    By actual accomplishments in the ring I voted for Froch. Price, Burns and Brook all have potential.

        Not many people are swinging that way.

        Froch is way ahead.

            frank warren talked about this a few weeks ago when he said burns was the number 1 british fighter, the reason because when froch stepped up he got beat vs ward. i would disagree and say froch got beat by a top 3 p4p fighter and burns has never faced the level of fighter that froch has

              Is Haye an active boxer? Personally I dont think Haye should be in any rankings, I also dont think Mayweather should be part of any rankings.

              Rankings should be for boxer who are active and fighting regularly, not once a year or once every 2 years.
              I find them similar in how they treat boxing.

              Anyway, Froch is the obvious answer. You can make a case for someone like Burns but Froch's competition sets him apart.

                David Haye (fast, slick and knock out guys much bigger than himself) is the best P4P but Froch has the better resume.

                  Well Ruiz and Chisora were shorter guys, Wlad and Valuev took him 12 so I can only assume you are talking about Audley?

                  Honestly, Haye's a good boxer but he's too inactive and does not take enough risks.

                  You'd struggle to find anyone with Haye on their PFP top 10 list, but here and there you'll see even American posters with Froch on there from 8-10

                    So Ruiz and Chisora weighed less than Haye? WRONG. They were both at least 30 pounds heavier. Imagine how Froch would do against a top 10 cruiserweight or one of the smaller heavyweights? Like I said Froch has the better resume in terms of name but Haye is the better P4P fighter. Many people might put Froch ahead in a P4P ranking because of his resume but that doesn't mean he is a better P4P fighter.

                      But this is a bait thread and I think we all know why.
