People move from one weight class to another all the time, they move mainly because they cant make the weight in their previous weight classes and welter weights have moved up to challenge and win the MW championship many times. Sugar Ray Robinson ring a bell? I guess he wasnt a real MW either, or SRL or Hearns or how bout RJJ? Rj started at JMW, I guess he is just really JMW.

Ridiculous statement. People move weight classes.
Canelo fought at 164 the fight before GGG anyway, so lets not act like he was a JMW. You could go through plenty of resume's and do that. It's like saying Canelo beat a lightweight and a super-lightweight when he beat Khan and Cotto, because they fought there in the past. It's just nonsense.Comment

After Ward retired, it was an awkward situation with no clear #1, but GG sorta got it by default. I felt he was #1 at that point. Since then, Loma has surpassed him. If Ring refuses to acknowledge that, then it's another reason why no one takes Ring seriously anymore.Comment

Canelo came down in weight for him and Jacobs has fought at 168 before.
Having said that anyone that still has GGG p4p #1 ahead of Lomachenko after Saturday is hard to take seriously. It's clear he's a higher level of fighter and with a Linares win has already got a better resume. I also think it's clear Crawford is a superior fighter and he's at a higher level currently though his resume you could argue isn't as good as GGG's yet. I judge p4p more on "If all were equal size who's the best?"..Comment

p4p #1 floyd had a streak where he fought baldomir, a 140 pounder moving up and then a 135 pounder moving up 2 divisions. you can make anything sound bad(floyds run was bad compared to ggg's since he fought 2 legit top guys baldomir is lol)Comment
