Exactly what I've always said. Too many punk kids on here talk about this mythical "P4P" as if the rankings are somehow set in stone, or it's an achievement earned in the ring, etc.
The entire CONCEPT of "P4P" is a HYPOTHETICAL one. It goes like this: "if all the fighters in the world were the same weight, who would win?"
Now, no one can KNOW that. Not unless they put Wlad in a shrinking chamber or put Floyd in a grow bag. It's just for FUN. And before any Floyd fans start, I'm not suggesting he's not P4P No.1 (as if would dare
) it's the entire concept, like people arguing that Winky should be higher than Calzaghe because he's fought more proven competition (FFS, it ain't based on divisional rankings... if The Blow and Winky were the same weight, who do you think would win? Simple).
Basically, if you take "P4P" really seriously (a bunch of bored journalists each vote, and often get proved wrong, as when Sugar Shane, Roy and Bernard suddenly WEREN'T the No.1 overnight) then you're a ****sexual with AIDS. Fact.
