Your opinion here doesn't matter. Spence was on the pound for pound list. Fulton wasn't. That's going to be a historical fact. Your opinion and after the fact rewriting of history won't change that about Spence. Crawford is a two division undisputed champion. Inoue is not. Those are facts.
This is not too devalue Inoue who had a spectacular performance also. He's one of the best I've ever seen. But so is Crawford who I have as number 1 and Inoue as number 2. That's not disrespect at all.There is a multitude of professional boxers, trainers, and journalist that also have Crawford as the numbet 1 pound for pound fighter and I believe he is.
You, and everyone else are entitled to put whoever you want on your list. It's an opinion.
As is mine that Spence didn't deserve to be on the P4P list. Search my posts and you'll see I had expressed this opinion several times well before the fight. I'm not changing anything after the fact.
I don't have any issue with people who want to put Crawford #1. But I think it's disingenuous and unworthy to do so by devaluing Inoue and his accomplishments. I think most reasonable observers can agree that at minimum, we know who the top 2 are, and that we were lucky to get to witness two such performances, let alone in the same week.
And there's nothing factual about P4P lists. If anything, what's factual is that they're opinions, and that they are heavily biased towards being popularity contests that discount the lower weight classes and fighters not from the US/UK. If anything, this week offered solid evidence of what P4P is supposed to look like, and also who wasn't on that level. You can't tell me that Spence's performance looked like one worthy of a guy who was supposed to be only 1-3 slots lower than Bud. It DID look like a performance of a very good fighter who has had 5 title defenses in one division across a decade, who has only had 5 fights in 5 years, with very little fighting a real talent who was levels above. But it was proof IMO that people were wrong to have him on the P4P list at all.
give it up bud
Crawford is number one P4P by a country mile. Inoue a distant second.
No, it's clear it's Inoue the figures show that. But Bud learnt so much from inoues win over fulton. Bud knew he had to approach the same level of dominance inoue displayed and the jab needed some oomph
Hed have to show and prove it by beating someone stronger than spence. Spencevwasnt a dominant WW.
When pac signed to fight spence, no floyd fan was saying "wow, if pac beatsspence pac must be no1 pfp, and above floyd, let alone pac must be goat? It was more along lines of "pac is broke, he doing it for money, not legacy"

Almost 2 decades on this site and you're still just as dumb as ever.
Spence wasn't dominant otherwise he'd have moved up ages ago. He's got some good wins but he barely could be described as dominant in them.
Inou e was dominant and that's why he's in the division he is in now, rather than what was it, straw weight he was in before or whatever it's called

It's easy to point out that Inoue is one fight away from his second undisputed, and fought the #1 unified champion in his divisional debut, rather than settling into a division, and earning a lone title against a guy who benefited from a robbery vs Pacquiao, and not fighting for undisputed for 5 years and 7 fights.
And Spence didn't deserve to be on the P4P list in the first place, with his limited resume. He was only there because of American media bias.
As I said, I don't have a problem with Crawford being #1. But I don't think appreciating Crawford's sublime performance requires devaluing Inoue. It's ok though. Crawford is at the tail end of his career. Inoue will continue to prove why people who overlook the smaller divisions are idiots. People said the same things about Pacquiao too. If you can't see greatness in both performances, you don't understand or appreciate the sweet science.

Yeah crawford punches are hard because of tampered gloves do you remember the margarito-cotto fight?
Your so full of chit it’s unbelievable
Just like your accusations
You are the biggest fughin fool on this site
Funny how you repeat the same bullchit over and over and over when your fighter doesn’t win
Your worthless pos that is the truth
No different than a racist , just spinning a different tune
hahahhah you're getting butthurt mate Well i've been saying this for a year that spence was just a media hype and his PEDS couldn't withstand crawford tampered gloves and i was 100% accurate with my assessment.
canelo was probably p4p by far at one stage and look what happened to him, he moved up & fought a guy who may not have even been on any p4p list at all
Only cause he was at 168 which was super weak

Buds cheques in post to you. But only way we find out is if bud signs to fight charlo in next fight.
When your pf P no1 people put high expectations on what they think you can do. Nel o was favourite against bivol. Inoue was favourite againstbfukton, and inou e would be favourite in 5th division too.
Crawford would be favorite against Jermell.
I’d favor Crawford over Jermell Charlo easily right now.

Put your money where your mouth is, Inoue would be betting favourite if he stepped up another division. Bud, not so much.
Inoue is no1 pfp.
