Comments Thread For: Canelo's Stumble Shakes Up The Pound-For-Pound Opinions

Clearly this is a man ESPN/top rank list. Jermall Charlo should be on there and pretty high. Tank should be on there as well.

Tyson Fury is a top 10 pfp fighter…….but he isn’t number 1. Canelo was never deserving of being #1. We all know that Bud is number 1. Josh Taylor isn’t ranked in my top 10 pfp.

I'm thinking maybe thisustvwas compiled just to spark a reaction/debate?

If not it's a very poor listing.

[Raggamuffin]

My top 10 pfp.

1. Bud
2. Spence
3. Canelo
4. Inoue
5. Fury
6. Usky
7. Jermall Charlo
8. Beterbiev
9. Benavides
10. Stevenson

Just outside the top 10. Bivol, Navarette, GGG, Jermell Charlo, Kambosos,, Lomachenko, Estrada, Chocolatito.

Agreed. Bud should be #1. I remember Lomachenko saying a few years ago that he considers Bud #1 back when Canelo was on top. Now that Canelo has dropped, Bud deserves to take that #1 spot.

I wouldn't consider Tyson #1 P4P either. Simply because he has a big size advantage over every opponent he faced. That defeats the purpose of P4P, which is to compare different fighters as if they were the same size. If Fury wasn't so physically big, he wouldn't be so dominant like he is. Not to take anything away from his skills, which is impressive for a man of his size. But the fact he always has such a big size advantage doesn't make him the P4P #1 in my eyes.

Also, how is Bivol lower than Canelo? Bivol just dominated Canelo. But then again, Canelo is the naturally smaller fighter, so I can see why some might still consider him higher on the P4P rankings.

[just the facts]

Who else is taking chances like Nelo is ?

So taking a chance vs a 6-1 underdog and losing badly keeps you at #1 P4P? No…………….

That 6-1 dog would literally kill everyone GGG fought.....including GGG.
That loss > Bud's W over Porter.

Put it in perspective.

[Silence]

Anyone who ranks Crawfish #1 is an idiot. He will retire with Porter as his biggest win. Lol.

1- Oleksandr Usyk
2- Canelo Alvarez
3- Jermell Charlo
4- Terence Crawfish
5- Naoya Inoue

[Elastic Recoilz]

Canelo got badly exposed as being one dimensional with terrible stamina - he also is a convicted PED cheat. He should be as far away from number 1 spot as is possible.

Agree on the ggg angle but how does that make Canelo P4P #1?

So landslide losses are greater than stoppage wins? No……

And Crawford isn’t my #1 either.
