    Explain to me why other active fighters who are putting together a fantastic year should lose a spot in the top ten because of an injured Thurman? How is that fair? You having an inactive Thurman on the list is like penalizing a fighter who is putting together a great 2018 year, but instead of him on the list, it's Thurman.

    It doesn't make Thurman any less of a fighter. It's just that he's injured, so he's lost a step in the rankings. He can easily get his spot back.

    I'm sure plenty of others agree with me.
    The one thing that has gotten me this far in life is not caring what others think or who agrees or disagrees with me.

    You don’t get moved off of the pfp list because of injury. Nobody made him vacate. He did that on his own volition.

          I disagree.

          I think Thurman has earned his spot on Mount Rushmore.

            THIS

            And in all honesty, he was barely in the top 10 in 2017

              #1 Loma
              #2 GGG
              #3 Usyk
              _______________

                I mean no disrespect, but can I ask you why Crawford deserves to be no. 1? It's not a challenge I'm just uninformed, I guess. I saw his fight against Gamboa and was very impressed, and some early fights he totally dominated against low-level guys, and his fight with Horn, which was good although I never expected it to go any other way and didn't see it as a huge challenge. What's the reasoning?

                    Lol. But he hasn't done anything in 16 months, regardless of the reason! You can probably name at least 10 fighters who have had a great run in the past 16 months.

                      I think some will put him ahead of Loma because he beat Salido and Loma didn't.
                      Totally agree with this
