Should Mayweather Jr. be removed from the Ring's P4P?

i don't think he should but if he doesn't schedule a fight soon he should fall down it.

what sweet jesus said

how could you not have the most talented boxer of this generation in the P4P list?

When Juan Manuel Marquez lost to Floyd Mayweather was put at #3, by The Ring, and many other lists. Why have you said triangle theories don't work? What does that have to do with anything? The only person that has refered to a traingle theory in this thread is you in that post. What does Shane having losses on is record have to do with anything? Shane had lost to the same amount of people Manny has before the Mayweather fight. Your logic is Floyd should be #5 P4P for returning from being #1 to beat argubally #1 in his weight class and #3 P4P. That's fine, thats your logic. Flawed logic, but whatever. I try put FLoyd into perspective on how busy you are and how many p4p ranked fighters you beat. SSM is the really only just about the only p4p ranked fighter FLoyd has beat, apart from Hatton. But we know Floyd got a lot of help to beat Hatton and it was at 147 a weight class didnt dominate in. The p4p system you have to accumulate points. If FLoyd had of beat Margarito, Cotto and SSM then he would deserve p4p no2 status. He cant get that by beating one guy in SSM. The JMM fight i wont mention, it is irrelevant for reasons everyone knows. SSM didnt deserve to be no3 p4p on the basis of beating Margarito. So FLoyd shouldnt have inherited his position, unless he at least beat Cotto.

How does SSM beating Margarito make him p4p no3? It was a good performance by SSM but i think people go overboard on this performance.....one performance. SSM sure he beat Marge, but SSM would still lose to Cotto. SSM had been beaten how many times before the margarito fight.? Just because Floyd beat SSM dont neccesarily mean Floyd should move above SSM as many have beaten SSM, and SSM dont necesarily deserve no3 p4p anyway. Dont mean Floyd would beat Margarito and it dont mean he would beat Cotto, also triangle theories dont work. Floyd needs to do more to be justified a no2 p4p ranking. Many could beat JMM at WW and many have beat SSM. When Juan Manuel Marquez lost to Floyd Mayweather was put at #3, by The Ring, and many other lists. Why have you said triangle theories don't work?

If he doesn't schedule a fight by May 1st, 2011, he'll be removed from the P4P list. I think this should be it.

That's what the Ring does with their divisional rankings. I don't if the same applies for the P4P rankings, but I don't see why it would be any different. Paulie Ayala didn't defend his title for something like 2 years and he kept the Ring belt.

I agree. Returning to the ring from being #1 P4P and beating arguably the #1 in your division who just so happens to be P4P #3 totally means he should be ranked at about #5. Your post makes absolute sense. How does SSM beating Margarito make him p4p no3? It was a good performance by SSM but i think people go overboard on this performance.....one performance.

When he's past one year of inactivity in a few months, then he should be dropped from the ratings. But not now, not yet. However, he should go down to p4p #6 to #10 due to having so few fights and for only fighting OLD (Shane) or MUCH SMALLER (JMM) men. this makes no sense. shane was #3 on most lists so dropping floyd for beating him would be like a p4p list turning on itself. it makes no sense.

No, Floyd should not be removed from the P4P list. he fought last may, let them wait till June this year before removing him from the list.....

No he wasn't. If the two guys above him in the P4P were both welterweights he was literally not arguably number 1 at welterweight. And again, everyone that was ranking him so highly was on crack, or PEDs, they probably got the pills from Shaneroid himself. just shut up, u dont kno wat ur talking about.

P4P is meaningless. It's a fancy claim for a fighter on the mic or in his press conferences, but meaningless in reality. PBF should be removed from the 147 lb rankings though. took the words right out of my mouth

If he won't fight for a full year (which he won't ofcourse) he should be temp removed from the list. If he then fights again in a reasonable timeframe (say 2~ish years) he could be activated on the same spot if his last performance warrants it and Sergio Martinez hasn't made a case for surpassing him.

According to who? Again, I don't know how this isn't a logical conclusion. Two welterweights, both are P4P number 1 and 2, yet Shane Mosley is somehow number one in the division? What special kind of retard makes that argument? Don't you feel Shane stopping the #1 ranked fighter at 147 Margarito is more impressive than either of Floyd or Pacqiauo's fights prior to Shane fighting Floyd? Personally, i do. Who make's that argument? Many. After all, he was the Lineal Champ. Alot of people tend to make an argument that the Lineal Champion is the best fighter in their respective division. Just saying.

He was Lineal Champion at 147. His fight prior to Floyd being more impressive than both Floyd and Pacqiauo's last fights before Shane fought Floyd. So yes, he was. Ok, thats your opinion. The Ring still had him at P4P #3, and there the rankings everybody has being going by for a long time now. According to who? Again, I don't know how this isn't a logical conclusion.

Shane Mosley was the Lineal Champion at 147 and was arguablly the #1 fighter at 147 when Floyd fought him Also, Shane actually was P4P #3 when Floyd fought him. These are facts. No he wasn't.

**** i voted no because your ****ing title is the opposite of the question in the poll what a trick. it says should he be taken out but the poll says should he stay in. i voted no looking at the thread title :lol1: :rofl:

He really has until the end of February to schedule a fight before May. That includes negotiations, promoting, and two months training.
