    I think Davis is a talented fighter posses all the tools to be a P4P great he's still really young I just think he needs to fight more than once a years. I think Crawford is elite and doesnt get enough credit and will be champion for a long time,only hiccup I see is probably spence. I believe Spence has really fought anyone of stature(Peterson was old as hell and not in his prime). But he's powerful and young but I believed he'll be out boxed very soon. And Lomo is just plain hyped to me. Great footwork and hand speed but very very very beatable in my eyes and has about 3yrs and its over. A rematch with Gary Russell ends in lose,Gervonta demolishes him,and mikey garcia has a field day with him.

    i think gervonta is gonna get caught up in all the money an mess everything up.

    bud crawford has all the tools. he knows when to step on the gas pedal. hes a thinker in there and killer in there. and he deff does no let u off the hook.

    spence so far i think hes a good boxer but i do think he may lose by being out boxed but still the dude is an absolute stud and he will punish just about everyone out there. hes a southpaw as well i believe. which for his style is great. hes possibly the most fan friendly and best to represent boxing

    and loma fights like a young man and hes not gonna be a young man forever . hes gonna be pretty much unbeatable untill he gets older. however though he looks small at 135 and all fights for him at 135 are difficult fights just because hes a disadvantage . he should be at 130. but even this commney guy get represents for real difficult challenges for loma. loma will still beat him but commney big long and lanky and loma gonna have to take some to give some and would if he can really crack.

    Doesn't take a genius to see your angle here.

    Tank - Very talented a real mini beast, he needs to make sure he has his head screwed on straight though as i can see him being one of those that goes off the rails a bit and spoils their career. Im also unsure how many weight classes he can go up from where he is, he is a stocky guy so as he ages he is going to want to go up but hes so damn short he can only go so far before his opposition are just way too rangy for him.

    Crawford - Hes absolutely fantastic. He is getting leant on a bit due to a bit of a weak resume but the pure class oozes from him i think his Boxing style ticks pretty much all the boxes. Hes quiet outside the ring and that for some reason is seen as a bad thing but hes top quality inside and 147 is there for him to take.

    Lomachenko - P4P number 1 and rightfully so, the best Boxer on the planet at the minute. No Boxer is pure perfection, ever, So people will find negativity towards him but its really paper thin stuff and there isnt much of it. It is a shame he came in to the Pro ranks so late. Looking forward to him maybe pushing to 140 but thats guna be his limit and the size difference will be noticable, the top boys at Welter are just going to be too big for him.

    Spence - One of my favourite fighters at the minute. His rugged aggressive style which some say is there to be exposed by more rounded slicker fighters i feel he is that good at what he does he should remain competitive against anybody. Right now there is only Crawford at 147 or below who i think beats him and is there any fighters coming through at 154 that look like they are going to be elite level slick?

    Lomo Has only had under 20 fights in due time we'll all see him get exposed. I tell my trainer this all the time he's one of her favorite fighters but I see alot of flaws and gaps in his fights. Spence is very good and at 147 I agree with only losing to crawford and 154 he wont be the bigger guy so its up in the air

    Whats the angle, please enlighten us. People are so sensitive around here when it comes to criticism of their favorite fighters. Let the man have his opinion.

    Loma isn’t p4p#1, it’s a myth pushed by his legions of fanboys. Canelo has actually gone up in weight and beaten an elite fighter, he has the best claim to the throne right now.

    R.E Spence, although he does have a rugged, aggressive style, i see it as a lot more sophisticated form of pressure than is typically associated with pressure fighters. he seems to do it in different phases, varying exactly what he is doing, so i don't think it will be as easy for a real slickster to take advantage of it. He has a lot of skill with that pressure. I saw a really good breakdown of his performance against Brook which detailed it far better than i could, wish i knew who did it so i could post it.

    I see that alot about Lomo but if he was going to be exposed on his quality then it would surely of already happened, his resume is short but its the resume of the latter half of a really good Boxers career. Like i said, no fighter is ever going to be perfect but right now he is on fire and is doing it at against the best fighters that are available to him.

    What elite fighter do we speak of? GGG was robbed and Fields is far from elite just a contender who had a belt
