Unlike Sergio, Floyd is not having impressive wins over prime opponents

    Floyd Mayweather, with his dull decision over a past-prime Shane Mosley, should not be ranked #2 P4P. Mosley went on to have a draw with Sergio Mora.

    Now, I agree with Pacquiao being #1.

    But Martinez and perhaps several others should be ranked ahead of the ridiculously overrated Floyd, who now fights on average once a year against old opponents.

    What do you think?
    Spot on Tunney, he should have to put in the work to keep his spot especially when other guys are accumulating impressive wins while he does nothing.

        Old and shot Mosley > Prime Margarito. I do think Sergio Martinez should be #2 ahead of Floyd, he's close to #1 imo - he fought for the middleweight championship and Paul Williams who is a p4p opponent while not demanding any catch weight bs. That's better than Clottey and Marg(LOL), maybe Martinez needs to seal one more great victory to seal the #1 spot depending on who Pac fights next.

            If you look closely he is fighting only once a yr. That is why he is considered inactive. Once in 2009 and another one in 2010.

                Sergio Martinez is p4p #1 to me....he beat Pavlik and Williams without any concessions from his part. Both were ranked in the top 10 P4P when he beat them.

                Manny Pacquaio is number 2 simply because unlike Sergio, he looks for every advantage to win before a fight. He fights mainly opponents coming off a loss and has them fighting at a weight benefitting him.

                Floyd Maywether shouldn’t be ranked at all if he continuous to fight once a year. An active Mayweather is p4p #1 but he's on vacation so why is he ranked in any list?

                    A "draw" with Cintron (a fight he clearly won by KO in rnd 8)
                    A loss to Williams(fight of the year, could've gone either way. didnt he take the fight on 10 days notice?)
                    A win over undisputed middleweight champ Pavlik
                    A KO win, revenge match over PWill

                    to me this is more impressive than Pac fighting either Clottey or Margarito. Did you even watch his last 4 fights? or you just looked at the record?

                      A case could be made that he moves up to spot 2, but saying that he moves to #1 makes no sense, Pacmans streak of wins, over elite fighters is unseen in this decade - and the way he has done it - No sweat.
