    i was thinking about him, but he is “old” relative to where he is in his career (That's why he is taking the fast lane)

      The last 3 fighters to reign as p4p for years were Pea, RJJ and PBF. All of them showed signs of being special very very early in their careers. None of those listed even comes close.
      I couldn't agree more. If such a fighter exists he didn't make that list. If I had to choose it would be Cotto.

        I say Gamboa or Linares, I just hope these two get in the ring someday, both have the potential to be great.

            Two possible choices. Jorge Linares or Yuriorkis Gamboa.

              You're picking Margarito over Cotto and you think he'll be P4P #1 in all of Boxing?? For years no less?? HaHA.. Strange.

                  Jorge Linares is a very talented fighter. I was very impressed with him on the Hopkins/Wright undercard last year.

                    Out of that list I would choose Cotto.
                    no i think your mate wlad is guna get exposed by a much better and more natural boxer, wlad is mediocre and haye , when he is given time to let his body grow into heavyweight, and once he has gotten some confidence up against a few contenders will knock wlad out

                      Like many people already, of the listed names, Cotto.

                      However I don't think any of them have what it takes to be a true p4p #1 like Mayweather.

                      They're all just too beatable, and unlike Floyd, they don't have skills that are not found elsewhere, in other fighters.

                      I'd say the future p4p #1 is currently just a relatively unknown prospect, or even an amateur. I think it'll be a long time before we see someone like Floyd again.
