    Everyone believes Usyk is #1 P4P. What makes him #1? What separates him from Inoue?

    I voted for the Monster so I'm not sure what makes Usyk better.

    It's very clear Usyk is p4p number 1. It goes without saying.

    Unless you have some type of agenda.

    Inoue's been FAR more dominant than Usyk.

    Especially when plenty of folks expected Usyk to fail already at HW.

    haha

    You are Japanese right? Hence the biased agenda

    Cruiserweight at that time was full of big punching killers and Usyk went through them all and did it in their backyards!!

    He then went up to heavyweight undersized giving up loads of weight and unifies in Joshuas backyard

    The difference in weight between the cruiser and heavyweight division is massive! Its very rare for someone to be able to successfully do that.

    Add in Usyks achievements as a amateur (Golds in every major tournament) and it's very clear Usyk is a true great fighter, very special

    Usyks resume is far better than Inoues and his achievements far greater.

    There's no argument to be had here.

    Consensus might say Usyk is # 1 P4P but i believe that Inoue is.

    Usyk has fought once a year for the last 4 years, i cannot view a once a year fighter as the P4P #1.
    I understand there were certain reasons for this, but a world title might be put into storage but for me not the P4P status.

    I love Usyk but Inoue is a better boxer than him plain and simple.

    Usyk has fought the better Competition. His resume sets him apart from Inoue, hes a true Roadwarrior!
