Obviously Shavkat is the betting favorite I would say overall in the WW division.

But out of the three I mentioned.

Who do you see has the best chance in being a WW champ in the near or distant future?

I would love to say MVP - unfortunately seems there's yet to be an answer to the Storley method.
 
All 3 are unlikely.

Not Ian Garry. The guy looks so shaky anytime he can’t just point fight and circle, or his gameplan goes to crap. He copies other people’s homework when making a gameplan, so probably won’t work against Leon or Shavkat.

If JDM can stop jumping gillys like Poirier he may have a good chance, but Shavkat would probably maul him in the clinch and wrestling.

Michael Page could possibly catch Leon or Shavkat, but that’s about it. He basically has the punchers/kickers chance.
 
None are really champion material but WW is kinda thin atm with a lot of declining fighters so it's not impossible.

MVP is the best pure striker of the 3 but I don't trust his grappling and tdd.
Garry is good but needs to stand his ground more. All that backpedalling and running is eventually gonna lose him fights.
JDM has good hands and did well on the ground against Burns. Seems like the most dangerous and well-rounded of the 3 but also the least athletic. Think I'll go with him.
 
Shavkat hype is unreal right now. Leon is special and will outclass him.
He really is teetering on hype that doesn't match his skillset.

I get it that the Neal fight was hella fun to watch but people have really been in denial that it seriously exposed some of his weaknesses in boxing range. The wonderboy win couldn't tell us anymore about it because he went straight for Wonderboy's weak grappling in that fight. Leon is a no weaknesses type of fighter, so it's gonna be interesting.
 
Della by far. The most well-rounded. I was really impressed by his performance against burns. He is a bull on his feet and he did quite well on the grappling department against probably a top 3 bjj in the ufc. Pretty remarkable.
 
I think MVP could beat Leon but Garry has the best chance of getting through the contenders
 
JDM out of the three.
Shavkat will still be overrated after 3 title defenses, just how people shit on Usman lately. It is the Sherdog way.
