Theres no P4P rankings, but we all know they don't mean anything anyway. At least divisional rankings have some objectivity to them.

Bump for TBRB. Only official unbiased and legitimate ranking system currently in place.

Broner and Guerrero are very good fighters but I think it's early to put them in the top ten pound for pound fighters in the world. There are lots of good proven fighters in the world and at least 10 of them rate higher than these two at this time but Oscar promotes both of them and he owns the ring. That is a big conflict of interest.

bradley lost to be fair, marquez chinned the top p4p fighter of the last few years in style. i can see why he got it. im not sure if i agree with broner being top ten p4p but he is a very good fighter, even if he does copy floyd.

So called "boxing experts" from around the world vote for the P4P rankings, they don't just choose them.

i don't know why anyone would be upset at Marquez receiving the FOTY honour. he had only one standout win all year, but what a win. with his nose a red smear, under ferocious pressure in what had become a blazing war, he knocked a top 50 ATG cold, an ATG whom he had been chasing a victory over for nigh on a decade. that is huge. spectacular.

For me that happened when Oscar bought it.

However, JMM's brutal KO of the Pacman is enough to get him the FoY designation.

Meh, even a broken clock is right twice a day...

just a consolation prize for Marquez. i dont agree he is the FOTY by any stretch though, KO of the Year, Fight of the Year, year

you've got to reward guys like Donaire who fight 4 times a year and remain active while also advocating being a clean athlete
