    Pound for pound rankings aren't a real thing. It's opinion based.

    I have no problem with someone who thinks Lomachenko is the best fighter in the world based off of his skills.

    No problem with Crawford as the best either.

    People get too sensitive about pound for pound lists.

      do you really think lomachenko should be ranked higher with Russell martinez & walters? like..........seriously?
      I love Crawford and before that Walters/Loma fight he was ranked higher than Loma in my p4p list but now I just can't pretend like his two best scalps are better than Loma's scalps

      Walters > Postol. I've always been saying that Postol is an overhyped bum, even before the fight, but a lot of people was buying the hype, saying that "bigger" Postol might posses some kind of of a threat to Crawford, lol, like he might hurt Crawford, come on, the mother****er has KO ratio that makes Andre Ward look like a puncher of Adonis Stevenson caliber and his only solid accomplishment was Matthysse win - a competitive fight where you can't even say that Postol dominated or outboxed brawler Matthysse, at some point Lucas was landing some good shots and got Postol in shook and he quit because he injured his eye, not because he was thoroughly outboxed or anything like that. That's it, that's the only accomplishment that Postol has. Walters on the other hand is not a feather fisted Postol, he's fast, he KO'd a former p4p fighter in Donaire, something that Postol would never achieve, so he's way better scalp that ****ing Postol. Postol is a bum, and always been a bum, stop hyping him up to make Crawford's resume look better. I was saying that Crawdord gonna take him to school before the fight and that's exactly what happened, seeing some people on this site trying to pretend like Postol is a threat or challenge was making me angry af

      Nonito Donaire > Lucas Matthysse so Walters scalp > Postol, that's simple


      And GRJ > Gamboa, but only considering the weight difference between Crawford and Gamboa. See, Gamboa is amazing talent, way better than GRJ but Crawford had huge weight advantage in the fight and that played the role in later rounds and helped him to get a KO, but Gamboa still managed to make it toughest challenge for Crawford, Terence even said it himself. Lomachenko dominated a talented prospect in GRJ, it wasn't even competitive and he had no weight advantage so even if Gamboa is way better talent than GRJ, I still rate GRJ scalp higher because of that


      I'll say it again - Crawford was rated higher than Lomachenko in my p4p list before Walters fight

        how does russell have any better resume then Beltran who broke burns jaw?
        martinez russell walters is better then

        lundy
        burns
        Dulorme
        gamboa
        Beltran

        unified/postol?

        are u on drugs my friend?

        the problem is crawford has put in more work then lomachenko and undoubtedly deserves to be higher.

        and don't get me started on golovkin. lomachenko is higher then golovkin with 7 fights for goodness sakes
        All bums and Postol isn't more dangerous than Lemiuex If Crawford fought someone as game and dangerous and Lemieux his chin would likely get smashed that and the fact Crawford wouldn't have a weight advantage over him.
        Sorry buddy but Bud is just a product of American hype it kinda shocked me how negative and scared he had to fight to beat Postol why couldn't he KO that guy?
        Not impressive one bit whatsover.

          True I think it's just because people are upset that the majority of people rate Golovkin as the best fighter in the world they get salty they want it to be you know who
          Saltiness
          Man these people have been in a constant depression since Floyd retired bet they hope he will return

            It's pretty close. I'm not sure I'd put him over Crawford tbh. Byt they are at about the same position on my p4p list.

              Has Crawford been dominated by a guy with 13 losses and five by KO? OK then.

                Crawford's biggest win is Gamboa and he was getting outboxed in the first half of the the fight. Loma lost to Salido though Salido was overweight. I could see both sides of the argument.
