Th reason pound for pound was made you freaking idiot because a strawweight champ to cruiserwight would have little chance or next to never chance against heavyweight champ. So they made pound for pound which means if they are on the same size, this fighter would be better. Because the reality is, would someone like Hopkins have a chance against Lewis, or would Ricardo Lopez can beat Tyson. It's unrealistic so pound for pound was made.
A who beats who ranking, regardless of size. In other words, if everyone was the same size who would win, cant you read??
Your cutting out heavys, they should be in P4P too.

Exceptional heavyweights or light heavyweights who have moved up and succeded in the heavyweight division can be considered p4p greats. However, most great p4p guys have taken the challenge to move up in weight, and beat guys who were naturally bigger and stronger than them. Duran, Robinson, Langford, Greb are all examples of guys who appear atop most p4p lists. Hopkins can't be mentioned in the same breath as any of them. Hopkins has made a career of feasting on blown up welterweights. Now the word is he will take on Winky Wright. lol, now theres a real surprise.

he has a point though man. Heavyweights are not included in the P4P lists.....because they are the supreme weight. This was created in order to measure a smaller fighter's talent compared to a heavyweight.
for instance:
John Ruiz would knock Kostya Tszyu out in one round. Who is the "better fighter" though?
A smaller man stands no chance against the bigger man....hence the ratings system.
So if you don't think Hagler and Monzon should not be mention among them then that's your opinion. Greb is really a rarity. He pounded Dempsey when they were sparring and he was the only one that beat Tunney. In my opinion, he is the greatest middleweight ever.

Heavy's are generally **** so they dont normally make the grade, but P4P just means that if everyone was the same weight who would win.
So if Ali was the same size a Leonard, who would win, etc.
You cant cut out heavy because in reality they are bigger than everyone else, P4P is about fighters being the same size.
Heavyweights are not supreme anyway, Toney and Jones have proved that.

I agree Greb is the greatest Middleweight ever. Monzon and Hagler are both top 5. But neither of them is in the top 20 p4p.
Ha ha ha I'm just messing around with these British idiots. Like the nitwit Elviel, he actually think only AMerica cared about baseball. Little this idot know that in Cuba, this is their nation passion, what about all the baseball academy in Dominican Republic, the Puerto Rico, in Taiwan which is baseball is the most popula sport, in Japan whre Ichiro is the most popular athlete. Just because this idiot see a lot of cricket in Europe and not baseball.
First of,I must say BHOP is ****in nuts. He's 40 yr old and he still has huge chance to beat any top dawgs right now.
Unlike Roy Jones, Trinidad and (Thomas ****in Hearns) who I think should stay retire, I think Hopkins should stay in ta game. He's still capable of bringing good match ups in ta division.
That being said, I WANT A WINKY MATCH UP! He'll do way betta than Tito and we might even see WINKY lose fo ta first time in 6 years. I doubt it though. Winky would beat BHop!
