Predict who will be P4P #1 over the course of the next five years

2016- Pacquiao(win over Floyd) 2017- Canelo(win over GGG) 2018- Canelo(win over Ward) 2019- Canelo(win over Kovalev) 2020- Canelo Good job man (besides the Pac beating Floyd)

Big time Ward Fan. 5 year predictions are tough to make. I’ll be retired in 6 years Trying to avoid unexpected costs Jhonny my top pedigree chihuahua will be dead. I'll keep remembering wimmin from my past Ward!

Who will be P4P #1 over the next five years on the 1st of January? Jan 1, 2016 - Floyd (beats Manny on May 2nd and another opponent in Sept) Jan 1 2017 - Sergey Kovalev (finally beats Stevenson, Pac-May-Klit retire) Jan 1, 2018 - Crawford (Cleans out 140, wins first belt at 147) Jan 1, 2019 - Crawford Jan 1, 2020 - Crawford - GGG never becomes #1 and hovers around #2-5 - Thurman loses eventually - Garcia loses eventually - Bradley sustains decent career but never becomes #1, - Canelo hovers at #5-10 - If Ward comes back and beats Top 175 fighters, he probably takes #1 spot - Brook and Khan might enter list but only in the top 8-10 unless they get a shot and beat Floyd/Pac - Felix Verdejo gets knocked out by a Mexican in Puerto Rico That wasn't a bad shot at all. Verdejo DID get stopped by a Mexican fighter in his first loss and went into federal prison for something you'd swear only happens in horror movies.

Errol Spence Jr, Sadam Ali or Amir Imam...one of those kids is going o be 1 # P4P in the future you best believe that. As far as the near future goes, i can see Keith Thurman, Terence Crawford, Danny García & Saul Alvarez taking over the top spots at the P4P list.

andre ward

Will be 39 and if he hasn't retired yet, will still be hiding at 122 fighting Asian fishermen. The Donaire win will be long forgotten by then. So probably not. Ooof... so knowledgeable.

Crawford? IMO no Probably ward

Felix Verdejo, Errol Spence, GGG or Lomachenko. Either one will be at the top in the next five years. Oscar Valdez is a bum and Canelo (like cotto) will get beat up by GGG

I remember being there LIVE for Salido-Juanma I in PR and Calderon-Segura I in PR...damn those tough SOB's! :rofl: Anyway, good post on describing and adding small information here and there, but I really think you're reaching with Crawford sustaining #1 spot for three straight years. Everything else seems on point. Khan could perhaps crack the top 6 or 5 with how he's had a tendency to take on risky fights not needing to, though.

errol spence jr easily ggg and crawford will be up there too

Rigo.......................

ever hear Crawford talk? he sounds boring... he needs to work on his PR game because to become P4P you need to show some personality to get some big fights.

2016- Pacquiao(win over Floyd) 2017- Canelo(win over GGG) 2018- Canelo(win over Ward) 2019- Canelo(win over Kovalev) 2020- Canelo

Ward isn't even as talented as Loma, wonder who else will come along in 5 years tho

Andre Ward would be the odds on favorite, he already cleaned out the 168 division. If Kovalev beats Adonis he would have a better recent resume (Ward has sat) GGG will be in the discussion if he keeps crushing the cans and champs at 160. Those 3 have the easiest route, anyone at 140-147 has to go thru a deep division (unless they duck), so it would be hard for Crawford (who got out box by Gamboa early and rocked later) to clean out the division with limited power at weight. Thurman looks good but I still need to see him in with Maidana, Khan or Brook before I'm completely sold, he hasn't faced a legit threat yet, so we don't know if he is the real deal or a Broner/ Berto. Andre Ward has been sitting too long. His past glories happened 5 years ago and no longer figure in his rating. The guy has to start over and build his reputation up from scratch. Right now I rate him no higher than any fighter starting out at SMW.

Lomachenko easily, he's the only future legend talent out there right now. Would be shocked if it's anyone else.

Jose Ramirez will get crowned in 2018 by defeating Felix Verdejo in brutal KO fashion and then he will reign p4p#1 for the next decade.

Verdejo no doubt.
