Is it safe to say that the Top 5 fighters in the world are in no particular order.
Mayweather
Pacquiao
Williams
Dawson
Martinez

williams and dawson do not deserve to be on that list. Wlad goes in and so does timothy bradley.
HW's can be P4P. It is silliness to think they can't.
Tyson in the mid to late 80's deserved to be ranked P4P in the top 10. At one point he was #1.
At one point he was looked as unbeatable the baddest man on the planet.
HW's can be P4P. I don't get why some think they shouldn't be. If there is a HW P4P that is the best fighter in the planet then he should be ranked.
It is just dumb to refuse to rank them IMO.
However, the Klistchko's do not IMO deserve to be ranked in the top 10 P4P.
If Wlad and JMM were fighting and they were the same height same reach same weight. JMM would beat both of them. That is the definition of P4P.

yep i agree heres my order
1.mayweather
2.pacquiao
3.williams
4.martinez
5.dawson
5. Wladimir Klitschko Everyone 200+ is scared of him
This is the only one I don't agree with. For two reasons.
1) HWs can't be p4p anything. They are the heaviest fighters and due to such, p4p does not apply to them because p4p means smaller guys with the skill to beat bigger guys but wouldn't be expected to win because of the size difference.
and
2) As scary as Wlad may be, Vitali is also in the HW division. If the two were to ever fight each other, I would favor Vitali over Wlad.
On Topic: I really see nothing wrong with your list Burner besides Martinez.
Martinez hasn't done anything to be considered top 5. Sure, he's a cool guy, flashy boxer but just because he beat a guy who an old guy schooled... doesn't equate top 5 imo. If he were to rematch PWill and beat him, then I would easily change my mind. Pavlik just isn't anything special imo, he had the title for so long because he refused to fight people.
1. Mayweather Hasnt lost since mid 90's in the amateurs
2. Manny Pacquiao Obliterated every guy since 2008.
3. Chad Dawson Everyone from 168-200 is scared of him
4. Paul Williams Everyone 147-168 is scared of him
5. Wladimir Klitschko Everyone 200+ is scared of him

I agree, if Martinez is on the list, Williams has to be on the list.
why didn't you say it's p4p then, sounds like you're backtracking now. it didn't start out as p4p now suddenly it is just so you could exclude the true 5th greatest fighter on the planet Wlad Klitschko. Sounds like a racist agenda to me.
Anyways perhaps your sig to be most accurate should say "40 have tried 41 times, but all 40 have failed 41 times, given the fact that one unfortunate somebody failed twice in a row" :lol1:
If Wlad is the 5th greatest fighter on the planet then I have a 12" dick
