has there ever been a p4p #1 who fights unranked contenders the whole time?

[Larry the boss]

Unranked contenders? HUh? Mosley is still considered a top five Welterweight. Clottey and Cotto easily the same (hell, Cotto was still top 3 at Welter).

Mayweather has fought nothing but top ten fighters, outside Bruseles and the older Sharmba, over the last ten years or so unless fighting someone moving up. When he's done that, it's been to face a marginal top ten guy at 30 (N'Dou) and two reigning lineal World Champs (135- Marquez; 140 - Hatton).

Saying they could fight someone else tougher than they have on occasion is fine. To say either is not fighting top ten guys, as the thread starter and one respondent did, is ******. I know that's the point on a lot of these threads but impressionable minds can read this horesh*& and actually think its true.

cause i really cant count floyd since he isnt fighting

You could never say Floyd ducked and dodged. He was calling out De la Hoya and Mosley at the peaks of their careers and he was a LW. When he got his crack at them he spanked them both. The only fight that maybe could have happened was a fight eith Cotto but it wasnt a must have fight.

you missed april fools by 2 days!

But, he's still ranked there.

So he's not top 3, he's #4.

since floyd became the number 1/1a p4p guy he's fought 3 out of 7 opponents who weren't ranked in the division he fought them. he also fought judah coming off a loss to a journeyman and baldomir. very impressive p4p resume indeed.

floyd was signed to fight judah before judah loss and baldo was the WW and lineal champ.

you lose

yeah floyd was signed to fight judah but then judah lost to a journeyman. i guess losing to a journeyman doesn't change anything?

if you remember(which you don't) the floyd-judah contract was only legit if judah beat baldomir. he did not so the contract was voided. floyd being the nice guy that he was redid the contract so he would get more money and the fight was reborn! yay!

Yea it wasn't signed, it was just agreed on it. Floyd could have fought somebody else. He didn't have to go through the Judah fight. Hence why Floyd was looking for a potential Spinks fight after Judah lost.
