    If Wilder beats Fury he will be top 10 P4P.

    Of course that is fine. P4P lists are subjective, everyone views the sport diferently, as well as the participants. My P4P list is probably way different than yours. Neither is wrong or right, it is a reflection of how you personally view the sport.

    Usyk setting a trap here. He thinks he schools Wilder and wants to get a lot of his doubters to agree Wilder is top 5 so they can't deny him a space at the top of the tree if he gets the W over Wilder or someone who has beaten Wilder.

    FFS... Shane Mosley was top 3 for getting one good win in a decade...

    And Wilder is top 5 due to.... 2 solid contender wins?!

    Oh P4P... you keep making fools of fans... :lol:

    Usyk is clearly trying to sell a potential fight, here. It is what smart opponents do.

    Similar to how Arum and others talk about his big power when virtually every vicitm has been beaten more quickly by someone else, except for Scott who took and obvious dive.

    Wilder doesn't typically get enough credit on this board.

    Thankfully that's starting to change.

    I can see putting Wilder in my top 10 P4P. Not sure about top 5.

    There is a gulf between Wilder and some of of the other top guys -- eg, Canelo or Loma -- in terms of accomplishments and/or dominance.

    But then there aren't too many Canelos and Lomas to fill out an entire top 5/10 ranking.

    Uysk is proving how subjective the term is.

    Usyk's a funny guy

    I can see an argument for Bootleg D being ranked in the P4P top 5 hardest punchers in the sport even though he's only been bowling over worn out old plastic skittles. But a place in the actual P4P top 10??

    You are probably right about Usyk here, but as for Arum's words - I think he genuinely thinks what he said about Wilder's power. Szpilka is a good example here. He was outboxibng Wilder for 8+ rounds but then one punch from Deontay knocked him out cold. Kownacki stopped Szpilka much quicker tha Wilder did, but he needed a lot more punches to land on Szpilka's chin to stop him.
