    I think the problem is Thurman's inactivity. Fighting only once per year he barely keeps himself eligible for P4P status, regardless of titles. In terms of wins and quality of opposition I'd rank them about even.

      Thurman beat porter, DSG, Robert Guerrero, Luis Collazo, Jesús Soto Karass, Carlos Quintana. Not the best but known fighters. The good wins were Porter & Danny Garcia. Cant dispute that.

      Loma does not belong on any P4P List with 10 fights unless he beat at least 8 champions out of the ten fights that he has had.
      Lmao, no he ***in didn't.

            Are wins over Murray, Lem & Jacobs that much better than Shawn Porter and DSG?.
            I think GGG's resume is much better. GGG has 19 successful title defenses winning 17 of them by KO compared to only 7 successful title defenses for Thurman with only 3 wins by KO. Thurman's wins over Garcia and Porter were very close while GGG knocked out both Lemieux and Murray. I think GGG beat Canelo by 116 to 112. Nobody has ever hurt GGG while Thurman has been hurt several times. I think Jacobs and Canelo are better fighters than anybody Thurman every fought. All things considered I think GGG's resume is much better and deservess the number 1 spot although I wouldn't argue with someone making Loma or Crawford number 1. Thurman has an excellent resume and I have him in the top 10 PFP at number 10. His resume might be better than Spence's resume but my eyes tell me Spence is better than Thurman so I rank him higher than Thurman PFP.

              I don't rate dsg all too high but I actually think he should be somewhere around the bottom of the 10 p4p list. I can see him going up to 154 and beating all the belt holder and be at least 50/50 with Lara

                Thurman needs to be on people's p4p list, if you don't have him you might as well not make a p4p list anymore..

                That said GGG's resume > Thurman's.. you can't cut it any other way..

                IMO #1 p4p with Ward gone should be Crawford..

                The poll results are funny though..

                  Yeah but it's just one win. Algieri is also a good win but Pac and Khan already beat him.

                  I think when Spence puts the scalp on Thurman then the debate is over. Spence will have to be in the p4p #1 conversation.

                    They're pretty even

                    Golovkin fought 5 World champions, Thurman 6 World Champions

                    Canelo stands out the most in both of their resumes but Golovkin had a draw against him

                      When did Jacobs become a great fighter? Wasn't that long ago fans were calling him a chinny bum because of the Pirog fight. Leading up to the fight the consensus was that he would be another easy TKO victory for 97G. Now he counts as a great win? What happened?
