together with Belal. He could possibly get it over Belal. While DDP is likely to get the TS at MW first and who knows what happens between now and the title fight after Strickland vs DDP.
It's not about who is the better fighter, but all the other factors that go into it
I don’t think the question is who is the better fighter, it’s How is Shavkat so damn superior to everyone he has fought that he is able to beat everyone with impunity. This guy is the shark in a pond full of goldfish. He threatens their extinction and he is the one to worry about if you’re Leon.
Nothing against goldfish.
Whoever gets there first title shot, will be champion imo.
