Usyk vs Crawford P4P

Right now I have: 1. Usyk 2. Inoue 3. Crawford 4. Bivol 5. Bieterbiev 6. Bam Rodriguez 7. Canelo Depending on IF & HOW Crawford wins, will determine for me if he moves up to #1 or #2. A dominating win over a top 7 p4p opponent that gives him a 4th unified undisputed title warrants a move to #1 imo. If Crawford beats Canelo he's P4P #1 by a mile. He'd be just the third 4 division lineal champion in the history of the sport after Floyd and Manny. He'd be just the fifth 3 division undisputed champion after Fitzsimmons, Canzoneri, Armstrong, and Ross (all fought before the WBA/WBC split) He'd be just the sixth 5 division world titlist in the history of the sport after Hearns, Leonard, De La Hoya, Floyd, and Manny It's rather unlikely that Crawford beats Canelo, but there's absolutely zero argument against him if he pulls it off. I don't care if it's by split decision on a last second flash knockdown. Starting at 135 and becoming undisputed at 168 is absolutely absurd stuff.

Crawford us highly overrated. His best win is shot Spence. Spence didn't look very shot against Yordenis Ugas or Danny Garcia.

Both guys (as well as Naoya Inoue) have a credible case for P4P #1. I currently have Inoue #1, but I wouldn't disagree with anyone who says Crawford or Usyk deserve it. I especially wouldn't argue with Usyk himself. Here are their resumes (TBRB rankings used, secondary and interim belts ignored entirely) Terence Crawford: W vs #3 Ricky Burns UD 12 (fmr.

Crawford us highly overrated. His best win is shot Spence.

I think Crawford is the most skilled fighter in boxing which is what Usyk is likely referencing. In terms of resume and accomplishments though, I think Usyk is the clear #1 at the moment.

If Crawford stops Canelo like some people are saying he could be the GOAT.
