Saw this on r/boxing Does Tyson Fury become P4P #1 after he KOs Anthony Joshua? Think about it 32 Fights 32 Wins Undefeated Lineal Ring Magazine WBC WBA WBO IBF
How would beating AJ make him P4P #1? He would have to do it in a faster and more impressive fashion than Ruiz did. AJ has been exposed he is a Glass Jawed fighter. You usually don’t make P4P statements beating that type of opponent.
It seems counterproductive to give the fighter with the most pounds top P4P honors, but he would have to be on the list anyway.
No. Fury is the best heavyweight fighting today, but career wise, has only beaten two top 100 all time fighters - one was going on 40, and the other, Deontay Wilder, can’t box. But if he was able to beat Joshua.. Can he become: The Greatest Boxer P4P who ever lived?No way. The Greatest active boxer P4P today? Not Only Yes But Hell Yeah.
Fury, Usyk, A.J, Wilder, Ruiz if these guys had fight each other quickly we could get something clear in this division.
I think he should be in the conversation for P4P#1 for sure with a win over AJz, and I would be fine with putting him at the top. People often want to remove HWs from the P4P discussion, but in Fury's case he belongs. His style, build with those long arms, and motor translates very well to the smaller weight classes.
Most P4P'ders are farts in the wind compared to Fury Example 2010 P4P (boxrec) [url]Nonito Donaire[/url] [url]Pongsaklek Wonjongkam[/url] [url]Fernando Montiel[/url] [url]Wladimir Klitschko[/url] [url]Timothy Bradley[/url] [url]Juan Manuel Lopez[/url] Farts in the wind. Crawford is going to retire very soon with 0 signature wins. Fury will go down in history as a top 10 ATG heavyweight. All your airy fairy pound for pound mythical fighters count for nothing.
I know but who can remember "P4P" lists from 2010? no one because nobody should care and history does not care.
