#2. Max Holloway - former UFC featherweight champion
Max Holloway has shown why he is one of the most exciting fighters in the promotion. With eight knockout wins in his UFC career, the Hawaiian has dominated his opponents with his boxing.
Famous for this high-volume striking, 'Blessed' scripted history against Calvin Kattar last year by landing 445 significant strikes on target - the most by any fighter in the promotion so far. He also holds the record (2848) for the highest number of significant strikes landed on target.
Additionally, he has one of the strongest chins in the business and has not been knocked out since his debut in the promotion. In his last fight against Yair Rodriguez, he absorbed 159 strikes and yet went the distance to win the contest. The bout, incidentally, entered the record books for registering 389 strikes between the fighters - the third-most strikes registered in a single UFC fight.

#1. Kamaru Usman - UFC welterweight champion
Judging by his current form, UFC welterweight champion Kamaru Usman has the best prospects of finding success in boxing. 'The Nigerian Nightmare' has a 15-0 record in the promotion and has outstruck most of his opponents.
Although the Nigerian is primarily a wrestler, his striking has exponentially improved since he switched camps ahead of UFC 251 to train under Trevor Wittman.
The move paid dividends as he outstruck Jorge Masvidal 94-66 in his next fight to win unanimously. Since then, 'The Nigerian Nightmare' has been on a rampage. He bettered his performance against Jorge Masvidal during the duo's rematch a year later.
A minute into the second round, Usman struck 'Gamebred' with a solid right hand that knocked him out cold. Interestingly, it was Masvidal's first loss by knockout in the promotion.
Since his fight against Colby Covington at UFC 268, Usman has been calling out Canelo Alvarez for a boxing match.
Although Alvarez has shot down the idea, Usman seems ready to take on the best in boxing for the time being.
