    The old adage, whenever a boxer with a low ko percentage is getting highly touted one must smell horse****.

    Haney for sure. Just a gigantic weight bully big 147 pounder winning UDs and robberies over natural and blown up 126, 130 and 135 pounders, most of whom were old and shot to bits or old and well past their prime, and all of whom he's much or way bigger, heavier and longer than, like between 2-4 divisions heavier. He's literally never fought a single champ close to his size and the fact he's even a lot bigger than career 140 Rougarou who really struggles to make weight speaks volumes.

    Sorry folks but that's not what P4P is about or should be. If you haven't even beaten a prime world champion close to your size you have no right being ranked in the P4P top 10 whatsoever. There are many fighters ranked in the top 10 who have not only done that loads of times but done so in 2, 3 or even more divisions many times and against much or way bigger ones many times at multiple weights.

    “He's literally never fought a single champ close to his size and the fact he's even a lot bigger than career 140 Rougarou who really struggles to make weight speaks volumes.”

    This is why the species questions things.

    When you look on Twitter then i'd say a fighter like Tank Davis is very overrated by casuals.

    If all these threads are made by 1 single person it doesn't really count.

    No. Canelo has better fighters on his resume. Also, that version of Spence would've lost to any Top 5 WW that night.

    Please explain how a former cruiserweight champion is pathetic?

    Granted his run at HW has not gone well but pathetic?

    He was nothing against Usyk.

    And he was beaten by Wallin, by points. That summarizes it all.

    I still don't see any reason why any the above means he is pathetic

    Work your logic.

    Wallin is pathetic, and still he beats Gassiev by points.
