    Spence is still a weird one for me. He is a great fighter but he hasn't got much depth to his record. Needs another big win to be top ten imo.

    Edit: trejos needs shooting for putting Wilder 8th.

    Lets be honest the list is very bias and all the guys judging are from the same place.

    The article should have started with the line.

    Errol Spence?

    Dude has a badly faded Algieri and broken Brook on his resume.

    Their ranking looks legit indeed:

    I don't know what's worse

    GGG #1 or Wilder #11

    Both absolutely terrible rankings

    I don't care about p4p lists buy guys had wilder at number 8 and most ahead of Joshua.
    Even blizzy wouldn't have the audacity to do some crazy **** like that.
    The major of Tuscaloosa would find it hard to get away with ******ed **** like that

    I believe the list is good....the top 4 could be shifted around a bit and still be solid

    Oh, it's a shitty list made by shitty people, but that has nothing to do with them being American. You were just pulling that out of your ass. Biased Americans don't put 6 out of 10 foreigners in their list or wait until the 3rd fighter to include an American. Your accusations of bias are completely unfounded, unless you think that Khazakstan, Ukraine, Mexico, Cuba, Russia, and Japan are parts of America. The people at ESPN aren't patriots. They are idiots.

    His resume is a one off,majority of his fights are against guys not even ranked,those that were averaged between 200 and 400 and then when he finally steps up he's facing guys ranked around 50 to 100 like scooter Scott and Audley,that Stiverne is his best opponent speaks volumes for this protected fraud,support the guy by all means but don't even try and explain this BS resume away,oh and let's not not forget his awful tactic of giving bums just a week or two in camp.

    More proof that the term "boxing expert" is an utterly meaningless one.

    Thats a totally fair point but there is also zero chance anyome outside of north america would rate wilder that highly so the bias is there

    Alright, you got that part right. 100%. Nobody who isn't American would ever rate Wilder that highly. The only way someone would think Wilder is great is if their experience of the current boxing scene were limited to one or two American boxing media outlets. Like, they must not be watching anything from England with Joshua, Australia with Parker, or Russia with Povetkin. The Wilder fandom does reek of ignorance and provincialism. You're right on the money as far as that goes.

    I like Wilder and think he's better than most people here say, but yeah, he doesn't belong near the p4p10 list.
