    Shane Mosley deserves #2 p4p spot!

    His latest fight vs Margarito was a huge mismatch against himself. Being 37 years of age he won not only convincingly but by brutal KO, against a man in the prime of his career, not some 43 year old magazine champion. It just beats me how can a fake box for **** hype job like Joe Calzaghe, who will probably not fight again in the states, can grab the number #2 p4p spot and a legend like Mosley can't??? This is what very wrong with boxing, we tend to put crap ahead of real talent based on popularity.
    My top 6 p4p list:
    1) Manny Pacquiao
    2) Shane Mosley
    3) Manuel Marquez
    4) David Haye
    5) Joe Calzaghe
    6) Chad Dawson

    I agree David Haye should be in the top 5.

      Not sure about his chin but that's for what he accomplished at cruiserweight mostly, he deserves it for a long time now. The only reason he's not in the "official" rankings (for all they're worth) is because he wasn't boxing on HBO.

            How can you put Chad Dawson in your top 5. His best wins are over a old Tarver, old Glen Johnson and a weight drained Adamak. I know these are still decent wins, but they don't compared to the resume of Israel Vasquez, Rafael Marquez, Bernard Hopkins and Ivan Calderon. You can't just take into account skill, you also have to look at how much the fighter has being tested by quality opponents.

              Haye is so underrated. The difference in class between him and his opponents is just staggering.

              When he fights next at Heavyweight you will see - the speed and power is devastating.

                    Margarito is one dimensional and tailor made for a boxer like Shane, that's why he's been out-boxed so many times in his career. Shane should be ranked about #10 P4P. 1 win over an overrated, cheating fighter doesn't get you to the top of the P4P list.
