Bivol and Beterbiev are both very, very good. Bivol can't claim to be P4P unless he beats Beterbiev. In fact, I'd say at the moment Artur's case to be on a P4P list is stronger than Bivol's because, after all, he's older and holds three belts to Bivol's one. A win over Canelo - who doesn't really have much business at LHW - doesn't change this for me.
Nicely said....Also Gvozdyk win is better then any win on Bivol's resume. For me Beterbiev is ahead of Bivol in any useless P4P list.
Technically HW are not suppose to be on p4p list. Historically, p4p list was created for every weight class except HW. Spence is ahead of Bivol and Inoue in my opinion.
I've always been keen on Spence but I definitely can't have him higher than Bivol or Inoue for now - he just hasn't done enough recently. Even on eye test he hasn't been that good lately, which makes me worry that the car crash has compromised him. If he beats Crawford I'll happily elevate him there, but that's what's needed.
Ward? Lmao Ward is a clown and a fraud. He hugged/lowblowed/elbowed/headbutt people in his native village in front of extended family posing as judges. He doesn't have 2% of Bivol's skill. Calzaghe is a SMW who had his last two fights at LHW against natural middleweights. GTFO boyo
Are you serious? Since the accident, he beat up Danny and beat up Ugas! Both each off a year and a half layoff. So how is he not the same? If anything, he's back focused and hungry! Will look even better his next fight. I can respect your opinion though. It's all subjective.
That's 2 fights in 3 years though, which is hardly staying active. He also didn't look quite as good as I'd hoped. I do hope you're right, I'll be rooting for him against Crawford
Like the old saying goes, opinions are like assh*les, everyone's got one. In your case, I can scarcely tell the difference between the two.
