    Degale, Khan and Fury - P4P Top 3 within 12 months?

    Degale is surely high up on most people's p4p list already but with one more win of a Dirrell level opponent surely it gives him a shout at being at the very top of the boxing world?

    Khan just needs to continue to try to make fights with the best fighters in the world as he's done throughout his career, hoping that he doesn't back them into a corner where the fight or flight syndrome kicks in and results in them retiring unceremoniously from the sport as seems to have happened already with two highly rated P4P fighters recently.

    If Fury beats Wladimir he surely boosts his p4p rating considerably, maybe even getting in at the number 3 spot?

    What's the P4P landscape in 12 months? Do Degale, Khan and Fury claim the Top 3 places or would Fury not quite make the number 3 spot due to the comparatively weak division he's in?

    Khan can make it with a big win over likes of Thurman type of opponent, DeGale definitely not anytime soon 168lbs division is weak so really its hard to judge how good DeGale really is.

        Sure, they have a good shot at being the p4p top 3 fighters fighting outta the U.K. its,arguable they already are in fact. But that's about it.

            If all win their next fights I don't see why all couldn't be on the P4P list.

              I dunno about top 3 but if Fury beats Wlad, he is p4p, no doubt about it and pretty high if he stops him.

              Khan, with a win over Pacquiao would most definitely be top 10 too, or with wins over Brook and Porter/Garcia, he gets in.

              DeGale is probably the toughest one...he would have to beat Ward, no other name at 168 is worth a p4p slot just now. Unless DeGale looks a class everyone from now on.

                  Paths are available that could lead them there, but outside of DeGale I doubt it. Fury will have to beat the wheels off Wlad, which I doubt, and he would need a decent defense to show it was'nt a fluke. Khan would need a win over Pac and Brook, again I doubt it, but that would certainly get him there in my book. DeGale needs to destroy Bute, and get a unification fight, which is very doable.

                    LOL @ the idea of Khan ever being on the P4P list.
