    Where is Teofimo P4P wise now?

    He just beat the P4P no1 guy in a close fight but clear in my eyes. Is he P4P no 1? I just dont find Teofimo very impressive to be honest. He is good and legit, don't get me wrong. But I dont see him elite like Crawford, Spence, or Canelo. He seems like just a big guy for his weight class. Kind of like how Miguel Cotto was and how Cotto would get less dominant as he moved up weight divisions and no longer had a size advantage.

      I can easily see Teo being level with Canelo Spence and Crawford

      Canelo is on the shallow end of great

      Spence and Crawford are what I call very good fighters. Just shy of great

      Given what Teo has shown so far at only 23 no reason why he can’t be greater than Alvarez down the line

        Top 5 but definatley not number 1.

        Like OP I was glad he won but I wasn't blown away with the performance, he has a lot of holes that better fighters than lomachenko would expose.

        He's only 23 though so I don't expect him to be the finished article.

          Could learn to fight inside and dirty

          Teo would look over to the ref uncomfortably whenever Loma busted out a “veteran move” inside the trenches

          A thug like Maidana wouldn’t care. Every classy boxer fights a thug sooner or later

            It's really hard to say because it's an earth shattering win beating the top PFP guy as a huge underdog, yet it's hard to catapult him to the top 5 just yet with a limited career.

              First off any non biased person knows canelo is and always was number one you noobs eat this BS up with the fake news media.

              Canelo is the only p4p number 1 just like the ring magazine says.

              Lopez is number 3 behind manny

                Yeah I was dissapointed he had no idea how to use his physical advantages up close.

                  fair enough

                  And still very good for a 23 year old with less than 20 fights

                    I don't think so.
                    Good win vs a severely overrated, overhyped fighter who might not even be top 3-4 in his own division let alone P4P #1
