    Top 10 or top 5?
    This fight has been discussed and I think there is a good chance we see it soon.

    fringe-7. he has no real shout of being considered now and is a weight class above a pretty old opponent. personally i would put him at 10 because i dont really agree with the notion p4p lists should change so dramatically on the back of 1 fightan keep crawford top 4, unless its a massive beating

    Tim's the present and future of this sport.


    The rest are the past.

    If Tszyu beat Crawford and it was a fair result. Then I'd put him 5th below: Inoue/Bivol, Canelo and Beterbiev. Above Haney and Gervonta though.

    If he beats TC and he will be No1.


    Terence Crawford is the best there is. P4P Number 1.

    Weight advantage or not. No excuses.


    TC Walks around at what weight naturally? I guess that ends it all then.

    No mate, that's not how it works and is a pre-emptive excuse.

    Bud is choosing to go to 154 and is therefore to be considered a bona-fide fighter at 154. He's just demolished Spence so his age doesn't come into it.

    If Tim beats Crawford like I think he will then I think I would have him in the top 8

    All this Canelo is P4P Number 1 is bull****. He's lost twice officially and two '' unoficially ''

    He beat Jermell Charlo in his last fight who ought to be ashamed of himself.

    he demolished spence a while ago and at that age you can get old over night, and especially when fighting once a year. and ive never seen that first line of thought ever actually applied, you always get less credit when fighting a guy moving up a weight class, and if its 2, often none at all.

    I don't see it being received well by the fans on this board

    Crawford is inactive
    Crawford will be 39
    Crawford's last victory was against a Crawford went life and death with Porter
    Probably will be retirement if he loses
    Crawford is a former lightweight

    I've seen this board tear people down for career best victories so I don't expect this to be any different.

    So that means Tszyu is damned by the ignorant either way.

    If he loses then he wasn’t that good to begin with.

    If he wins it’s because Crawford got old.

    Explain to me how Tszyu can possibly come out of this with his reputation enhanced.
