1. Lomachenko
2. Crawford
3. Canelo
4. Inoue
5. Spence
6. Usyk
7. Golovkin
8. Estrada
9. Pacquiao
10. Garcia


Spence is getting some favoritism from some guys. Moynihan and Pilatti both have Spence at #2. But overall, the ESPN list stayed the same. Ward doesn't really give Canelo any credit for beating Kovalev. Interesting take.

 

[DeJulez]

FUCK THAT SHIT.
Canelo #1

 

[Yacob]

Not biased at all

 

[revoltub]

Loma should not be 1

 

[Yacob]

Loma should not be 1

It is kind of weird how such an incredible talent can still be so grossly overrated....


And at the same time we have that Roy Jones thread saying he's overrated....

 

[AGEZ909]

Idk how crawford is above canelo.


Extremely talented, but he doesn't have the resume canelo does.

I'd put canelo above both loma and crawford.

 

[burningspear]

Seems ok to me.

 

[DeJulez]

Top 4 P4P: Combined Record Last 5 Opponents
RECORD WIN PCT
Canelo Alvarez 171-6-2 .955
Terence Crawford 119-5-1 .952
Naoya Inoue 126-8-3 .920
Vasiliy Lomachenko 140-12-3 .903

Weird that their top 2 p4p also have exclusive contracts with ESPN.

Idk how crawford is above canelo.

I'd put canelo above both loma and crawford.

I don't get how Crawford is on there at all, really.

I’m not really a fan, but Canelo is #1 and it’s clear.

 

[HandNoise]

Wack ass list, Crawford hasn’t fought anyone. Naoya is okay him and Spence are tied based on resume Spence beat Porter but it’s not like he’s cleaned the whole division.

I think 1. Canelo 2. Loma, Inoue & Spence should be above Crawford based on recent wins. That shit comes from me and im a fan of the guy and pick him to beat Spence.

 

[Goatenstein]

Good, looks like most voters aren't impressed by Canelo fighting nursing home residents. Dan Rafael, however, would gladly jack off Fury and Canelo at the same time.

Jorge Linares and Lamont Peterson though, now those are the guys that make a fighter's resume great.

ESPN never had good boxing rankings. Ring Magazine and BoxRec are the only places to check if you’re interested in rankings.

Boxrec has some of the worst rankings of all time

Horrendous

 

[PUO3]

Wtf has Crawford done again?

 

[Mendacious]

Boxrec has some of the worst rankings of all time

I always checked Ring, I thought BoxRec would have some good rankings because don’t they do it via algorithm?

 

[eternaldarkness]

because he the best boxer in the world. regardless of resume. i get what your saying though.
