Last I saw Mikey Garcia he was celebrating a 12-0 shutout loss at the end of every round. Shawn Porter's had some entertaining scraps with Thurman and Spence, but he's lost them both. You don't get on the P4P list for being a lovable loser. Danny Garcia doesn't have a single significant victory at WW since moving to the weight 3-4 years ago. He's lost to Thurman and Porter at the weight.
Taylor just unified two belts at 140 and knocked off three undefeated guys to get there. It's his time now. If he was to move to 147 and embarass himself like Mikey and Danny did, he'll get removed from the list too.Comment

Lmao I was just about to say that to him but you beat me to it!
Love Crawford but the more Bob is unwilling to make concessions to make fights with everyone else other than Spence the more it hurts Bud’s legacy at 147 and his standings on my p4p list!
He was my number 1 and he’s slipping away the more others put in more quality work!
He’ll drop even lower if Loma beats the winner of Commey/Lopez or if Pacquiao beats Danny Garcia especially if it’s a stoppage!Comment

My list is about quality of win(s?), circumstances, weight classes proven in, and skills!
-Canelo is number 1 which is self explanatory
- Usyk is number 2 due to him cleaning out his entire division and beat all the champs there who were in their prime and in their hometowns then moving up to heavyweight and gotta stoppage over a heavyweight in his debut
- Loma is 3 due to him being champ in 3 divisions and beating quality champs. Unified majority of the titles in his 3rd weight class and beating a top contender for one of last 2 titles in their hometown.
- Pacquiao is at 4 cuz his overall body of work and longevity is simply marvelous. He is the true definition of pound for pound. Oldest welterweight champ in history, defeated a undefeated prime champ who was considered #1 at one point. His legacy is set but this just added to an already remarkable career.
- Crawford is 5 due to him being 3 division champ and unifying all titles at 140 without any problems. Made everyone look like journeymen but we’re champions. First fight at 147 against a rugged champ and handled him like a child. No ones tested him, everyone’s been outclassed. He’s slipping due to quality of opponents slippage from his resume but still solid enough work to keep him high.
- Estrada is 6 cuz he beat the boogeyman of his division who was also the number 1 in his division and who destroyed the former number 1 guy p4p after losing to him in a very close fight and avenged the lost by boxing his ears completely off. Deservedly so took it easy since but look for him to unify titles soon an move him up a notch if he wins. Quality all around operator who’s in his 3rd division and is a 2 division champ.
- Spence is here cuz for a long time no one in his division of prime quality wanted to fight him to prove his worth. Enter Shawn Porter (who I have in my top 15 p4p) in a modern classic for the ages, Spence defeated the best version of Porter we’ve ever seen with a clutch signature left hook to score the lone KD which won him the fight in an extremely close match. This netted Spence unified titles as Porter was a two time champ.
- Beterbiev debuts in the pound for pound due to just absolutely demolishing a prime undefeated champion who was the lineal champ an considered #2 in the division in a helluva fight where Beterbiev unified titles and now beating the man that beat the man. Not to mention he showed he has more tools in his toolbox than just coming forward and punishing opponents.
- Taylor also debuts on the pound for pound list due to his performances in the World Boxing Super Series tournament where the best must fight the best! He has been on an absolute roll by defeating 3 undefeated fighters in a row, 2 of them legit champions with the last being for unified titles and the tournament trophy with bragging rights for being the best in the division.
Taylor defeated a prime undefeated champ who was considered the boogeyman of his division and the best. He also was an underdog in a classic war that will be remembered for ages which saw him getting the win in an extremely close match!
- Last but not least Inoue is 10 due to not yet having that signature win. He’s destroyed everyone in his path without peer. He’s in his 3rd division and is a 3 division champ. Unfortunately he’s in the World Boxing Super Series Tournament where his best opponent of his career will be against the aged past prime legend Nonito Donaire in the finals for two titles. In a win as expected won’t do much for Inoue’s standing but outside the tournament is where he’ll make his presence felt in the boxing world!Comment
