Ol p4p list subjectivity. I try to boil it down to obvious boxing skill and IQ and the credible high level scalps a guy has. But honestly these lists are genuinely all over the place
Random things for me...I love Spence. But I've seen him in top 5'ish. I can't quite get my head around that but he has quality scalps
Also total division unification is a big notch on the belt.
Really don't put a lot of big stock in leap frogging weights for trinket grabs or running up number of defenses. I mean, Michalczewski had over 20 ? defenses you'll never see him on some atg p4p. Though maybe Roy could have at least given it a go with him..just maybe.
P4P has become a marketing tag for the most part. A bit like "lineal"
On a side note I've seen massive push for Shakur Stevenson on many. Improved fighter off first major high level scalp..respects to Herring. Shakur is the goods and very sound. But one fight does not make you sure fire elite like p4p imo. So there's that.
Love Estrada. Get's overlooked in spots but honestly...can any list be respected that includes Estrada but not Chocolatito? Arguably he holds two wins over him. But Estrada did unify with split dec. And he beat Wangek who beat Chocolatito twice. But look at the old man ffs..he's a step slower but near fighting at his absolute best, still a boxing craft master. I hate p4p lists
I'd say top so far
Usyk
Crawford
Inoue
Canelo
now it gets hard
