~No Ceilings Re-Vised P4P List: 8-16-10.~

[B.U.R.N.E.R]

1. Manny Pacquiao: He moves up to Number 1 with Floyds inactivity. His 2010 has been a joke so far with Clottey and Marg. He'll be out of this spot when Floyd announces his next fight.

2. Floyd Mayweather: Dropped down due to inactivity. Was off to a great start by being the fighter with boxing's highest rated win by beating Lineal Chap P4P Number 3 Mosley but were now waiting for his next fight.

3. Paul Williams: Been at 3 for a while now. Dawson getting his ass beat and embarrassed did nothing to move him out this spot.

4. Juan Manuel Marquez: Getting old and still whooping ass. His fight was Diaz was surprisingly good. Hes now about to fight Katsidis which is MUCH better than fighting Morales or Hatton. He gets his spot back at 4.

5. Sergio Martinez: Still at 5. I was tempted to put him at 4 over JMM. Has a fight with Paul Williams in November that will have big pound for pound implications. One of these guys will be P4P Number 1 when Floyd and Pac retire.

6. Andre Ward: The favorite to win Boxing's toughest gauntlet the S6. Next fight vs. Dirrell.

7. Chad Dawson: Drops way down to to losing to a fighter as bad as Pascal. Terrible loss.

8. Fernando Montiel: The best fighter in boxings best weight class. He has been on a roll this year and him beating Donaire makes him a lock to be fighter of the year.

9. Miguel Cotto: Won a title at 154 when many didnt think anything was left. He dominated that fight and earned his way back to Boxings elite category.

10. Wladmir Klitschko: I dont rank heavies ever but I would be doing Wlad a disservice by putting Lopez, Donaire, Bradley, Mosley, Hopkins or Cab on this list. So he checks in at Number 10.


Just missed the cut: ( in no particular order) Bute, Dirrell, Calderon, Poonsawat, Cab, Mosley, Bradley, Donaire, Lopez, Alexander, Gamboa, and Wonjongkam.

Dawson is out of top 10, gone completely. JMM above Williams and Martinez above Williams too.
1. Pac
2. Floyd
3. JMM
4. Martinez
5. Williams

So if Margarito beats Pac you know you need to move Williams to P4P#1 right?

I cant rank him over Williams or I have to rank Dirrell over Ward. Since I think he beat Froch, Im just going by what happened officially.

Dropping Dawson off the list completely is way to harsh. Hes just not Top 5 material. He didnt even show up and barely tried. None of my Top5 have ever one that. They maybe have lost before but they never just didnt care and showed no passion to get the win like Dawson did.

Mayweather would be P4P Number 1.

And a little after that fight we would have saw Martinez-Williams 2. The winner of that fight goes to P4P Number 2.

This doesn't make sense. I can understand this coming out after Pacquiao's fight with Margarito but as things stand Mayweather has been tested more recently than Pacquiao. For all we know Pacquiao could get his ass beaten by Margarito this November.

I know many would disagree but I'd personally rank Wlad 3rd, compared to other fighters he is really dominating his division, I know it isn't exactly up to scratch with the others but he's going out there doing what needs to be done.

I'd put Ward 4th and I would have Timmothy Bradley on the list instead of Cotto.

But we know Pac will beat Marg half to death in November. Floyd has to announce his next fight to be ranked at Number 1 again. He has promotional issues that need to be worked out.

What Adamek has done in the last 2 years > Williams, Ward, Cotto.

He'd have to fight in his next fight and perform well to be ranked no.1 again, the same way Pacquiao has to perform well in his next fight to replace him ( Assuming you rank him behind Mayweather).

You shouldn't move up the rankings based on announcing a fight and people predicting that you will do well.

I don't like the statement Mayweather moves back up to 1 "when he announces his next fight"

If he fights someone who is as bad or worse than Margarito then I think he should stay at number 2 don't you agree? Also it's a good list, I would put Bute at number 10 since I believe he is on a similar level to Ward seeing as he beat Bika, Andrade, Miranda, Zuniga and Berrio that's a list of the best of the rest at 168. Ward has beaten Miranda, Kessler and Green.

The only fighter that is significantly above any of Bute's wins is Kessler and the amount and style of wins Bute has racked up puts him close to Ward IMO.
