And then when Usyk beats AJ a second time to defend his unified Heavyweight title after being undisputed cruiser champ? Will his claim be better than Crawford v Spence winner?
It is only since he moved up to welterweight has his resume, not been the best. But there is really nobody for him to fight. The divisions is not as strong as it once was etc.
Eroll Spence Junior in comparison has fought stronger fighters at welter weight, or opponents when they were stronger. Spence Junior beat a way stronger Kell Brook & Shawn Porter than Crawford.
I also think considering his circumstances Spence Junior win vs Danny Garcia is his best win in his entire career.

Not to me. Usyk is great, no doubt. I respect AJ as a heavyweight, but not in the p4p sense. Pence and Crawford are in a different league then AJ skill wise.
Spence and Charlo 2 undisputed fights can prove you correct. If he is over-rated, everyone would fight him, right. The problem is in sports skill recognizes skill. His opponents know what they are facing vs. the fanboys. It's like Andrade is doo doo but the whole division of 160 finds a way to not fight him. I mean you get to beat an undefeated Olympian and is easy money doo doo but you don't fight him? skill recognizes skill.
Problem with Andrade though is he doesn’t help himself. He’s rejected fights with Jermell, Korobov and now Zhanibek who were all ranked top 10 at the time. He’s like the boy who cried wolf. Talented fighter no doubt but he has to take ownership have his terrible resume. His only top 10 wins are Vanes #7, Sulecki #9 and Williams #10. That’s simply not good enough.
All he has to do is fight/beat Spence then the tide will turn right now he doesn't have that solified win to make him top dog of the devision so until that gets sorted we can't say who is best. Hopefully they can get it done this year.
