Should Pongsaklek Wonjongkam in the Top 10 P4P?

[IronDanHamza]

I think he got on the list when he beat Koki Kameda and moved up once Dawson and Calderon lost and when Mosley had his draw with Mora and got demoted.

Ahhh ok i was pretty sure he wasn't on there in 2009. I havn't purchased a Ring Magazine in 2010 and i guess I must have missed it when i skim the website from time to time.

That's cool they have him in their top 10, still messed up it took until this year IMO but hell atleast he is in there now, I can't be mad at that.

[IronDanHamza]

Didn't he fight Koki in Japan and also his arch-rival Naito in Japan(the last couple fights) or am I mistaken?

Yes both of those fights were in Japan.

HOF'er?????

I think he's pretty much borderline, but it's not really for me to decide.

I think if he can beat Sosa, and other guys he's beaten in recent years (Kameda, Miranda) carry on and keep winning, it'll only make his resume look better.

[IronDanHamza]

He's currently the Ring p4p #6, which is pretty much the standard of p4p rankings.

I know i wasn't even aware of this i havn't purcahsed the Magazine for 2010 entirely. I must have missed it when i scan the website from time to time. Although i feel its messed up it took until this year i can't be mad with them if they have him as #6 now.

IMO as of right now he definitely should be considered and by the time his career is over i certainly think so.

Wow, out of 70+ fights he may have about 10 fights outside of Thailand, last time I checked, Thailand wasn't breeding the best flyweights, that honor goes to Mexico. Like I said, when he fights Segura, then he definitely top 10.

I quoted you cuz you said "for the simple fact he has never left Thailand"

Which he actually has. If it was hyperbole by you then OK, whatever.

And, he has not only fought Thai fighters either. He has fought Japaneses fighters. And, the WBO Flyweight title holder who is from Mexico also. He has fought dudes from different countries not just Thai fighters.

Fine if needs to prove it to you by fighting Segura, then fine OK. But, the point is he has fought out of Thailand, and has fought good fighters from other countries.

Cool, I knew you guys were being sarcastic, in my personal opinion I wouldn't put him in the p4p race. I respect the fact that he has 70+ wins, but I don't like most of his opponents.

Not that pound for pound matters and he is a very good fighter, but him being at six is way too high. His resume really isn't that good and has got better with his final years. Even then, a clear win over Koki Kameda and a majority decision in his last title defense don't warrant being at six in my opinion.
