Comments Thread For: Jermell Charlo: I Don't Get The Respect I Deserve; I Guess In The P4P, You Gotta Be Liked

Bud hasn't beaten Spence, nor any other WW Champion since Jeff Horn, and he's ranked #1!

i was mostly alluding to your original point - that Usyk and Inoue are overlooked by Ameri-centric orgs and fans - I have Bud top 3. Spence lower as I said. No way can he seriously be claimed to be #1 P4P

[Satir]

You got beat by Vanes, lol, what p4p list are you even talking about

[4truth]

Spence is his friend, stablemate, and they share the same trainer, no shxt, he's not going to fight him.

So what?? This is a crappy excuse if there ever was one, one by the way, Charlo has never made.

Maybe he hasn't thought of it yet?

I keep telling you, he doesn't need to say anything about it. He's constantly talking about how Spence and the Charlos are going to take over. Does that sound like someone that he would fight? He's at almost every Spence fight, they workout and spar together, its not going to happen. When Spence moves up, Jermell will either move up to 160 or vacate a belt, so that Spence can fight someone else for it.

Jermell has beaten everyone he has fought by knocking out the guys he rematched with and unified the titles. That is worthy of a top 10 PFP ranking.

pound for pound is just an opinionated list. you're more than welcome to create your own list and put him on it. everyone is allowed to make one. you can even rank him number 1 if you want.

They fight once a year and they want respect. They're seen more outside the ring than inside.

Or better yet, look toward the most respected PFP list and see if a fighter is there or not.

I think Charlo is a victim of a trend in the boxing establishment that seeks to prior up non Americans regarding the p4p list oddly led by ESPN for some reason. Maybe because most of their top fighters are foreign

what makes espn's list more respected than ring magazine or boxingscene or tbrb or boxing talk (lol, i dunno if it still exists) or any other "published" list? what makes aladdin freeman more of an expert than anyone on here posting their list? or ben baby...."Ben Baby is ESPN's NFL Nation team reporter focused on the Cincinnati Bengals." or eric woodyard..."Eric Woodyard covers the Detroit Lions for ESPN's NFL Nation team. In his current role, which he assumed in April 2021, he provides Lions-centric news"

it seems like you don't agree with the most respected list leaving jermell charlo off.
