GQ’s Most Stylish Man Showdown Round 3: Vote for 2018's Best-Dressed Man
It's that time of year again: the race to determine the Most Stylish Man of 2018 is well underway. We've reached the Sweet 16, which means that every last gentleman here has proven his bona fides at awards shows, courtside, and while gently confronting the paparazzi. You're well into deciding which ones did it best: the elite eight are a who's-who of well-dressed dudes, from A$AP Rocky to The Rock to big daddy Jeff Goldblum. But who will move on? Vote below in these eight remaining match-ups, and be sure to weigh in on your favorite stylish dudes right here and on GQ's Instagram Stories before voting wraps up at Noon EST on Tuesday, December 18th.
Trevor Noah vs. Ryan Reynolds
Late-night hero Trevor Noah handily dispatched Gucci vintage king Alessandro Michele, and now he'll face Ryan "Deadpool" Reynolds, who knocked off Henry Golding in the second round. Finally, we'll get an answer to an age-old question: which suit is more stylish, the red-and-black superhero one, or a classic navy single-breasted?

Jeff Goldblum vs. LeBron James
Poor Tan France never had a chance. Jeff Goldblum is a seasoned vet in this competition, and ran away with their Round 2 matchup. His reward in the Sweet 16? None other than the King himself, LeBron James, fresh off knocking off Cole Sprouse. In the NBA, the 33-year-old LeBron counts as a wily veteran. Can he pull one out against the impossibly 66-year-old Goldblum?

Nick Jonas vs. Chadwick Boseman
Nick Jonas vs. Drake seemed like a fair Round 2 pairing—tilted, maybe, a hair in Champagne Papi's direction. But Nick is a newlywed, and summoned all his husbandly powers: dude cleaned Drake out. In Round 3, he'll face Chadwick Boseman—who was one of the first to wear Virgil Abloh's Louis Vuitton designs in public, and booted him out of this competition by way of thanks.

Chris Paul vs. Shawn Mendes
Seth Rogen's longshot candidacy comes to a sad end. After improbably knocking off the Migos, the newly-sharp Rogen couldn't work his way past Chris Paul's perfectly-fitting sideline suits. But Paul's got a tough matchup ahead of him in sweet-looking, killer-instinct-having Shawn Mendes, who absolutely whipped Miguel in their second-round matchup.

Michael B. Jordan vs. John Legend
Michael B. Jordan couldn't quite get past Chadwick Boseman in Black Panther to become King of Wakanda, but he did do the next-best thing: defeat literal royalty in GQ's Most Stylish Man bracket, knocking off Prince Harry in Round 2. His opponent: John Legend, who lost web-page voting but absolutely cleaned up via Instagram poll in his battle against Timothée Chalamet.

A$AP Rocky vs. Lakeith Stanfield
You're not going to get a matchup closer than Rocky vs. Jonah Hill: the A$AP Mob rapper prevailed in our closest matchup yet—by a rail-thin margin of 62 votes. Hill will surely be back for blood next year. In something of an upset, Rocky will face Lakeith Stanfield in the Sweet 16, Stanfield having toppled Bradley Cooper, the Born Star himself, in Round 2.

Donald Glover vs. Rami Malek
Glover and Malek's excellent 2018s just keep on keeping on. Glover edged Mahershala Ali in a close-fought fight, while Malek—in something of a stunner—beat out perennial favorite Ryan Gosling. Two of Hollywood's most talented newcomers will now face off for style bragging rights.

The Rock vs. Tyler, the Creator
The Rock's army (including, quite possibly, a whole bunch of actual Army soldiers) mobilized on our Instagram poll to send the Skyscraper star to victory over heartthrob Zayn Malik, despite Malik's win in the on-site poll. And in the battle of young #influencers to determine his opponent, Tyler, the Creator outdueled his Angeleno pal Jaden Smith. The bucket hat is strong with this one!
