Selby, Frampton & Galahad is an incredible run to be on. You say P4P isn’t based purely on resume, but anyone can look good fighting someone they’re supposed to beat.
I love watching Inoue and I think he's great, but who are all the elite wins on his resume? Rodriguez, Payano, McDonnell...not exactly a list of killers. He fought 8 times at 115, a division with lots of talent, and he fought none of them. Spence doesn't have a great resume, but neither does Inoue. And Tanaka and Kyoguchi? That's really, really reaching. Those divisions are so thin, it's hard to even rate them because hardly any humans are that small. You eliminate entire races of fighters at those weights. Clearly you just don't like Spence, which is fine, but at least try to be objective, man.
Its not so bad. Just sucks that Crawford is with Top Rank and as a result wont be fighting the PBC guys. With Crawford in the mix we would have a fun division. I'm rooting for Porter to knock off Spence. I liked Spence until he started with the A side nonsense without doing anything
I have to agree on this Josh get's respect on who he's faced of late,Bud's now only takes easy fights maybe he should be taken off P4P. Then maybe Bud would step up who he fights.
McDonnell had not lost for ten years till Inoue came along,before this he'd never been stopped 8 world belt fights & won them. That's not a bad boxer,McDonnell was very underrated by many & I find this sad,Inoue blew McDonnell away but he's very special. Please know your boxers I think these guys should have more respect & some said Rodriguez would beat Inoue.
and he's beaten Taguchi, Hernandez, Narvaez, Carmona, & Kono. Collectively, through weight divisions, not many have better. Tanaka isn't a reach at all, 3 Weight world champion, beating Saludar, Fuentes, Acosta, Kimura & Taguchi. Kyoguchi has beaten Argumedo, Buitrago, and moving up and stopping Budler. Thats a hardly a reach either. I like Spence, I just pay proper respect to the lighter divisions as well.
Crawford is ready to "step up who he fights." Unfortunately Haymon is never going to allow that because of fear of losing one or more of those 147 belts. Quit bitching about Crawford and tell Haymon to make a fight with him.
Relative to the past or what you wish was happening, sure you could think that. But it is still one of the top divisions. It is top heavy. But what other divisions have quality like Crawford, Spence, Pacquiao, Thurman, Porter, Danny... those are proven commodities, a lot in a single division.
The clear 1,2,3 and 4 of the division are hardly mixing. Any combination of Crawford, Spence, Thurman, Pac will help, but there's been close to nothing for 3 years.
It would be good if the best fought each other., which is the same in any division. Need one of those super tournaments with the following : Spence Crawford Pac Thurman Garcia Porter Khan Brook
If Crawford wants to be a top P4P then he must fight the best in his division. Spence/Pacquiao/Thurman & so on. bitching I ant boy lol. Pacman get's tons of respect on who he fights,who the **** does Crawford ho yes Khan.
its not bad but they need to fight more often. i think they follow floyd in the 1 or 2 fights a year. it should be 3 or 4. thats my only issue. none of them are in 'wars' they are all to scared to lose so dont fight.
