Comments Thread For: A New Number One: BoxingScene Pound-for-Pound Update

[Combat Talk Radio]

Talk about not knowing boxing. Cliff Rold, You wack.

I like Crawford but Thurman has a better resume, is Champion & undefeated so how is Bud over Keith? Is it cuz he is a Top Rank fighter? How is loma in the list with 10 fights, only 2 good opponents he fought & has a loss, is it cuz he a TR Fighter? lil g has two losses in a row & has a weak resume berore those two losses so how is he in the list period? Nelo has a better resume than all the fighters on this list & only lost to T.B.E. so how is h not high on the list?

This is how people that "Don't Know S**t Bout Boxing" get confused......believing these kind of P4P Lists.....espn sux too....

Number 1 should be GGG no doubt about it, I wouldn't complain with Rungvisai taking 1# though because he prove it back to back beating the 1# rated P4P guy unlike Crawford who has fought nobody good at all and has yet to prove himself as an elite fighter so far he is simply a good fighter in a weak division nobody can deny this.

Mostly agree with these guys.

I can't put Minny Pacquiao - Rungvisai - as #1 YET. But there's NO WAY IN HELL he should be lower than Estrada. FFS the man has TWO wins - one a BRUTAL knockout - over a guy who on your last P4P list was #1 I believe? Hypocrites.

Crawford has some names on his resume, but by and large they were B level fighters with the possible exception of Gamboa. I can't put him #1 yet, not at least until he beats someone who's truly a threat. Even if he fought Manny that wouldn't put him up there because Tentative, Risk Averse Manny is not a threat. Maybe if he fought Garcia somehow?

Spence not on the list somewhere is a joke. I'd yank Santa Cruz.

I'd also yank Rigondeaux, he ain't done anything worth noting in recent history, why are we still rating him so high?

[TreJac]

Only idiots have Crawford or lomachenko as #1 , they've fought nobody, ...to be number one pound for pound, you have to beat pound for pound fighters, and neither of them have done that..

If that is the case, only GGG who beat Canelo and Srisaket who beat Roman Gonzales would be on the list. Mickey is way to high at number three. Canelo is not top five p4p. I would have GGG number one followed by Crawford. Thurman should be top 5 and Santa Cruz should not be on the list.

[BigStomps]

Gamboa talented but incredibly small
GGG win over Kell Brook tops that

The Africa Ndingdong doe awful technique and with no good wins on his record

Postol is the only half decent one he has and that's it, half decent nothing more nothing less and in that fight Crawford fought negative as hell and put on an absolute sleeper of a performance which was nothing to sing home about.

Crawford is also fighting in the weakest division currently in boxing right now another reason why Crawford shouldn't be 1#, but yeah we get the agenda Americans just want another black boy to be your #1 to stroke your fragile weak ass little ego lmfao.

For your information I'm Mexican 100%!
But I keep it real. You don't have to agree with me but that's who I got #1 P4P. If you think Triple g's win over Brook tops that even though Brook was moving up two weight divisions then that's your point of view.
I explained why I have Crawford #1.
And I didn't even mention Crawford's win over another gold medalist in Felix Diaz.
I knew some people would disagree with me but that's okay.
We all have different opinions.

[BigStomps]

Good post. Crawford is the complete package and has defeated 3 undefeated champions. I have him as number one as well. I find that Thurman doesn't seem to get as much respect as he should. He should be in the top 5 with his wins over Porter and Garcia imo. Peace.

I totally agree with you. I do have Thurman top 5 but his only downfall is he's not active enough. He fought only once last year and once this year. But those wins over Porter and Garcia definitely puts him top 5.

[Butch.McRae]

Thurman should at least be top 3. Politics though...

[koolkc107]

I love watching Loma and Triple G fight but neither guy has earned top 5 P4P.

Hell, the only reason Golovkin is in the top 10 is for his fights THIS YEAR.

I did like that Mikey was at #3, exactly where he is on my personal list.

Again, to be P4P it helps a lot if you beat other P4P or elite guys.

And in my book, the better the guy you beat, the higher you get ranked.

Activity does factor into it, and ducking fights might get you taken down or off.

With all that said (and probably criteria I am leaving out) here is my current P4P top 10.

1) Crawford
2) Spence
3) M. Garcia
4) S. Alvarez
5) K. Thurman
6) Kovalev
7) Golovkin
8) Usyk
9) Lomachenko
10) Rigondeaux

[BoxerDood]

No complaints about Crawford at 1. What I really don’t understand is how Santa Cruz and Rigondeaux are here but not Anthony Joshua.

[takenotes]

Thurman should be up there.

[j.razor]

Number 1 should be GGG no doubt about it, I wouldn't complain with Rungvisai taking 1# though because he prove it back to back beating the 1# rated P4P guy unlike Crawford who has fought nobody good at all and has yet to prove himself as an elite fighter so far he is simply a good fighter in a weak division nobody can deny this.

So how can lil g be #1 when he fought 35 straight easy fights & stuggling his last two fights which I saw him lose? Bias....?

[j.razor]

Well, what can I say other than LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL

the Irony in your last paragraph is amazing.
And who the fk gives you Green K? Have never seen you post anything close to sensible or non biased. Oh well, that's the Internet for ya

The irony of your whole comment....You just mad T.B.E. beat # 48.

Learn to except the truth.
