    Well yes it is. The reasons hes not as highly ranked p4p is because unlike those ranked above him, he's never faced the best in his division.

    Usyk has faced Fury
    Crawford has faced Spence
    Inoue has faced Tapales
    Bivol has faced Beterbiev
    Beterbiev has faced Bivol

    Etc

    Wahid hasnt yet faced the best in his division.

    At the end of the day Inoue is an ATG and Gervonta is a club level fighter.

    Oh and Roach TKO 9.

    You can't be listing Tapales with a straight face. The great thing about pfp is that you can disregard those sorts of wins whereas you can't when stuck within the shallow and forgettable divisions in which they took place.

    What does anything you posted have to do with what I posted? Roach 28 total pro fights, 27 at 130 or below. Your opinion saying Roach is "probably better at 135" has literally zero basis in reality. And now your making gross generalizations about PBCs operations? Jesus Christ, your deluded mind playing tricks on you again. Please see your doctor.

    And why are you bringing up amateur records? This conversation is about a pro fight between two pros. Both pros involved have been pros for like 10 years. What is the relevance?

    Take your loss and SIT DOWN, sir

    Of course I can. The man who beat MJ and had 2 out of the 4 belts when Inoue had the other 2. That's exactly the fight everyone wanted to see, and it happened, and Inoue won.

    It would be like now if Wahid beat Shakur, Keyshawn and Loma.

    He literally fought above 130 over a decade ago when he didn’t have to deal with boxing politics.

    Boxing politics lmao. He got a shot at the 130 pound title a long time ago and got beat by Herring and he still continued to campaign at that weight for years. Your casual ass didn't even knew who he was or even talked about him until he signed to fight Gervonta.

    I'm gonna have a moment of silence in honor of your dead brain.

    Tapales beat MJ very easily. Just take your loss bro this is in the HOF of bad threads. Even MVC has had a couple good threads recently lmao

    What a load of **** had he faced MJ instead of Tapales your dumb cuck ass would be here asking why is Inoue fighting MJ instead of the guy who beat him. Lmao you're such a casual.

    Roach was underrated, I always rated him as a good fighter despite being one of the more underrated champions around right now, but he’s not a better opponent than Tapales just because he incidentally did well-ish against a lacklustre Tank. Inoue would straight up beat Roach, so imagine what would happen if they were the same size

    He was a part time fighter back then. You’re allowed to improve and move up in weight. Ask your boy Pacquiao.

    Nonsense. MJ arguably did enough to win but was flat during the first half due to ring rust. He won the second half easily and a rematch would be no issue.
