    Is surprisingly ok. I thought it'd be awful like most of his punditry but including Joshua and Wilder aside I consider it a relatively sensible list in which you can see why he has included each fighter and ranked them.

    Decent list. The Wilder and Joshua addition is quite out there though.

    Get rid of Wilder and Juiceshua and it's okay.

    Why on earth is Crawford no 2?

    He shouldn't even be on the list

    It's decent but not sure about GGG at no1, and being described as 'unbeatable' is odd. Has Nelson slept through the last three New Years and thinks it's still 2015?

    Tells the truth about Canelo fight in as much as Canelo did really well and still fell short.

    Don’t think Wilder or AJ are pound for pound yet nor do I think GGG should be Number 1. I do think Nelson is a bit suspect at times with his analysis.

    You seem to always try go against the flow, no matter how wrong you are to do so

    Well I'm a natural contratrian so don't expect to see me agreeing with the status quo unless the point cannot be disputed.

    Crawford in my opinion has as much right to be on that list as the likes of Keith Thurman, AJ or Wilder who many complain when included in any ones P4P list.

    Less offensive than expected.

    AJ And Wilder need removing though. Not having SSR is criminal

    I agree with you, however if you look elsewhere - e.g. at the guys who vote for the ESPN list, this is one of the more reasonable lists.
