    It’s true what they say, one moment you’re up the next you’re right back down an vise versa.

    people thought beating Nakatani on points wasn’t enough to put him at number 1 but now he’s number 1 without throwing another punch since?

    He should have already been number 1. Now there is no debate to be had

    You'd have to be coping harder than a religious grandmother not to think he's better than Usyk as of this moment.

    Usyk is brilliant, an atg, but being an inactive 39 year old will always be a recipe for trouble.

    Naoya #1? Of course. It's been that way for the past year.

    Has been since last year due to his activity and fighting the best available. Tonight just solidified it.

    After the second Dubois fight Usyk has been out of the picture. The Rico fight announcement just confirmed it.

    He's finished at the world and P4P level.

    One thing I can tell you about religious grandmothers and I can tell you a lot, okay? Folks, I know more than anyone about religious grandmothers, far more than someone like Sleepy Joe. Sleepy Joe was busy sleeping but I've been busy knowing, knowing all about it, some of the best people, the brightest people, they've said that-they agree with me. They don't agree with him. They don't agree but you know what? Religious grandmothers, we love our religious grandmothers. We love them and we're taking care of them better than anyone else ever has before. At levels never seen-there are people who love their religious grandmothers, they come to me, big, strong guys, tough guys, you know? These are guys right out of central casting, the toughest, the strongest, they come up to me about their religious grandmothers-how we love them-they say it with tears in their eyes, they say "Sir, thank you for taking care of our religious grandmothers at levels never seen before, we are winning with our religious grandmothers in this country, and it's all thanks to you, thanks to what you-" And you've got to say we are-we are winning. We are winning there, but they won't report that, will they? They will report anything bad-fake things-the only things that are bad are faked from the fake news media-they have been proven wrong time and time again, the failing fake news, New York Times, nobody reads it anymore, they don't buy it. They don't buy the New York Times, but you know what? Even they are starting to admit that they were wrong about that with religious grandmothers. They were wrong, okay? You can-there are religious grandmothers all over the world, even in Iran, they are there too and they love us and support us and want the US to be-they ask us. They beg us to come. And we're gonna come. We're gonna win big by coming.

    Not in my book. Canelo has looked flat for a while, swerved Benavidez, looked poor against Crawford, and he very arguably had a couple more losses than his record shows. Crawford's historical win was so in name only.

    My prediction that Canelo would dramatically drop from his historical Mexican rankings proved true.

    Here's another prediction, Naoya's record will only catch more sunshine as the years pass.

    Your prediction didn’t prove true. Canelo’s legacy is actively being written.

    At the end of the day, The Ring posted their list and you’re just some guy who wishes he could’ve written a single article for The Ring.

    Obviously but even if he doesn't retire in the next few years and is still fighting at Usyk's age I guarantee you he won't even be near the top 10 P4P and would have numerous KO losses on his ledger

    Usyk is the 2nd oldest P4P king ever since P4P became a thing
