      The only one saying spence should be number 1 is spence. Also Mikey is a 140 champ. Rigo is 40 and Brook is a nobody

        They love to ignore that this fight made 4 of his last 6 fights above 135. Its amazing

          Yes he does, Spence actually beat on a former Featherweight and still couldn't KO him.

            To the dummies talking about Mikey fighting at 140, his last fight before Spence was Robert Easter Jr. at lightweight. So he indeed moved up 2 weight classes.

              Spence is getting credit because of the nature of how he won. He won using his boxing IQ and skill to outclass this master boxer.

              Lomachenko did the same to Rigondeaux and receives some credit for it.

              GGG was getting lit up and outboxed until he was forced to just bulldoze and use his size advantage.

              And of course the obvious, Mikey Garcia had a belt 1 weight class below Spence.

                Very few will give credit or critisize all three
                I give the proper credit and criticism to all 3. FYI.

                  Well no one is saying Spence is no.1 P4P, So doesn't really have a point there. But it's funny to me that the LDBC, particularly EGO, won't give Loma credit for beating Rigo (Despite him picking Rigo to win), and then he comes out with a video asking why Spence isn't getting credit for beating Mikey. Well if you're not going to give GGG credit and Loma credit, why expect any for Spence?
