The man deserves the spot he is at because of his hard work and dedication to the sport. And even being able to pick and choose opponents at whatever time.. he still picked and chose his way to having the best resume outside of Pacquiao... so give the man credit, he earned it... his first fight as a free agent and he picks the lineal undefeated in his prine callum smith who is 6-7 inches taller then Canelo and will probably enjoy a 6-7 inch reach advantage (I’m guessing) let’s let’s judge Canelo and floyd or any other free agent superstar for who they picked and chose when they were free agent cash cows... so far, I think we can all agree Canelo is off to a helluva start... the show just got started... grab your popcorn
    I'm nit-picking here but callum Smith is not the lineal champion. He's the number 1 supermiddleweight, so canelo deserves alot of credit for taking him on. Should be a good fight.

          Who is the best opponent on Inoue's resume?
          What asterisks?
          Every name on that resume was decisively beaten though I’m genuinely open to other perspectives

          I would say Donaire. I believe all great champions have that 1 great last fight and that was his

          I mean yeah, you can say Golovkin is a much better win and I agree, but both decisions are highly debatable - the first one especially

            Yes but you can't be P4P until you fought at multiple weights and won titles at those weights. Beating faded boxers doesn't fit the bill. Also daring to take big risky fights is another thing that gets you on it.

            I don't care enough about P4P to have a list. But Canelo and Loma would be on it....Any boxers who aren't well known should not be on it either because that means they haven't had big fights.

              Donaire was 37 years old. That's an asterisk right there...Inoue's best win is against an old man way past his best days.

                  You can't be anywhere p4p related when you have so many shady ass fights on your record, and anyone that knows a drip of boxing can see that.

                      Spence fans swore kell brook would give Crawford problems
                      Crawford ain’t Spence
                      Nobody was happy when the brook fight was signed lmao who do you talk to that knows boxing..? Kell hasnt looked remotely good since the Spence fight. He hasn't even been fighting at ww or against top guys

                      And have you been under a rock? Top rank is to blame for the fight not being made. I'm sure spence or Crawford would take the fight in a second.. but it DOESNT work that way. Promoters make fights not fighters

                      Porter and ugas both wanted to fight crawford, and like I said, Crawford would probably take those fights if it were up to him. But top rank turned them down.

                      Dont be naive
