    Why is Spence on p4p list?

    It is not logical at all. This guy has been in one and only one division all his life.

    Ok, when he beats Crawford, than he belongs there, just like Bivol reached it beating Canelo.

    If Spence already belongs to p4p, than Beterbiev and Fury also should be there.

    I've thought this more than once also. He doesn't dominate his opponents like Inoue does also.
    He's stubborn and hard to best and has some decent wins under belt but a pf P fighter must be dominating their division that you'd predict them to do well in higher divisions too. In that sensevspence not really got off first base

      Monster is unbelievable. he iced unbeaten champ in his first fight in his new division. Nobody is doing things like this.

      Spence is highly overrated. He is not even destroying guys in his own division like Beterbiev does it at 175.

        P4p isn't real, you can end up being the best in your weight division though, so Saturdays fight is important in that regard, even then you have to beat the new guys if you don't retire or move up.

          It's crazy that he's in alot of the top 5s for some. My list he'd be bottom 3 maybe number 10

            Welterweight is historically the best division in boxing.

            Whoever the king of that is, especially if he's undefeated, is usually P4P ranked.

            Just by virtue of being a long reigning unified welterweight champion, he belongs there.

            He's beaten former world champions like Shawn Porter, Mikey Garcia, Danny Garcia, Kell Brook, Lamont Peterson, & Yeordenis Ugas.

                his reasoning is off:

                One weight class your entire career disqualifies you from p4p

                using his logic no heavyweight ever was a p4p

                a fighter as great as Hagler wouldn’t be p4p either

                  147 is my favorite followed by 200+ and 160.

                  Below 126 is a tough way to earn a living. They can be the best but won’t get nowhere near the amount of attention as 135+ fighters

                    He's big for the weight, too.
