    that's 5 top 10 guys in 8 fights.

    your numbers are off. i don't know where you get your stats. i'm going off of ring magazine.

    plus kinda unfair to floyd to count the last 5 years when he hasn't fought since 2007.
    Were my numbers WAYY off? If it was i apologize, don't want to piss off any mosley, pacman or floyd fans.

      ring magazine is better. not that they're right but because it's a bunch of writers who follow the sport.

      org rankings are bs. a champ for one org will not be ranked by another org.

        i think you will.

        pac has probably the best resume the last few years.

        floyd was fighting a lot of top guys before that.

        shane's resume is one of the best ever.

            When the Ring magazine was publicly owned, it was more credible and accurate as to who the Top Ten fighters were P4P, but ever since DLH bought out the magazine, the Top Ten are skewed and many boxing analysts don't go too much off the Ring P4P, even though technically it is the "official" P4P rankings. So in a way The Ring is what you should go off of in terms of P4P rankings, but it may not be entirely accurate. Hope this helps!

              what the hell are you talking about?

              ring magazine does not have floyd ranked at all.

              you're confused.

                i think ring is fine.

                no more biased than anyone else.

                oscar owning them doesn't change much.

Wasn't pacman the one that said that 145 was okay because he did not want a boxer going into ring drained and hurting himself? Pacman just wants to take EVERY advantage away from Cotto and that is his right but now i'm really getting fed up with fight and prefer if cotto fights mosley or margarito or berto or whoever. I'm drained from all this BS. Also, cotto needs to quit top rank when his contract is up. Arum does not have your best interest. He does not care if cotto fought the day after the clottey fight. I think after the last 2-3 yrs that cotto needs to take a break and he'll be more dangerous in 2010. Cotto has been with more top 10 fighters than probably anyone in boxing. He has been in wars while others have been in battles.
                  Old news.. Paq has already agreed at 145..
