    Whatever, I'm not going to convince you that Kessler is as good as a lot of the people in the LW division, so why even try? You aren't convincing me that Kessler's resume sucks either, so... agree to disagree I suppose.
    Kessler is the lower weight equivalent of Larios. Only Larios in his prime was considered around number 15 P4P Kessler isn't even in the top 25.

      Uhhh...
      marquez gets dropped vs pac one of the fastest and most powerful punchers around. calzaghe gets dropped by hopkins and kabary salem. neither of those guys are fast or have power. not to mention calzaghes face first mora style of fighting makes him an easy target where marquez actually moves his head to avoid punches. i love watching pillow puncher salem plant calzaghes ass on the canvas as he's windmilling in the corner.

        It works both ways.
        Calzaghe get's hit just as much, only he throws **** back as opposed to Marquez' bad intentions..


        This is why even the 40 year old jones will beat Calzaghe.

          Kessler is definately in the top 20 p4p, most probably top 15. Educate yourself.

            He did't lose so he deserves to be number 2.

                yeah lowerweight equivalent of Rocky Juarez, insane power, slow speed. If Valero has a super middle weight equivalent, Calzaghe wouldn't touch him with a 50 foot pole. Pavlik is merely the lowerweight equivalent of undefeated puncher Jorge Linares.

                Think pound for pound bro.

                  I thought the P4P list had less to do with your record and more to do with who you can beat P4P. Calzaghe looked horrible against Hopkins and JMM looked very impressive against #1 P4P and then moved up in weight to beat the #1 ranked lightweight.

                    I got it... I just disagree with pretty much every comparison you made.

                    It's not a big deal. Different opinions is all.

                      Common misconception... it's about resume.

                      Otherwise Gamboa might be on there, which would be a travesty, considering how untested he is.
