    I rank him second only behind Inoue and only because it's been a sec since he fought

    My issues are that:
    1. Cruiserweight is a particularly terrible division
    2. Briedis was ****ing him up good

    Usyk does appear quite good, but P4P#1? I don't know what you guys are thinking. Loma alone has done so much more -- I don't see how that could be remotely debatable.

    Hahaha. What the **** are you talking about...

    Is this a joke?

    He didn't look particularly great against Bellew.

    Gamboa, Postol>>Breidis, Gassiev

    Gassiev isn’t even Horn level.

    Postol and Breidis were at least equal.

    Gassiev has no am career. He was there to be exploited. Gamboa was better in a lot of ways.

    Don’t create chores by skipping over Crawford’s best wins. It’s bizarre.

    Remind what belt Gamboa won at 135.. I don’t remember Postol being a unified champion and hasn’t won a belt since losing to Bud.. smh

    Who has Gassiev beaten thats even close to Pacquiao? Gassiev is an overhyped fighter in an extremely overhyped division.

    I'd see your point if Horn beat Pacquiao, or if Pacquiao wasn't pushing 40 but that wasn't the case.

    Gassiev was a legit fighter who didn't fluke his way to the top, also by the eye test he's clearly levels above Horn.
