Kattar has very good offensive Boxing but he does get hit a lot. I have to think about it. It might be Masvidal overall.

Cheese I think you chose guys that are more kick boxer. Kattar, Adesanya, McGregor are all good at managing distance but non of them as the dodging skill that boxer have. They get punch in the face a lot. 

Cejudo, Yan, fight more in boxing style. I dont think theres guys in upper weght class that can outbox top 10 boxer. Maybe Romero, or Ngannou by knocking them out quick! 

In an opposite way, I think every boxing champs get destroy if fighting a top 10 UFC guys in the cage.

Haha like overall or on a given day at his peak Junior Dos Anjos was amazing likely best.
If you count the jab GSP has to be on the list when he was around but primarily volume.
Cejudo couldnt punch his way out of his own wet tampon he is a wrestler only with decent reflexes.
Killyashaw is 10 times the kickboxer at least 5 times the boxer cheater or no.
Defense and technique Jones is way up there just no power.
Cormier is pretty good if only he trained like an athlete lmao.
The current and future champ was an am champ and is good also poor defense "Stipe"
Anderson silva in his prime may have been best of all ludicrous counters great head movement.
Jorge is good but knees and jumping attacks not boxing sorry kids.
Isreal is overrated top 10 boxer still, reyes has pretty sweet hands doubt power would carry with bigger gloves.
Dustin is very good almost "Over Trained" as a boxer for an mma fighter.
Justin is good he may climb to top 10 after next outing still his attack is predicated on lots of leg kicks.
Mac very predictable now he uses a kbox/tkbox style to add more weapons.
Kattar as stated good offense not pugilism Zabit, holloway, aldo, volk all good.
Frankie in his prime great boxing, still pretty good.
Wow got verbose simple answer bare knuckles or gloves Dustin is best boxer pound for pound in mma.
