Counter Punching 101: Mayweather would still be number 1 p4p if he hadn't retired

[Counter Punch]

P4P is imaginary. Who cares?

I do and so does everyone in this thread

This dudes and there woulda, shoulda,coulda!!!!!!

That's funny coming from a guy who said Cotto shoulda had a different trainer, and shoulda kept jabbing and boxing, and he coulda won

-The fact is that had Mayweather not retired he'd still be ranked number 1 by Ring.

-That's why he's ranked so high now. It's not just because he beat the number 2 guy who was a tune up tbh. It's because prior to retirement he was number 1.

-There was no need to "work" up the ladder when you're Mayweather Jr. He's already put in the work. The guy had been on the p4p list since 1998!! That's longer than anyone's ever been on there

Well that #2 was a lightweight, so when it comes to p4p that should have realistically downgraded him. would pavlik be p4p #1 if he beat manny?
anyways he did retire and its hard not to think that it had something to do with being in a great division with very tough competition, he doesnt retire and fights/beats those guys than he is hands down an all time great.

I'm confident he would have fought big $$ fights which means he would have been fighting popular fighters which are ranked high.

I think its nice to assume things too.

You do understand that some people think he left because he didn't want to fight Mosley, Cotto, Margarito, etc.

Some people are going to believe what they want regardless of what side of the Mayweather coin they're on.

People seem to forget that Floyd got his number one spot by default as well.

on HBO 2006 review they put PACQUIAO as number 1

at OSCAR vs FRAUD JR. press conference there would people that say to FRAUD that PACQUIAO is number 1 p4p.

Because Bernard Hopkins decided to fight someone his own size and lost? He shouldn't have been there in the first place.

We're using RING. Different lists say different things. RING is the status quo
