vitali klitschko should be the real #1 p4p

[two_guns]

what do you think?

[The Hammer]

He certainly should be in the top ten, ahead of someone like Caballero.

But not p4p #1 or #2, those spots are taken by Pacquiao and Mayweather.

[Crazylegs77]

Not until he beats Marquez

Yes they can. They just have to fight good competition. Ali and Tyson were rated top pound for pound.
