    I think I will use Boxrec's p4p rankings over Ring's

    I think Boxrec's p4p rankings are much better than Ring's rankings. I don't think its perfect but at the same time it is not as openly biased towards certain fighters like Ring's is.....here are both of their rankings below. Its all just opinion really but make your own judgments and feel free to list your own top 10 p4p.

    That's a pretty terrible list.

        Ring's is just too awful....I mean Izzy and Rafa? They have been way too inactive and why should Caballero be on there at all?

          This is true. Izzy, Rafa and Cabellero have no right to be on there since the first two been inactive and Cabellero hasn't done anything special. But JMM at 10? PWilliams 15? Donaire at 19? Cotto and Calderon at 35 and 34. I don't know how they work it out, but I think that's even worse. I reckon 90% of the users on here probably have a better P4P list than Ring and Boxrec though whats yours?

              I agree with BoxRecs top 4 to an extent.

                The Ring has some questionable names on their list, but boxrec? You can't take there list seriously.

                Mosley above Pac?
                Froch number 11?
                Cotto 35th?

                lol

                    They use some weird points system. It doesn't work very well.
