It is a race thing, since networks and promoters are trying to heavily promote European fighters over black and brown fighters. The winner of the Ward-Kovalev fight was suppose to crown the P4P king in Boxing and then the media and net works immediately turned on Ward and changed their tune after the results. Ward won a close fight and then was criticized for winning. Roman Gonzalez was beating nobodies in 3 different weight classes and barely beat Estrada and Cuaron. And while Estrada is a great fighter, he's not as accomplished as Kovalev, Victor Postol, or Felix Diaz.
And Ricardo Lopez didn't have a perfect record since he had a draw. Floyd has NO LOSSES, and NO DRAWS. Which is why his 50-0 record is more impressive. Forget the fact that Floyd was a Lineal champion in 4 weight classes, beat more world champions and unified two divisions at the same time in two different weight classes.
You lost me at Felix Diaz and Postol being more accomplished than Estrada.

Estrada started achieving more after his loss to Gonzalez. But beyond that, Roman Gonzalez was beating nobodies and overmatched opponents. He did nothing to justify being the number 1 P4P boxer in the world.
