      Loma was p4p because he was a champion in 3 different weights and on the list for the 4 years. Lopez diddnt do chit other than beating loma and commey. In that case hurd should have been on it when he beat harrison trout and lara.

          Ring Magazine is America centric and so is their panel, you need to do a lot more as a fighter from outside continental America.

          Also its a ****ing magazine why does anyone take their list seriously

            ESPN and the Ring both have a fairly US centric Bias that's why no big deal.

              Can Josh Taylor move up to 147 and beat a washed Manny Pacquaio? or any of the top contenders? I bet Teofimo Lopez could move up to 140 and become two weight champion.

              Josh Taylor is probably the only unified-champion in recent years that arguably does not belong in the top ten P4P. I envision Taylor vs. : Crawford, Inoue, Canelo, Charlo, Usyk, Estrada, or even Lomachenko and cant see Taylor beat any of them in a mythical fantasy P4P showdown, and all of them knock him out.

              Skills matter.

                Lopez just beat the guy many had as the top p4p fighter in the world. I think it reasonable he be ranked.

                Taylor will be ranked if he beats Ramirez.

                  Lopez just beat Loma who was at least #2 on every p4p list, Taylor hasn’t beaten anyone even close to that stature. You are a proven racist with an anti American agenda. Taylor is both British and white (your two favorite qualities in a fighter) so that explains your incredibly ignorant point of view.
