    Not because I personally think Queef is P4P, but because most people have the likes of Spence and Mikey in the Top 6. Queef has Porter and Danny on his ledger, which is more than impressive than anything Mikey and Spence have done.

    And many people consider Queef to be The Man at welterweight.

    think it's due to the fact he's been inactive for so long. he was the clear WW number 1 before he left, and probably still is with his resume. I hope he comes back soon

    I don't really buy this. Ward's inactive ass was ALWAYS a part of P4P discussion/lists.

    That's fine, i'm not selling it, it's just my personal opinon of why i don't have him on my P4P list right now.

    Spence beat Kell Brook , who took the title off of Porter, Porter is Thurmans best win.
    Thurman v Brook would be competitve..... Spence beats both, Thurman aint the man no more, and his CV aint as impressive. Danny will get smoked by Spence too.

    Spence beat a Brook who was drained, dropped back down to 147 after getting his face literally broken by GGG...

    Bi
    Big fan of Keith, has a chill demeanor, and an entertaining, variable style. Skilled back foot boxer who's not afraid to throw bombs on occasion.

    He was the clear number one at 147 due to his brace of wins against top five guys Porter and Garcia, made the lower half of my P4P top ten, too. But even I have to omit him from my WW and P4P rankings now.

    I think Erroll beats him anyway, Keith doesn't like it "up him" so to speak and if Porter can give him real issues despite constantly smothering himself, the much cleaner and refined Spence will probably break his body down. I do hope he comes back though, providing the hunger is still there.

    Thurman is a complete non-factor.

    His peers at WW all considered him the man to beat when he still fought.
    Keith was a dynamic fighter; hand and foot speed, power, skillset, great footwork
    could trade or move and potshot.

    I'm extremely concerned Keith is now content playing the Aboriginal horn,
    chilling in Bali (or wherever else), and going totally zen........

    Pretty certain he has no hunger for the sport anymore. Welp

    I have him 5 or 6, above Spence for sure but I’ve taken him out of my list due to inactivity
