I think the problem is Thurman's inactivity. Fighting only once per year he barely keeps himself eligible for P4P status, regardless of titles. In terms of wins and quality of opposition I'd rank them about even.

Better Resume? Thurman or GGG...

Thurman beat porter, DSG, Robert Guerrero, Luis Collazo, Jesús Soto Karass, Carlos Quintana. Not the best but known fighters. The good wins were Porter & Danny Garcia. Cant dispute that.
Loma does not belong on any P4P List with 10 fights unless he beat at least 8 champions out of the ten fights that he has had.

Are wins over Murray, Lem & Jacobs that much better than Shawn Porter and DSG?.

Thurman needs to be on people's p4p list, if you don't have him you might as well not make a p4p list anymore..
That said GGG's resume > Thurman's.. you can't cut it any other way..
IMO #1 p4p with Ward gone should be Crawford..
The poll results are funny though..

I think when Spence puts the scalp on Thurman then the debate is over. Spence will have to be in the p4p #1 conversation.

They're pretty even
Golovkin fought 5 World champions, Thurman 6 World Champions
Canelo stands out the most in both of their resumes but Golovkin had a draw against him

When did Jacobs become a great fighter? Wasn't that long ago fans were calling him a chinny bum because of the Pirog fight. Leading up to the fight the consensus was that he would be another easy TKO victory for 97G. Now he counts as a great win? What happened?
