If Usyk Beats Fury is he number 1 P4P

Disturbing how Inoue's and Usyk's achievement are being lowballed to accommodate the idea that Crawfraud should be ranked above them.

 

Even if he doesn't he's 'P4P' no.1 just based on his cruiserweight performance, and then we add the wins at HW where he beat fighters far bigger. better than any of these others.

We all know if he was born in Murica and grew up in 'Philly' or 'Detroit' they'd already be producing movies about him and erecting statues, and he'd be considered the greatest fighter who ever lived.

 

Sure i think so. It can change as the year goes on though. He might not end up as #1 P4P depending on what fights happen during the year.

 

He is already p4p #1 IMO. But definitely. Best P4P fighter since Mayweather.

 

If he beats Fury’s then as the undefeated and undisputed heavyweight champion, in reality he is automatically the best fighter in the world based on the simple but undeniable fact that he could or would be favoured to beat any other boxer in the world in a boxing match.

As for in mythical P4P terms, I still think that puts him above fighters like Crawford and Inoue, who are undoubtedly great multi weight champs, but I still think it’s a more impressive feat moving up from cruiserweight and still able to win all the belts and becoming undisputed against established incumbent champions like Fury and Joshua who still outweigh him by 30-40+ pounds as well as being clearly taller, stronger and harder hitting than him.

 

Always has been

But boxing fans always seem to miss the true talent, Fury included.

Both of these men before they fell out of prime have been doing things men of their size should not be able to do and have never been able to do. They are the first of their kind and they were ignored.

 

I voted no, but think there won't be much between Inoue and Usyk if Usyk beats Fury. Inoue has climbed through more divisions and became undisputed in two weight classes in two years time. But how do you compare these moves through the weights? And I don't think Inoue has beaten anyone as good as Fury. So either answer is good to me.

 

So, Crawford's win over Spence wasn't lowballed? Spence was a bad dude, the fight was 50/50, up until the opening bell rang, then Spence was drained, had brain damage etc. If Crawford never faced Spence at 147, he would have been crucified. Crawford goes out and destroys Spence and he gets zero credit.

That being said, Crawford, Inoue and If Usyk beats Fury, all make a case for #1. At this point I have to favor Inoue over Crawford for #1. Just slightly.

 

Change title to when he beats Fury.

 

He already is my No1 pfp

 

Unless Fury is well over the hill Usyk cannot beat him.

 

P4P means nothing, it's just fantasy, he will simply be the best fighter on the planet.
