    I don't like the list. Canelo #3, after a PED pop and a hotly debated razor thin decision over Golovkin? Spence ahead of Rungvisai, who has the best resume of any P4P fighter? Golovkin at 7.. while Canelo at 3? There is no logical argument why they're not back to back. Inoue at 7.. uh. He's not proven enough. I don't see it. LSC has been on BoxingScene's P4P list, but I disagree with it. He lost against Frampton, barely avenged the defeat, then has fought nobody since.

    How about Gvozdyk and Callum Smith, who rule their divisions and have good resumes?

      Garcia and Sta Cruz should not be in P4P. More deserving boxer to be in place like Joshua and Wilder...

        Omar has been fighting at WW and SWW so I cant see him making 140. Garcia has no power at WW. He couldnt keep them honest and respect his power. He needs to back to JWW. Or better yet work back down to 135 where his power was good at and he still has a belt.

        Barios would be a good fight?
        I prefer do his mando against Cambell. Try make fight with Commey. Then Loma for all the belts.

          I just can't see Mikey going back to 135! I know he did it for Easter Jr., but I think Mikey has been having trouble making 135 for some time, which is why he went to 140 for Broner and Lipinets! Barrios is WBA #1 contender! A win would set Mikey up as mandatory for the winner of the WBSS Series! And which one of them would NOT want to fight Mikey Garcia?

            This is tru? If he cant make 135 then I guess we can kiss the Loma fight goodbye. Thats why I was hoping he would work way back down.

              Really poor list. What has spence done to be so high and joshua isnt even on the list? Joshuas been just as dominant and has fought better ranked fighters. Fury has two of the best underdog performances by anyone in boxing and hes not on the list. Oh yeah, they are from the UK so it doesnt count. Oh and ggg loses a close decision officially in a fight most thought he won so he drops down to 7th.

                That ship sailed a long time ago! Even if he goes back to 135, that fight is not gonna happen! Did you see the comments Arum made after the Spence Jr. fight?

                  Very solid list, Cliff.

                  It's immensely frustrating that we haven't seen Leo Santa Cruz vs Gary Russell Jr yet. And we might not see it at all if LSC moves up to 130.

                  Al Haymon/PBC really dropped the ball on this one.

                    P4P lists should be updated monthly based on latest performances of boxers just like in chess rankings!?
