Canelo has better resume and rivals than Crawford tank and Inoue at the same time...
Inoue never fought against a top-20 Pound for Pound fighter
He also lost to Bivol and is ducking his Mandatory.
He has several gift fights that many people though he lost.
Canelo also waited for GGG to be Gennady Grandpa Golovkin and probably lost some of these fights, Inoue and Crawford have KO all to become Undisputed, no controversies.
Inuoe has beaten all the top guys in the division he has faced, it's not his fault people don't rank the oppenent higher

People including myself tend to forget but his first fight in 122 was on July 2023. It is July 2024 now and in that one year span he had three fights, and will have four fights in a span of 14 month come September and potentially five in 17 month when the end of the year comes.
Looking at the other P4P guys, Usyk, granted mostly because of Fury's issues, is scheduled to fight three times in 16 month from August 2023 to end of 2024 IF Fury 2 doesn't get pushed back.
Crawford will fight twice in 13 month (Spence in July 2023 then Madrimov in August 2024) though the blame can fairly be spread to Spence moreso. Still, I'd say he would likely only have two fights come end of the year, with a very slim outside chance of a third if Saudi pays up something for December.
Canelo is extremely active by comparison to Crawford/Usyk, with likely four come end of the year from May 2023 on, but activity amount is never the complaint he gets, it is the lack of Benavidez and Morrell while playing around with joke matches like Charlo from 154 or god forbid rumors like Eubank.
Bam is also active, with three fights since April 2023 on and hopefully a fourth later this year against Martinez or Tanaka.
Beterbiev as of now is a once a year fighter who fans are crossing fingers the October match against Bivol happens to give him three fights in 2 years.
Bivol is also crossing fingers that October occurs giving him three fights in 2 years.
Tank fought twice in 14 month span (Garcia on April 2023 then Martin on June 2024), but with no guarantee that he fights again this year.
Spence last fought in July 2023 and is currently retired until otherwise noted.
Nakatani will have his fourth fight since May 2023 tomorrow, and probably get one more fight after tomorrow making him the likely only other champion with a potential for 5 fights in the similar time span.
In other words, even if the Inoue-Doheny is ignored as an existence, Inoue is still in the group of the most active fighters of P4P which fans probably will prefer over the inactive ones by comparison.BoxWhere likes this.
