Best P4P calculation

[Crazylegs77]

Theres not enough data to draw a conclusion on who the best p4p is unless its based on the probablility of a fighter winning (and even then youd have to factor in who they were fighting/fought into the equation), then whoever has the best record would be p4p the best. Right?


You actually could do it.
Youd need all the win/lose records from all opponents a fighter has faced.
Get the win loss percentage from that and you could evaluate their overall competition. Then youd have their win/loss record over their overall competition level, from there you can determine (on paper) whose the best.

Does anyone agree?

I couldnt disagree more, BOXING ISNT ABOUT MATH!!!!!!!!! Plus alot of time its how u beat someone to, How good u look beating someone has alot to do with p4p

Right, boxing isnt about math and it couldnt account for style or wheter or not a fight was close, but as a boxing fan it would be interesting because it would show in an unbiased way who has fought the better competition and who is most likely the best. Id do it myself if I didnt have to enter all the data in manually..just to see what the results would be.

i dont think it would help at all, i think it would just confuse new fans

They use compubox to count punches and its good fan info to see the stats after the fights. It makes it easier for new fans. I think it should be added to compubox just as more stats to give an overview of the fighters potential..but sadly I am alone in finding this extremely interesting..
