Re: If Brook beats fair and square Spence, will you consider that GGG beat a top 10 p4p fighter in Brook ?

No, exciting skilled fighters like Spence should be mentioned in p4p discussions instead of cherry pickers who had good wins years ago but nothing lately.
has to be based on results also, not potenial
Personally, I only consider recent results. For example, Mayweather and Pacquio had great careers, but in the last few years it was pretty crappy, so I would put Spence above them, as looking at how all of them performed in 2015-2016, I expect Spence to beat them.

if he beats brook and a couple of other good fighters he gets in for me, but not before, its a load of bollocks anyway, it just gives us something else to argue about on here !
