    Usyk has just done too much to be taken from the top spot as of now. He's stil P4P no 1. It's unreal what he's done.

    I am a leader so I don’t need validation from likes. I call it like I see it and express my current top 5. That is my expert opinion based on my knowledge and experience. You may not like my list but I don’t give a **** whether you do or don’t. As for the LDBC or whatever you call them why do you fear them? I am not a member of any club because l stand alone. **** you *****.

    It's an extraordinarily BIASED comedy list, that's what it is. literally couldn't be any worse, you even topped it off by giving Jermell freaking Charlo a honoury mention. :meparto:You show you a complete inability to take your bias away from your views, You make yourself look stupid.

    No he's not. He punches harder that's about it.

    If we're talking about the overall resume for active boxers right now, surely Canelo would be #1?

    Jermell Charlo is reigning undisputed world champion like Terence Crawford you stupid mother****er. Nothing biased about the list. Everyone on there including those who get honourable mentions deserve to be there. I know it pains you that Loma is not in but he is no longer a top 5 or top 10 P4P guy.

    Disagree, I just skimmed through all of that and 90% of it is just your opinion.

    Usyk isn't p4p number 1 atm because...
    1. He's inactive. 1 top 10 opponent since 2018 , 5 years ago...
    2. Isn't number 1 in his division due to Fury, not his fault but I can't give a boxer credit for other fighters not wanting to fight.
    3. His best wins in Mairis Bredis and Anthony Joshua have lost much easier to lesser competition.
    4. His secondary wins have aged pretty badly, Bellew was 40 years old, unranked at CW and pretty much retired. Gassiev despite his youth has done absolutely nothing after fighting Usyk, Huck was shot and Glowacki was always overrated.

    Usyk needs to beat Fury to be top p4p for me, Inoue I have no 1 atm & Crawford no 2.

    Briedis IS better than Spence. He's athletic, explosive, and has massive power, is fluid with really good skills, can set traps, can box and move or fight, is physically strong with an iron chin, good footwork and engine, and he's a great finisher. He's a very complete fighter and is strong in almost every department.

    He's obviously no longer what he once was and it's even more impressive that he was as good as he was coming from a small country with a minuscule 1.8 mill population which is hardly a boxing powerhouse

    He was also facing career CWs his size or huge HWs way bigger and big/huge punchers not featherfisted LHWs or a blown up SMW and unlike Spence he's proven he can put in a dominant performances against career CW champions his own size which Spence never has against career 147 world champions.

    Spence might have more names on his CV but, as said, he has the PBC/Showtime mafia machine behind him orchestrating the smoke and mirrors show feeding him all these in-house career 140 pounders and featherfists for him to shine against.

    When Briedis was in against a prime elite fighter his size he didn't look like a completely clueless out of his depth rank novice lost child who had no idea how to make the fight even remotely competitive like Spence against Crawford.

    And that's not because Crawford is better or more skilled than Usyk

    How is Spence going to beat a same size Briedis? He can't knock him out, outbox him, outlast him, and Briedis hits harder P4P than anyone he's faced.

    How many times has Crawford done this to a way way bigger and heavier boxer, let alone a durable former world champion? Even at 147 these guys are at worst his size

    So many fans are brainwashed and have no idea what they're seeing with their eyes

    Why do you think so many thought Fulton was more skilled than Inoue and picked him to outbox him?

    Usyk is definitely the sports PFP #1. WHO in history has ever won and unified belts in two different divisions ALL in their opponents backyards???

    Spence sucks. He's as basic as a can of tomato soup. He got by on size and decent power against horrendous opposition.
