    They dont even like Floyd at the Ring, Dougie dont like him Michael Rosenthal dont like him, this is all about trying to hype Floyd/Shane, sad on their parts.

      Come to think about it, does it make sense that he is ranked above Mosley in the p4p rankings but below him in the ww rankings? Because they are the same size and fight in the same weight class if one fighter is ranked higher on one listed he should also be ranked higher on the other.

        Hopkins hasn't fought in 2009, while Shane's had an impressive win over Margarito.
        Shouldnt they have done the switch straight after Shanes win then?

          Michael Rosenthal loves Floyd.

            Floyd's P4P credentials go way beyond his welterweight credentials so to me it makes sence.

              Should Vasquez and Marquez be on there too? I love both guys but they are highly inactive.

                That was in January. They waited all this time until Mayweather came back and got into a supposed (but looked like was set up) scuffle with Mosley. Don't you think it's a bit of a coincidence.

                It's all set up imo. The scuffle, the ratings and Mayweather/Mosley probably already have an agreement to fight. They are both in it together to hype it all along with the rest of the GBP party. I don't believe this is all genuine.

                  Ok, someone explain this to me.

                  Previously the top 5 was:

                  Pac
                  JMM
                  B-Hop
                  Shane
                  Vasquez

                  NOW it is this:

                  Pac
                  Mayweather
                  Shane
                  B-Hop
                  JMM

                  Can someone explain to me how Shane Mosley has got in front of B-Hop without having even fought a fight?!
                  The Ring are just trying to hype this Mayweather-Mosley fight, their ratings are flawed.
                  you should write doug fischer, maybe he can tell you

                    I summed it up in the post I made earlier. Even though JMM is a better fighter than Margarito skill wise, it is more of an accomplishment and risk to beat the #1 Welterweight in the world. Mayweather doesn't even deserve to be over Mosley. I would have Pacquiao, Hopkins, Mosley, and Williams all ranked ahead of him. And people are saying that Golden Boy has influence over the rankings, but Mosley and Hopkins have been in there positions for the last year. It is widely known that they are getting ready to make their next move, so they deserve their spot even though they have been out of the ring for a while. But Mayweather has more than anybody else. So Mayweather stans should not complain about who is ranked below him since Mayweather is the only fighter they know about.
