    I made this list using "eye test", consideration of resume, random choosing, a seance, and personal bias.

    If you have a p4p list post it here!

    I don't think I can put Usyk in mine. Yes Mchunu is a tricky defender and a good counterpuncher, but a top p4p guy shouldn't be as unsure how to deal with that and mount an attack as Usyk was in those early rounds. He's still probably the class of the cruiserweight division, but I want to see he can better handle a variety of styles.

    Usyk takes a while to figure people out, a little bit like Loma. Still, achievement wise he doesn't belong in the p4p top 10.

    P.S. Interesting how close my list is to the consensus, the only differences are: GGG over Kovalev (eye test only); I didn't put Pac in, he's too old IMO although resume-wise he's #1; Frampton above Usyk for his achievements this year.

    Probably a little top heavy as I'm not as familiar with some of the lower divisions.

    Id like to put Rigo in there, but the guy just never fights
    Could make an argument for Usyk as well.

    Thurman is a another that deserves a mention.

    Winner of Degale-Jack with also go into the top 10

    I'm scratching my head at the Pacquiao omissions. I'm no fan of his, but he recently beat a future HOF and pfp fighter in Bradley and did a good job on a top ten prime welter in Vargas. He lost predictably to the best fighter in a long time, so what?
