    While Inoue's performance was great, I was a little reluctant to label him no.1 before the weekend. I think the manner in which Crawford beat Spence makes him the p4p #1. I feel it was a more dominant performance against a more accomplished fighter even though Fulton is closer to his prime than Spence.
    Real talk

      I respect that.

Otherwise how do we measure a prime Stephen Fulton versus a possibly damaged Spence? etc, etc. Not an easy category to determine.
        What's your 5?

        I got bud, inoue, usyk, Canelo, jermell

            It could be argued Fulton lost his first real step up fight against Figueroa or at worst a draw. Spence wasn’t damaged against Ugas or Garcia he looked phenomenal. It’s extremely easy to determine..

              When pac signed to fight spence no bud or floyd fan said if pac beats spence how amazing itd be. It was more along lines of pac isvdodging bud for car accident victim cherry picking spence,needs the money he's not interested in.legacy? Of course boxing fans thought it'd be amazing but read all the resident bud and floyd fans comments.
              So I don't buy the spence hype one bit.

                Shit! It's not even close. Bud Crawford is hands down the best P4P fighter in the world. Not only did he defeat an undefeated and fellow top 10 P4P fighter in the world but also collected his second undisputed crown in two separate weight divisions in the four belt era or in any era in the process.

                  Yall gotta stop acting like monster made some crazy weight rise. It's 10 f#cking pounds.

                  Bud is number 1 p4p
                  Inoue first titled at 108.

                  Myself I think P4P is daft conceptually but I think the 3 best boxers in the world right now are Usyk, Inoue and Bud in no particular order.

                    Crawford has always been the longer guy, his entire career.

                    Inoue has moved up and dominated vs bigger champs.

                    For me Inoue is more impressive in the last 5 yrs.
                    Crawford has unified only 1x in the last five. Inoue has done it 6x.

                    Inoue #1 Crawford #2

                      10 pounds is a higher body weight percentage for Inoue than 12 pounds for Crawford though.

                      Also, Inoue was a champ at 108. That’s 14 pounds.
