Not a huge pound for pound guy myself but isn't that for everyone bar the heavyweights?
Fury has to be ranked higher than Canelo p4p

Sorry but NO.... as "good" as Wilder was as a HW, someone as ridiculously limited as that would not be regarded as a top win in the lower weight classes. Fury deserves to be on the p4p list but I don't think he deserves to be number 1, that is just another case of recency bias. Also his resume lacks depth compared to other top p4p fighters.Comment

Not yet, but that he isn't on the top 10 P4P is an insult.
The new Ring ratings need to reflect & acknowledge the skill level of Fury.Comment

Why? For defeating an overachieving and a limited fundamentally sound fighter with no boxing ability.
Also, for one who would lose to Heavyweight pretenders like Michael Grant and Jameel McCline; Really? Are you kidding me? Are you serious?
You will want to give Fury credit and make him the number 1 P4P fighter in the world just for defeating a overachieving bum like Deontay Wilder?
The point is and I don't even like Canelo Alvarez but Tyson Fury's resume pales in comparison to Ginger's when it comes to fighting top notch competition and notable opponents.
Wladimir Klitschko is the only notable opponent on Tyson Fury's resume. Deontay Wilder doesn't count because he was never shit to begin with like you say.Comment

Would he? If he was 5-6 135 lbs you dont think he'd be faster and even better boxer than he is now? The guy is a giant and shows skills of a guy 100 lbs less or more at times.
P4P is ****** anyway but I'm gonna disagree with your assessment of his skill compared to the smaller guys on the list ...Comment

Wlad was p4p #1 for a while when Floyd retired, wouldn't that same argument apply to him?
Fury is also a highly, highly skilled operator in the ring, and that's regardless of weight. There's only him and Crawford who can switch hit, and Fury is by far the best at it.Comment

I posted exactly what you said I should post in the Kovalev DUI thread before you asked me too.
Not sure why you asked me too though.

Good job! I’m not sure if he’s number one yet but he’s definitely higher than Canelo.
