    If or when Inoue unifies 126, he will undoubtedly be crowned P4P nr 1 by the majority in the sport. Usyk will be in his 40s and probably retired. Crawford will likely retire soon too.
    There simply would be no competition to his resume.

    Yea, right. Before Usyk beat Fury, people were saying "Fury is the best heavyweight on the planet". After Usyk beat him, people started saying: "Fury was never that good" , just to ignore Usyk's success.

    There are as many fighters at 122 as HW. Look it up and see for yourself. Inoue overall has fought more competition by # of fighters in division than Usyk

    Fury would have to actually clean out the division to prove himself the best but he never did

    Results trump what fans think Fury could hypothetically accomplish and Fury doesn't have the results

    James Toney did lose in damn near everyone's eyes to Dave Tiberi but he's supposed to be a great win for Roy Jones. Dave Tiberi took Toney's 0 not Roy :deal:
