All-time p4p top 10
Collapse
-
I'm jus' going to let you guys know beforehand that my top 10 P4P is based on skill, head-to-head fighting and a very slight emphasis on accomplishments.
Top 10
1 - Roy Jones Jr.
2 - Sugar Ray Robinson
3 - Muhammad Ali
4 - Roberto Duran
5 - Willie Pep
6 - Joe Louis
7 - Henry Armstrong
8 - Pernell Whitaker
9 - Ezzard Charles
10 - Thomas Hearns
As far as people comparing Calzaghe to Roy Jones Jr? LoL! Biggest laugh I've had all night. What a joke that is. Ahahahaha...Oh man. Head to head and based purely on skill? Roy Jones Jr. should be in everyone's top 5. Accomplishments, maybe not, but head to head and based on skill and ability? He has to be. Calzaghe on the other hand? He's the perfect embodiment of the phrase, "Show me a fighter who's undefeated and I'll show you a fighter who hasn't fought anybody."
Also...dominating one division for ten years? Roy Jones Jr. dominated three for over ten years. In fact, he went ten years basically without losing a round. The hell has Calzaghe done besides fight bums and Kessler/Lacy?Comment

oooo, contreversial p4p list, interesting. I'd like to correct you on the 10 years of domination, its 15 years that he has dominated 3 divisions not including the heavyweight title that he won. I forgot the number, but I think he won like 10 titles. And in those 10 titles he fought some great fighters. Its a joke that ppl are hating on Jones. You can make the argument that he shouldn't be top 5, but he should be top 10 for sure.I'm jus' going to let you guys know beforehand that my top 10 P4P is based on skill, head-to-head fighting and a very slight emphasis on accomplishments.
