    I know but you only cite rankings when it suits your agenda.

    It really doesn’t matter, Fulton’s resume is no where near Spence’s.

      Spence was thinking he was gonna just steamroll lil Bud but he got that ass taxed once he set foot in the ring. In this rematch, Bud is going to stop him early just to prove a point and make it look easier than last time. Bud's ability to adjust is his secret weapon, you can't train that stuff, you have it or you don't and most don't.

        like, when did we start rating Danny Garcia and Mikey 147 so highly?

        Porter was a trash name for Bud’s resume, but he’s a great win for Spence when the fights were 11 months apart lol
        Or based on the fact that he was?

        Spence was ranked on the P4P list on every single P4P list there was.

        You can disagree but it doesn’t change the fact that that’s how he was regarded on all boxing publications.

          But yeah, Fulton, Rodriguez, Tapales, paper champions. Jeff Horn, Indongo, elite
          I have never called Indongo or Jeff Horn elite; However, Errol Spence, Jr was. In any case, has any of those guys ever made the P4P list?

          I believe Fulton has but I am not too sure.Also, didn't Stephen Fulton win a controversial decision against Brandon Figueroa; In which most boxing fans felt that he lost?.

            Which is the reason why both myself and Antonio Tarver believe that he is the best #1 P4P fighter in the world today.

              Geez I wonder if it has to do with Tarver not knowing a single fighter under 126? Or if it has anything to do with Terrance being a fellow African American?

                It's downright shameful that any self-proclaimed boxing fan would try to downplay the resumes of either one of these fighters.

                Crawford is 14-0 against TBRB/Ring ranked fighters, 10-0 against world titlists, a 3 division lineal champion, a 2 division undisputed champion, and a 3 division world titlist.
                Inoue is 13-0 against TBRB/Ring ranked fighters, 13-0 against world titlists, a 2 division lineal champion, a 2 division undisputed champion, and a 4 division world titlist.

                There are only a handful of active fighters you could even put in the same conversation as these two, resume-wise, and most of them are at the very end of their careers. Donaire, Chocolatito, Estrada, Nietes, Ioka, Canelo. That's about it, and only Canelo is still close to his prime among them.

                  Spence never beat anyone any good (beating Garciand porter, don't mean your worthy of pf p status) and was only in one division so how can.he be only 4 places below inoue on the pfp list?
                  Let's face it it's only because he's in a historical glamour division he was that high

                    That’s objectively false.

                    If Spence has beaten no one good, who has Fulton beat that’s good?

                      Tarder throwing himself a little to deep here
                      I have no problem with any of the two being #1 or 2
                      I do think that Bud obliterating Spence deserves a little more recognition
                      And please don’t come back and give me that bullchit about Spence being one eyed and drained
                      No ne mentioned that when Spence beat Ugas and Garcia
                      Why now ?
