Early but if you take the Jan 2020- December 2029 early, who do you reckon will end as the p4p fighter of the decade?
With Crawford retired and Usyk on the way out I think Inoue probably has the best chance. If he keeps beating people at 122 Then goes up to 126 pounds and wins a championship there, unified, or not, he will have perhaps lasted the whole decade or close to it
Hard to argue against this, unless something unexpected happens like Nakatani wins and goes on a crazy run at 122 and 126. Or Bam beats both Inoue and Nakatani, makes some successful defenses at 122.
IIRC ! Inoue has beaten more Champions than either Usyk or Crawford. Crawford has been Undisputed in more divisions than either Inoue or Usyk. Usyk has fought fighters a lot bigger than himself than either Inoue or Crawford has. Take your pick as to which fighters achievements impress you the most !
Because of Crawford's retirement. I think its between Usyk and Inoue, it really depend what either fighter does in the next couple years. If Stevenson can stay unbeaten and active whilst beating good fighters around him in Haney, Gervonta, Garcia and so on, then he might have a good chance.
As of right now, Inoue or Usyk. We still have some time though, who knows if Shakur or Fundora can go on some crazy runs in the next 3.5 years? Just lol @ crawford. no fighter should ever be fighter of the decade with just 6 fights
