    I don't understand why Kovalev and GGG are ranked P4P when they have never beaten a single p4p fighter
    Wlad was P4P. Once Fury beat him he should have at least made the top 10. WTF

    IMO at the moment wilder does not have the resume or skills to be a lb for lb fighter

    povetkin is not close to the p4p list and non of wilders other 36 opponents are really top 100 fighters p4p

    wilder has very good power and i believe the abilty and speed if he would calm down and not go ko happy to be a very hard boxer to beat / but at the moment he is sloppy and reckless on offense a lot of the time winging hail marys instead of breaking down and picking his shots.

    fighting in your opponents backyard v a genuine top 5 heavy and winning is a very good acheivement and deontay should and would get the accolades this merits but still not a top 10 does that make him yet.

    If Kovalev, GGG, Crawford and Yamanaka are considered P4P fighters then it should be Wilder if he beats Povetkin in Russia. :good

    Fury has to be in P4P 10 rankings since he beat Wlad in Germany.

    But he is going to be knocked out early and brutally, so the point is moot.

    Since he can't do his short camp/steroids cycle trick, he probably won't last two rounds.

    He might be top 20 with that win (which won't happen), one good win does not mean top 10 p4p.
