Why is GGG considered "elite" but not Spence?

There a lot of boxing fans, across the board, who states that Spence isn't elite but GGG is. I want to know why? GGG has the edge in power, jab, chin, and maybe footwork but that's about it. Spence is the better counter-pucher, just as good at cutting off the ring and fighting on the inside, he has the better defender, and he is much more athletic. Can someone explain to me why Spence doesn't get as much credit as GGG even though he has the better resume and has been more consistent? Have you not seen my "Central Asian" name posts? It's that simple. GGGDork has a bunch of baby belt title defenses like Erislandy Lara but they compare them to Hopkins and say the clown is Hall of Fame worth. Serious Joke! Imagine if he was GGGeorg from the United Kingdom. You know what they would be saying.

ggg isn't elite at all. Every time he steps up in competition, he either gets beat or have controversial fights where he should have lost like jacobs and derevyanchenko. He has never beaten a top guy clearly. Spence has fought most of the best welterweights and have beaten them clean. If spence and ggg are at the same weight hypothetically, spence would demolish him.

Uh, because the forum's so racist and anti-american if you point it out you'll get a parma-ban, duh. -Marchegiano Mmm Parma ham.

Wow a guy with a pic of Jake Paul is actually smart! I’m just teasing you. Thanks for chiming in with some facts, bro! Respect! I just have Jake in my avatar because I think it's funny. There's so much nonsense in boxing forums I figured sporting Jake in my avatar and doing some light humor cheerleading for him every once in a while would not be the most ridiculous thing in the interwebs.

spence never been considered number 1 in the division, scraped past porter by skin of his teeth Spence has been #1 at WW for years.

Both are untalented idiots who just throws inaccurate 1000 punches. Their high output keeps them alive. Spence's career achievement is giving black eye to Floyd during "sparring". Floyd was probably at his 10%. GGGeezer's career achievement is losing to Canelo twice. How is this troll not banned yet? What are the mods doing?

I’m very confused.

A lot of these people don't even know what elite means, they just flick bs around to discredit fighters while arbitrarily deciding who they want to label elite to suit their agenda Wow a guy with a pic of Jake Paul is actually smart!

Current fighters: 154 Charlo, Donaire, Usyk, Canelo, J. Taylor, & Crawford. Honorable mentions Naoya Inoue, Haney, and Stevenson. Spence I better than Charlo, Taylor, Donairr, and Canelo

Who do you consider elite Ggg was most definitely elite when he was being ducked he's obviously past it now Current fighters: 154 Charlo, Donaire, Usyk, Canelo, J. Taylor, & Crawford. Honorable mentions Naoya Inoue, Haney, and Stevenson.

What are you smoking? Look at Spence's place on the P4P lists and look at Golovkins.

I don't consider GGG elite. Hope that makes you feel better. As for Spence, if he beats Crawford he's Elite but if he don't, he and GGG are about dead even. Who do you consider elite Ggg was most definitely elite when he was being ducked he's obviously past it now

Ggg was ducked Spence is ducking crawford

They are both elite in their weight class. If your talking about p4p neither one is elite.

Smfh the guy that has been the MW Champ for years is elite or he used to be anyway. He’s about shot now. Spence has 3 belts at 147. You guys are being kind of disrespectful to be honest.

Because Stone Cold says so! Cash in

We need context. A group of white supremacist saying GGG is elite but Spence isn’t, doesn’t count. It’s not valid. Otherwise, I haven’t seen Spence labeled as non elite.
