Crawford Usyk Inoue Bivol Canelo Lopez Loma Fury Beterbiev Stevenson/Davis It's close between Usyk and Crawford, both won titles in more than one division, but I just think Usyk's resume is just a little deeper with Joshua, Gassiev and Briedis. Yeah he's been inactive but that doesn't take away from his accomplishments. Inoue simply hasn't beaten anyone I'd rate on a level of Spence or Joshua. Yeah Fulton was a unified champion like them but I never rated Fulton that highly. Bivol might not even be the best at 175 but he does have a stand out win over Canelo and while Lopez's wins over Loma and Taylor were impressive he also lost to Kambosos and looked poor vs Martin. Fury belongs in the top 10 in my opinion wins over Wlad, Wilder, Whyte his resume is pretty solid and he has good skills for such a big lump of a man. Beterbiev could arguably rank considerably higher he is unbeaten but he lacks a signature win unlike those above him. Last spot goes to either Davis or Shakur. Again they could rank a lot higher based on skills but they don't have the resume of at least not yet to rank them any higher.
How is Haney overrated? He is the youngest undisputed champ since the 4 belt era. Went abroad to win it and defend it. Got a win over Lomachenko. Controversial yes, but a win regardless of the crying. Has a good resume. I'm not seeing too many people putting him top 5 P4P. I think he is rated decent among fans.
My personal list: 1. Terence Crawford 2. Naoya Inoue 3. Oleksandr Usyk 4. Canelo Alvarez 5. Dmitry Bivol 6. Juan Francisco Estrada 7. Errol Spence Jr. 8. Devin Haney 9. Vasyl Lomachenko 10. Teofimo Lopez (tie) 11. Shakur Stevenson (tie) PS: For the 10th spot, I am torn between Teofimo Lopez and Shakur Stevenson. I like Shakur a lot but Teo does have more quality wins than Shakur (Loma and Taylor) despite having questionable performances sometimes (George Kambosos Jr and Sandor Martin). Honorable mentions AKA fringe pound-for-pounders include: Kenshiro Teraji Artur Beterbiev Gervonta Davis Kazuto Ioka Jermell Charlo Tyson Fury (might drop him from the top 20 P4P list if he continues to fight MMA fighters and non-elite fighters for the rest of his career and if he continues to duck Usyk to high heaven lol) I know not everyone might agree with me, hahaha, but I love making pound-for-pound lists lol
1a Inoue 1b Crawford 3 Usyk 4-10 who cares. Though the idea that Inoue hasn't beaten anyone as good as, say Spence, is laughable on its face and demonstrably untrue.
Inoue Usyk Crawford Beterbiev Lomachenko I'm strong on my top 5 but meh on the next 5, just filling in the blanks. Bivol Clenelo Teo Davis Haney On the subject of Loma, constantly ripped off plus it's a p4p list and he is the quintessential p4p fighter as he's been fighting constantly out of his weight class for the past few years and ripping him off on the cards is the only way to stop him.
1. Crawford 2. Usyk 3. Inoue 4. Bivol 5. Alverez 6. Beterbiev 7. Estrada 8. Fury 9. Spence 10. Davis BTW hello old friend
Will this be a brief stay? Or long term? If it's the latter, I'd suggest avoiding the lounge for the foreseeable future.
1. Bud Crawford 2. Naoya Inoue 3. Oleksandr Usyk 4. Canelo Alvarez 5. Jermell Charlo 6. Dmitry Bivol 7. Devin Haney 8. Shakur Stevenson 9. Artur Beterbiev 10. Errol Spence Jr. HM: Fury, Teo, Loma, Estrada, Tank, Fulton Jr
