NOW can we stop the disrespect on Crawford and put him at #1 p4p?

[iwng100]

NOW can we stop this disrespect on Crawford and put him at #1 at the P4P list? The disrespect was sickening, tbth...

I always felt Canelo had a lot to prove before he could have been placed at #1 p4p... But everyone serious in the game knew the #1 p4p is Terance Bud Crawford. Stop this disrespect on the man and put him #1...

1. Crawford
2. Spence
3. Fury
4. Inoue
5.... name the rest of the guys you like.

Fury at 3 ? He’s nowhere near it. He’s no different to many of the World champions in other divisions.
Inoue is #1
Crawford needs to fight and beat Spence and that settles everything.

Anything other than Crawford as #1 is racist.

Anything other than Inoue as #1 is racist.

NAOYA INOUE has moved to the top of Ring Magazine's latest pound-for-pound rankings.

The Japanese knockout specialist took just two rounds to blast out Nonito Donaire in their unification bantamweight rematch this week.

And that has been enough to see 29-year-old take top spot in the latest rankings that were released this week.

Canelo Alvarez had been in top spot for several months, but he has now been bumped off in the Ring Magazine's P4P top ten boxers.

The Mexican ace, 31, was outpointed by Russia's WBA light-heavyweight champion Dmitry Bivol last month.

It was just the second defeat of his 61-fight career, with his previous loss coming at the hands of Floyd Mayweather in 2013.

Prior to Canelo's shock defeat, he was sitting pretty at the top of the Ring's P4P list.

But he has now plummeted down in the rankings, while there is still no room for Tyson Fury after he signed off his career with a brutal knockout victory over Dillian Whyte last month.

The Ring Magazine still counts Fury as their top heavyweight and champion, though they have omitted him from their updated list.

And there is also no room for Anthony Joshua either - although that could all change if he wins his rematch with No.2 Oleksandr Usyk.

The Ukrainian took the heavyweight titles from AJ last September, and that also took him top of the P4P list.

But now Inoue’s latest victory, which unified the bantamweight division, propelled him above Usyk into pole position.

And, with Fury and Joshua’s omission, that means there is now only one British boxer left in the top ten.

Unbeaten star Josh Taylor retains his place, although he has dropped from sixth to ninth.

The 19-0 Scot is not to blame for the terrible scorecards that gifted him an undeserved win over Jack Catterall back in February but his air of invincibility has definitely suffered a dent.

Prior to that bout Taylor was one of British boxing’s biggest success stories, racing to undisputed 10st glory by taking on all of the best in his way and beating them convincingly.

He is definitely not the first big star to dodge a costly bullet thanks to some skew-whiff scoring, and his reputation has taken a big hit.

I think his point is that the sun made up that image for their newspaper, and the ring seem to list him as canelo Alvarez on their list...not that it matters much.

Yes, The Ring lists him as Canelo Alvarez. But the fact remains at least one media outlet deems him worthy of one-name status, a lofty honor usually reserved by the consensus GOATs of their sports (Jordan, Tiger, Serena, etc).

It just adds to that "fawning factor" that Ginger carries into the ring with him and sways the judges.

I agree. Where would you insert Beterbiev? I'd put him anywhere from 3rd to 5th.

(And I'd just call him Artur).

I'd put him around 5 i think, the guy is an offensive Monster and he's beating the opposition and taking the belts, although i think you could claim bivol should be ahead for beating Alvarez in such Fashion... For me the top 3 or 4 is set (Inoue, usyk,Crawford/Spence depending on your opinion)... After that the order doesn't matter too much, to me at least.

Just get bivol v beterbiev done and then the winner is potentially 3rd on my list, depending on how Crawford and Spence do.

To me, the Beterbiev-Bivol winner, (if done in dominating fashion), could potentially vault over the likes of Usyk, Crawford, and Spence... and end up second behind Inoue.

(I'm not taking that little guy out of first anytime in the near future).

[palmerq]

Yeah i could agree with that, i think there's not really a wrong answer for who would be top or top 3 if the bivol/beterbiev and Crawford/Spence fights happen soon.
Although after saying that i don't think I'd ever have beterbiev top, his defense just does look good enough for the top spot in my opinion.

I'm just loving Inoue and usyk right now though.
