Difficult to argue with the Top 3. Arguments can be made for any of these to be no1 but I think they've probably got it right.

Underneath that becomes a bit more of a discussion point. Personally I would have Bivol at 4. I think Spence should still feature even after his pasting last week.

Anti fury brigade in full force

Crawford should be number 1 without a doubt

Not sure I agree spence should feature. He was battered and looks a different boxer now

It's hard to make a case for Fury when the only people he's fought in the last 18 months are Dillian Whyte and Derek Chisora. Fighting Ngannou is going to do nothing to help his case either is it?

I'm not giving up on Spence. He got beat up by Crawford but that's not an embarrassment. Crawford was outstanding. He's said he's moving up in weight because he's struggling to make 147 now. Whether that was a factor or not is yet to be seen but I'll see how he looks at 154 before I say he's finished.

Fury should be nowhere near a list like this. On another note, any idea how Fury hasn't be stripped of his belt yet?

Because the WBC are totally inept and have failed to appoint a mandatory since Whyte. With no mandatory in place, they don't really have much of a case to strip. Fury is taking full advantage of the situation by dodging anyone who poses even the slightest amount of risk for him.
 
P4P is about ability. No one can deny fury has ability. Can’t take anyone serious when they can’t have a proper conversation about boxing cos of their hatred for one boxer

Yes he’s tarnished the sport of mate, I’d expect once he belts have been stripped he’ll move out of the rankings. He’s already dropping

I don't think anyone hates him mate. They just can't say with any certainty that he's as good as he claims. He won't get in and back it up. All the others on that list have fought the best of their division. Most of them have fought the best in more than one division.

You can't say that about Fury

So he's in the current P4P rankings because he beat someone 8 years ago? Might as well throw Lennox Lewis in there as well.

True though, mayweather and calzaghe need to be on that list, post haste!

That’s not what I said. You said you couldn’t say fury has beat the best, he has.

By your reckoning usyk shouldn’t be in there, he hasn’t beat the best in the division in fury

You just can’t have a serious conversation about boxing with some on here

He beat the best 8 years ago. He won't get in with any of the current elite.

Usyk beat everyone in his division. He was undisputed at cruiserweight. He's then moved up and beat the unified champ twice and let's be honest done his best to try and get the fight to be undisputed.

Not going to lie, you making a bit of a t1t of yourself here.

I don’t think I am. Fury is dropping down the rankings in the p4p. He still holds belts. It’s not hard to see why he is ranked 6th.

I doubt he’ll be in the top 10 2024
