Roy Jones lost his spot when he lost by a disqualification, so I am ok with it. If canelo wants it again, let him work for it.
Canelo dropped to #6 p4p with 1 loss?

You gotta understand most we're itching to see canelo lose out of hate for where he's from. So yea they jumped at the chance to crucify him.
No surprise there.
Canelo is still p4p #1 until he losses again because no one in boxing is taking the fights and risks he takes.. not even close.Comment

The p4p is a skill ranking, who is the hardest man to beat in boxing if we take away weight disadvantages. We know that Canelo can't be the hardest man to beat because multiple smaller men already proved that they were on his level or better - Trout, Lara, GGG, Floyd. If Canelo is #1, then Trout, Lara, and GGG have to be 2, 3 and 4. Clearly they're not. Nobody has ever come close to beating Terence Crawford and as a fighter he is just superior to Canelo in every way. Fundamentals, his jab, hand speed, foot speed, ring IQ, distance, timing defense. Usyk has amazing fundamentals too which allowed him to beat a many 20lbs bigger than him, which is something Canelo has Never done, he's never even beaten a fighter 1lb bigger than him.
Well you can't say people are idiots because p4p is subjective anyway like you thinking Crawford is p4p when i think Usyk is p4p. Dont have to demean people so much for having a different opinion at least he has fought better competition than Crawford albeit past there best with some dodgy scoring.Comment

What privilege did any African American or caucasian fighter ever have fighting canelo? Was it the rehydration clauses or stipulations in the contract? The judges unfairly scoring the fight for canelo? The tens of thousands of Mexican fans screaming "canelo" and shouting threats at the black or European fighter? Lara getting BOOOOED by 20,000 drunk fans every time he slipped a punch? The 20,000 fans constantly screaming "B****" to Lara in Spanish?Comment

Because Crawford hasn't really beaten anybody of note Porter was a decent win but i've never rated Porter that highly anyway hes just a tough brawler with relentless stamina not exactly a wizard in the ring. Listen if Crawford beats Spence he will get my respect 100% until then he seems like one of very few fighters who are allowed privilege of the eyetest when most fighters don't get that luxury.

He was beaten by a guy with 19 fights? Loma slid all the way off the charts on ESPN P4P rankings after his loss to Teo. After his win over Commey he is now their #8. Loma is #7 on Ring Mag P4P right behind Canelo.Comment

Your ignorant bu!!shyte never ends. Your hero gets dominated in a fight he was heavily favored in and you post garbage like “ most in the media had Canelo winning” and now after getting dominated you say Canelo is still p4p #1. Stuff like that is just plain ******.You gotta understand most we're itching to see canelo lose out of hate for where he's from. So yea they jumped at the chance to crucify him.

I was about to post the same thing. It's ESPN, he's the wrong skin color and he doesn't fight for their network.
You have Crawford who fights can after can and he's #1 according to them? What a joke.
woke black privilege strikes again.Last edited by El_Maldito_Rey; 05-12-2022, 12:15 PM.Comment
