Pacquiao has fought a PRIME Barrera who was number 4 on the P4P list at the time but Domain says he was number 2-3 so i'm not sure but last time I saw him on there he was 4. He fought a SLIGHTLY past it Morales who was still in the P4P but near the bottem. He fought two razor thin wins over now P4P 3 in Marquez. He has fought the Prime Flyweights and bantams win his early career who have belts and were worthy opponents but not amazing. He OUTCLASSED and KO'd a top5 lightweight titlest who should be the linear titlest at lightweight because he beat Santa Cruz who was robbed by Casamayor. Now he's fighting a guy 17 pounds up from his best weight (Pac was best at SFW) No offense boof but your analysis is rubbish.You were the ones who didn't care about titles. You were the ones who voted Ring mag as the true title. Now you see the result of your pathetic belief? We are only seeing fights with name fighters that you know and respect. We are not getting the true fights that we need to see.
Juan Marquez and a few others who fall under the radar have been the few bright spots in boxing because fighters like Marquez, Guzman, Campbell, Casamayor aren't afraid of anyone. PAc still has not fought any respectable prime opponents. Pav is fighting and old man, so is Pac. Cotto is recuperating, Margs won't fight Wiliams, it's all your faults lol. You don't respect fighters you don't know or have seen in limited time. Youtubing and coming up with your analysis of fighters lol. How good is Sassakul lol.
Anyway, thanks guys, now we don't really have a legit top 10. How do you think Margs and Cotto became world champions lol, what a joke. Now we have a Ring top 10. You will never see another Baldomir, Mayorga, Torres etc come out of nowhere in boxing anymore and upset the applecart. Boxing is screwed as long as Arum has the top fighters, and until Arum is retired, we will see this recycled mess for a while. Prime fighters fighting inferior, old, almost shot comp. Cal is fighting ancient Roy...this is goddamn pathetic lol. Cal just fought Hop. Thanks boxing fans, you voted Ring as the most legit rankings...comical.
We no longer have a complete fighter atop the P4P list but all the fighters are worthy of there claim of their P4P spot. If the P4P list is rubbish now then it was rubbish when Floyd was on it because look who was on it. The only people that have changed are Hatton, Cotto who have been replaced my Mijares and Margarito.Comment

Couldn't agree more. No one fights in their own division. Contrary to what casual fans of the sport may think, there are terrific matchups to be made for the high profile fighters that you mentioned. Unfortunately, I don't know how much blame can be spread to the fans or even to those on this blog interested in these high dollar goofy ass matchups that we are force fed. The promoters, H.BO., Showtime etc. are only going to put on matchups up who they( and I emphasize they) think fans will tune in to watch. I think there is a desperate need to generate more interest in younger talented fighters, but without the airtime how will this happen? What makes things even worse is that these rich pricks put together bull**** undercards on $50 PPV fights. I think that is the biggest travesty of all. Look how much H.B.O benefitted from showing a double header featuring both Margarito and Cotto. Although they had shown Margarito twice before, he really was not known by the casual fan. Its a process, that needs to be altered. A fighter himself will never do it, and it would probably be ****** on his part to do so when your shelf -life as in the sport is so limited. I think you are spot on with your opinion of Bob Arum, but I don't know how much will change if the mindset of future promoters doesn't change. Typical American capitalism if you ask me.Comment

Barrera was ring old regardless of his ranking, Morales too. Diaz was a bum, PAc wasn't the best at SFW ever. I'm assuming you are talking about Diaz who beat Santa Cruz who Casamayor got a gift with. Sorry, that isn't a strong enough case by you either. Casa has been old for a while. How Diaz and Morales even fought for the title is comical. I didn't even give any analysis so what are you talking about RYNO? I'm talking about Rings rankings, not Rings pfp rankings anyway.Pacquiao has fought a PRIME Barrera who was number 4 on the P4P list at the time but Domain says he was number 2-3 so i'm not sure but last time I saw him on there he was 4.

This is a very good post..............emphasis on the young fighters. Heck, put them on the undercardCouldn't agree more. No one fights in their own division.

You should a boxing promoter!Barrera was ring old regardless of his ranking, Morales too. Diaz was a bum, PAc wasn't the best at SFW ever.

If I were a promotor, I would force you fans to watch Pav-Abraham, Pac-Valero, Hop-Jones, Wlad-Haye, Margs-Williams, John-Linares, Juanma-izzy V, Caballero-Raf Marquez, Hatton-Holt, Berto-Clottey, Forrest-Mora II, Cal-G. Johnson, Tarver-Dawson, Cunningham-who ever etc...you feel me. I'd strip those guys who wouldn't accept the fight...Comment
