    Let's get an idea what the consensus pound for pound looks like with a poll. Who do you think are the 10 best boxers in the world regardless of weight class right now? A number 1 vote gets 10 points, number 2 9 points, etc. The more lists posted the clearer an idea we'll get of consensus opinion. If no one else wants to I'll tally up the votes early in the new year.


    Results through 47 votes

    1. Golovkin 306
    2. Gonzalez 301
    3. Kovalev 281
    4. Lomachenko 279
    5. Ward 278
    6. Crawford 196
    7. Pacquiao 186
    8. Rigondeaux 182
    9. Canelo 138
    10. Inoue 83

    Frampton 79
    Usyk 61
    Estrada 55
    Wilder 24
    Mikey Garcia 17
    Marquez 16
    Stevenson 14
    Beterbiev 12
    Joshua 9
    Ortiz 9
    Fury 9
    Brook 8

    Good list.

    Look, I'm biased towards Usyk as I've admitted elsewhere, and he looks p4p to me, so ...

    :)

    totally agree, the way he dealt with glowacki was class plus what he did in the ams. 1 or 2 more like that i think he has to go in

    I respect everybody's lists and opinions, I'm not trying to act like my list is better than anyone elses. (I am simply trying to understand those who differ with my list)

    With that said, I think anyone who doesn't have Canelo in their Top 5 Pound 4 Pound owes us an explanation as to why Canelo is not rated in their P4P list. I don't expect everyone to have Canelo #1 or even #2 or #3. But the amount of people who don't even have Canelo in their Top 5 let alone Top 10 is just mind boggling to me.

    Again, I'm not trying to disrespect anyones list. I'm just genuinely trying to understand why so many have excluded Canelo from their P4P Lists.
