Nice top 5. Mikey and Crawford haven't 'beaten the best to be the best' but it's hard to argue with them being there.
I agree with you about Crawford. Very special but his last fights have been against a bloke who hobbled around b/c he got shot in the leg, a tough, unskilled bloke who needed 3 Adelaide Byrd's to 'win' his belt and Indongo. Hopefully Bud and fights to unify at with at least one of the other WW belt holders.
1. Lomachenko (fighting the top opponents in a weightclass that is too big for him and looking great, hasn't lookedas sharp in the last fight against Pedraza, but is coming back from a serious surgery and fighting another bigger guy in an unification fight, winning 9 rounds agzinst him) 2. Usyk (beating the top opponents and outclassing them all in their own backyards) 3. Crawford (looking great in outclassing his opponents, that aren't on the level of Lomachenko's and Usyk's opponents, but juding by the eye test is looking superior to anybosy else in ww division) 4. Up till now it was Golovkin, who I had winning both of Canelo fights, but is on a clear decline, I believe Canelo would legitimately beat him the third time. I may even put Canelo on the 4th place, despite it sounding hypocritical from me, as I just told you I had him loosing both fights, but his incline in the last 2 fights (again, despite me having him loosing the 2nd fight, too) was as visible to me in these 2 fights, as was Golovkin's decline. You can say I should leave Golovkin on the 4th spot at least until his next fight, or until he starts looking visibly worse, as I had him winning both fights, and it may be true, you may be right, I can do that, it's just that I see where Golovkin is heading. He is heading down. I guess in a couple of months or a year at most, there would be a visible difference between Canelo and Golovkin, in Canelo's favor. 5. The looser of the battle for the 4th spot, Inoue, or Garcia. Inoue is looking amazing against not so great opponents and is consistant, while Garcia is consistantly looking good against the average at best opponents, looking good against them.
I love how people get so passionate over what is essentially fiction. If my appendage was the same size as your appendage you'd be a set of very lucky men. Pic?
Is it about my comment? If so, it is true that P4P lists are fiction, some analytical people like myself just prefer to go in more details and explain that way their choices and what are their parameters for rating a boxer.
Golovkin and canelo both in it. Lomachenko. Inoue. Probably usyk. The Japanese guy looks unstoppable atm. Putting him in with half decent guys and they can't compete with him. Lomachenko the most skilled fighter in the world not the number one lbl for me tho. I still say golovkins still more effective than him and usyk. Canelos in there somewhere as well...luckily for him his style was a hard one for golovkin. Golovkin Lomachenko Inoue Canelo Usyk Still think Inoue,s got the potential to be number one.
Loma Usyk Crawford Inoue Garcia I rank Inoue over Garcia because I firmly believe he'd he'd knock him out if they ever fought each other even though Garcia is much bigger than him. That's not a knock on Garcia because I have Inoue knocking out everyone from BW to HW with the exception of about 10 fighters.
