    he should be IMO. some limitations were brought to light, and fighters naturally go down a couple rungs of the ladder after a loss

    he gets props for daring to be great but he was outmatched in every sense against Agbeko last night. it's unfortunate because he was on a great high after beating Kirillov, Mijares and Arce back to back but it is what it is

      With the way he fights he is open to counters all day. In his last fight the guy he was fighting looked like crap the way he was diving in with punches but somehow was still landing

        Larry, you're cool to have on these forums, but just about everything you post on here I never agree with. I don't know why. I've never thought Vic was a P4P caliber fighter. And last night confirmed it. Agbeko is tough, and Vic deserves credit for taking a risk. But that doesn't eliminate his mediocre skills.

            he deserved to be there after his great run before losing last night

            you can't not have P4P skills and beat Mijares and Arce

              The ratings are always subjective. I mean look at the Cotto/Clottey fight. Cotto guts out a tough win against a top fighter and gets dropped 2 spots. P4P rankings these days have to be taken with a grain of salt. They are all skewed.

                its like fans get made at safety first fighters..then when a fighter goes balls out he gets bashed....vic is a stand up guy and takes risk and is exciting and wins.....

                  I like Vic, I'll still watch him fight, hopefully he keeps fighting meaningful fights. I just hate how it is now after a loss. **** aint the end of the world.

                    He was in the bottom half and with a loss he is taken out. I would like to know the fighters who have remained after losses.
