Should excitement be factored into ranking systems?

it really shouldnt, but it is a part of the rankings. thats why Ali is overwhelmingly considered the best heavyweight of all time, thats why Marquez and Vasquez just jumped through to the top of the p4p lists, thats why old time fighters are sometimes considered so far ahead of todays fighters.
and you should somewhat be ranked by 'excitement'. usually exciting fights go hand in hand with looking 'impressive', and looked impressive against good fighters make you jump up any rankings.Comment

So you hate Floyd with "logic", and "insurmountable common sense" huh? Well riddle me this dumbass. Hasn't Floyd put gianormous ass whuppins on two of the most exciting fighters that have ever fought? If I got to give you the names of said fighters, then you shouldn't be talking out of your neck. So on the p4p "excitement scale" wouldn't Floyd STILL be number one?Comment

i dont like the way floyd is fighting his fights but you have to admit that he has mad skills dude... plainly hating him isn't healthy... you're like what xcaret is to Pacquiao... see what i mean?
and about the gatti's that floyd has been fighting, i'd watch it over and over again... it was a beating... exciting beating...

It's not the fact that they are "exciting" it's more so how they win. By knockouts.
That should play a factor in the p4p rankings, how you are winning. But as far as being exciting.....well I think Mayorga was exciting as they come (in both Forrest and Tito fights). That doesn't equal him to being in the top 5 pound for pound though.Comment

floyd as p4p number 1 in excitement is a little bit off I should say... he gave gatti a beating, i loved it, but after that? not much excitement in his fights... he is like a Juan Manuel Marquez, they showcase mad boxing skills but they need a live, pressing opponent which is usually not the case...So you hate Floyd with "logic", and "insurmountable common sense" huh? Well riddle me this dumbass. Hasn't Floyd put gianormous ass whuppins on two of the most exciting fighters that have ever fought?
