    Who in the blue hell is Memo Ayan????? Bivol is a world class fighter, better than Clenbuterolos in every single aspect.

    Agree, he should be ranked P4P #1.

    Even if he is the 2nd best HW on the planet.

    Pound for pound is absolute nonsense. Funny how Josh Taylor is in there after being whooped but given a daylight robbery gift in his last bout.

    Surely more motivation for Fury to fight him. I’ve followed Fury from the start of his career and never doubted him but if he does not fight Usyk that would be a bad move and over shadow everything he has achieved in boxing. I do believe 100% Fury fights Usyk but if he does not that is a very strange move and leaves himself wide open to criticism that would follow him for the rest of his days .

    Looking at Josh Taylor sitting there perched at no 8 on the pfp list annoys me,the corruption in Boxing that let him get the win over Catterall is disgusting .

    Usyk is far more deserving than inoue for damn sure. Taylor shouldn't be on the list he lost to Jack and hasn't rematched him.

    Bivol too high for me

    I get him being top ten, but maybe it should go

    8-Beterbiev
    9-Bivol
    10-Canell

    I agree with the top spot. Usyk deserves PFP more than anyone. Beterbiev is too low. Undefeated with KO wins in every fight? He needs to be top five at least. Canelo was schooled by Bivol but is ranked higher? Come on man!

    I’d drop Crawford and Spence from the list until they fight each other. Charlo is borderline and I’d kick him off for Shakur Stevenson. Loma only fights bigger guys and has earned his spot. When he schools Haney next year he should move to the top two.

    Guys who only fight smaller opponents should be penalized on a PFP list. Usyk should be listed as top one and two (two spots) if he beats Fury. If he loses a close fight he should just be listed as 1.

    Gvozdzyk one of the best wins for any active boxer.

    Usyk def earned it. To beat one of the monster punchers at heavyweight twice shows he's for real at HW. This is very difficult to keep focus and not let up, shows that he has the true champ mentality. AJ had 24 rounds to figure it out and Usyk still was one step ahead. Staying at the top is the hardest thing mentally as people gun for you and make plans now that they've seen more of your style.

    Beterbiev should be higher than Bivol. Taking out Canelo at 175 is **** all compared to Gvozdyk's 0 and the rest of Artur's resume, not to mention the WAY he has won. Spence is too high. Taylor and Loma maybe a bit too high.

    Usyk with a WELL DESERVED and CLEAR p4p #1. Inoue is clearly not that guy.
