        Elite? Crawford, Loma, Usyk, Inoue. That's really all I have for now.

        EDIT: And Mikey Garcia.

          I agree with this. When it get to world Level ‘the eye test’ isn’t really a thing - it can’t be.

          How would someone like Winky Wright or Carl Froch look on an eye test? Really it is all about finding their level which can only be found by fighting the best opponents.

          Crawford and Spence cant know their level at all.

          I think I’d have the same that people mentioned Canelo, GGG, Usyk and Loma

          You can’t make decent arguments against those 4.

          I can’t stand 147 division - it’s the Shawn Porter division. The top dogs just all just sit on the sidelines until he picks them because they think he’s basic. I’ve never set down a p4p but I wouldn’t put 10 stone 7 fighters in there

                The Leo-Russell winner.


                It'd also put Santa Cruz in the Top 5 P4P list if he comes out the victor in that fight.

                    No "Elite" men at this time.
                    The words Elite and Great have lost their real meaning on this forum.
                    Every era has their "best" but that doesn't mean their best translates to all era's.

                    There are a few very good talents in the past 10 years but elite is not a description of anyone I can think of.
