P4P is not about belts or even the guys you beat its about your overall performances to the eye in top competition, superfights help build the vision buts its not the whole picture, its how the raters think you would compete if everyone was the same size. pound for pound best , just think about the words then definition instead of your own love hate agenda, its not comparing 1 with 10 its who is in the 10, you just cant stand back and take a non biased view, you are driven by who you like and who you dont like it effects every post you make.
Why is tank davis on the top ten p4p list?

And his best win he put a rehydration clause on itbecause he's popular but yeah his resume is terrible. hes never beaten a top 5 fighter. its a strange thing where the more you win against weak competition the better people think you are even though you are staying at the same level. he only has 3 top 10 wins in 6 and a half years and they were #6, #7, and #9. weak. and when you factor in his cheating weight clauses. deserves no praise at allComment

This means nothing I question why you would say something like this like it means something in the big picture, I can show you the greatest fighters in history dropping rounds to contenders even losing to them, it means zero as far as the top guy not being a top guy, its easy to see why they are putting Tank in their top ten.Comment

Some guys are ranked based on the eye test. PLus he has fought names, just guys he can outsize and out match but Davis is a very good fighter. Skillful, fast and powerful.His best win is ryan garcia and he avoided a prime loma chenko in his own weight class. If he had beaten loma then he would be top 3-5. His 2nd best win is pedraza. Tank should not be in the top ten. Below are fighters who should rank above him in no order.
1.bud
2.canelo
3. Bivol
4. Beterbiev
5. Usyk
6. Inoue
7. Fury
8. Jermell charlo
9. Benavidez
10. Haney
11. STEVENSONComment

Tank continues to avoid the best at 135 and 140, and lost his 130 title on the scale. Snatched a 140 second tier belt from a weight drained Barrios who never beat a world class fighter himself. When he is serious about getting in with Haney, Shakur, or Loma at 135 I might start taking him seriously.Comment

Davis is a very good fighter because he hasn’t been exposed yet. People don’t want to use the facts he’s already struggled plenty while being a cherrypicking fake.Comment

I didn't say anything about Inoue.
A super featherweight coming up in weight to get knocked out? He certainly wasn't a ranked lightweight.
Tank has only won two real world titles. The IBF against Jose Pedraza, and the vacant WBA vs Jesus Cuellar, who was coming up in weight AND coming off a loss. Tank fans have got to stop dignifying the WBA's secondary title crap.
You say Narváez and Donaire are Inoue's best wins. Narváez may get in HOF, and Donaire will almost certainly be a first ballot HOF. Meanwhile Tank's best win is a YouTuber. Almost every guy who could be viewed as a resume entry was coming up in weight. I rate Tank highly on eye test, and he's got real power. But his resume is crap. Gamboa, Héctor García, LSC were all coming up a division. Going after Barrios when Josh Taylor was the man? Give me a break.
I rate all the things Inoue has done.
I simply do not down play one fighter while praising other fighters for doing the same things.
Gervonta is the size of Rigondeaux knocking out ranked jr welterweights. Doesn't matter about the ABC belts. He's doing what he is doing.
Plus you act like he's ranked high. He's ranked on the fringes of the top 10. It is irrelevant.Comment

Tank never won a world title at 135 or 140. He only won regular titles. And dont say they count.
Because if you say they count, then that means Daniel Dubois is currently a heavyweight champion since he holds the exact titles that Tank won at 135 and 140.Comment
