    So is Calzaghe the P4P #1 Fighter Now?

    I was even foolish enough to think this fight could produce a new P4P king along with a lot of people on this board granted that the fight met its expectations.

    I wanna see the general consensus on this now.

    Calzaghe's victory over Hopkins is not a bigger win than Cotto's victory over Shane Mosley.

      All credit to him beating Hopkins but it doesn't mean he should ahead of Mayweather.

        No, he's not. He's still third on my list.

          Of course he is number 1.

          Pac-Man lost to Marques and Mayweathers resume is weak ass.

          He soundly beat a guy that just didnt want to fight all props.

            I can not put him ahead of Cotto. Similar type of big fights. Cotto did to Mosley what Cal should have done to Hopkins and that's win in impressive fashion.

              Where was Mosley on the P4P list when he lost?.Was he regarded as the best guy at his weight even?.

                Sorry?

                Hopkins didnt want to fight so how can you look good.

                Hopkins had just beat Tarver (new IBF champ) and Winky Wright.

                Calzaghe 11yr champion beat Kessler beat Hopkins and you want Cotto ahead?

                  Very tight imo. 2 is definitely warranted. He's going to face a big opponent next, if he wins that he's no. 1 I think. Esp if Floyd picks another fight he's expected to clearly win.

                    It still doesn't account for the fact that he did not want to throw for the first 6 rounds of the fight really. And was dropped in the first round. Cotto has looked great in all of his recent fights. Did you see him destroy Judah? Outclass Mosley? P4P for me also has to do with performance and how you look. Not always about who you beat and how he beat someone else. Lacy and Kessler were good performances though. He didn't or hasn't looked as good as Cotto. Sorry we don't agree.
