    Which of these three boxers do you consider P4P #1 right now: Usyk, Inoue or Crawford?

    Or is it someone else?

    Very close. Could make a good argument for any of the three.

    It could be any of the three. There shouldn't be an argument for anyone outside of Usyk, Inoue, and Crawford.

    I chose Crawford simply for the fact that when it comes to the common accomplishments of all the current Undisputed champs in the 4 belt era and specifically these three 2x undisputed champs......Crawford is the trend setter. It became the cliche goal/mission for the elites ever since Crawford did it at 140lbs vs Julius Indongo. Before that day, it had been over a decade since the last undisputed champ. since then we've had 9 undisputed championships be awarded to 7 different fighters in 7 years.

    Usyk is a definition of a pound for pound fighter.

    Based on record Usyk is undoubtedly P4P number one; I don't think Usyk's retirement is long away, at which point Inoue will be the heir

    Definitely Usyk cause of resume but if we’re using the original definition of P4P and scaling everybody up/down in size then Inoue

    Usyk but I haven't got a problem with anyone who picks one of the other two.

    Usyk

    Compare the last performance of the 3 fighters and it tells you everything. Usyk beating the much bigger Fury and nearly knocking him out was crazy when you put it in context.

    Usyk.

    He hasn't had the recognition by anyone but realistically speaking he's been the best boxer on the planet since the moment he put on a pair of professional gloves.

    Usyk or Crawford for me but being honest as boxing fans who follow the sport we all know there is also a solid case for either of the three to be hailed as P4P no 1 .
