P4P UPDATES FOR: DECEMBER/JANUARY
- 12/21: Number two rated Oleksandr Usyk repeated his success over Tyson Fury, cementing his spot near the top of the pound-for-pound list.
- 01/24: Number one rated Naoya Inoue made a successful defense of his gold at 122 pounds, beating Ye Joon Kim inside of four rounds. His ranking remains the same.
- 01/31: After a reassessment of recent form and quality of opposition, Oleksandr Usyk takes over the top spot in the pound-for-pound rankings, meaning Naoya Inoue now sits in second place.
HOW THE RANKINGS ARE COMPILED
1. Pound-for-pound rankings and Top Five rankings are based on the last five years of a fighter's career. For P4P rankings, championships, results, etc. will only reflect that time period.
2. Activity and high-level opposition in significant fights will be considered above almost all other factors.
3. Wins over fellow P4P fighters/Top Five fighters will also be weighed considerably.
4. At the beginning of each month, the rankings will be reassessed and moves may be made based more on overall form and what seems to make the most sense for the rankings as opposed to a specific result.
However, throughout the month, moves will be immediately made if a title change occurs, a fighter leaves the division, or a ranked fighter suffers a defeat.
