I either have to go with Frampton, Charlo, or Sittichai for this one.

Frampton unified titles at 122 and went up and fought a top featherweight titlist at 126 and won a competitive fight.

Charlo beat Trout (who is a solid and tough fighter) and beat someone in Julian Williams who a lot of people thought would be a good challenge for him as a young champ. Knocked him out in convincing fashion.

Sittichai just for the volume of fights in one year and beating van Roosmalen (who would go down to FW and win a belt) and Grigorian.
