    Is Pac P4P #1 because of his entertaining fighting style?

    After watching JMM today and after watching JMM beat Pacquaio in their second fight.

    I can only come up with one assumption.

    That is, fighters with entertaining styles are given preference over fighters without as entertaining styles.

      I think it has to do with his dominance and competition in the recent years.

      he is also a fairly active fighter which is rare when you get guys in the top p4p lists.

      floyd jr and oscar usually fight 1 or 2 fights a year pacman wants to fight 3-4 times a year.

        Floyd boring style beats both of them, but it wouldn't be that boring since they are his natural weight

          pac is #1 not because of his entertaining fight style but with the caliber of his opponent. just imagine being 1-1(however disputable that may be) with Marquez who is #3 during their last fight, 2-1 against EM and 2-0 against MAB(the last two both in top 10 in P4P during fight night).

              But JMM beat Pac in their last fight.

              And Jmm beat Casamayor. Who is a lot better than David Diaz.

                  Pacquiao's actual wins against stellar competition have him as a lock for #1. I really don't understand any of the arguments against his position on top.
