Dan's a cool guy, I met him at a fight. You can disagree with him without personally attacking him can't you? Some people cannot handle that. Anyways, I wouldn't put Wladimir in the P4P because I feel that HW should never be in the P4P. Kessler? Probably still top 20 but he's gonna need a good name win to get near that top ten. Beyer and Andrade are good fighters but he's gonna need a Winky Wright on his resume. I think Taylor is not knocked down due to the loss as much as its the loss combined with the Ouma/Stinks fights. If you want Taylor back in the top 8 there's one easy way and thats in February......
Dan Rafael
Dan Rafael is a fat - child molesting - mess.
I'm with the consensus: 1-10 good... 11-20 (huh?)
Also. Why does Jermain Taylor get absolutely NO LOVE from p4p lists. Doesn't make any sense. It kind of makes me think that these gus are playing favorites.
I agree with his top 10. But his top 20 is fucked. Margarito and De La Hoya ahead of Kessler. Some people have no idea about boxing.
It annoys me that the great fighters at SMW get treated like shit in pound for pound rankings, because there is not a large fan base in that division yet. The top contenders of SMW are going to have to wait for Pavlik and Taylor to move up before they are rated in pound for pound.
Exactly, Kessler and Wlad to me are arguably top ten
I have a problem with 11-20, but the top ten is legit. Of course Hopkins is unreasonably high, but if it helps hype the fight with Calz I'll live with it.
