        Hasnt pound for pound only been around since Roy Jones Jr's reign? If I''m not mistaken the term was created to describe his tenure as champ.

          Sugar Ray Robinson was the one that coined that phrase. He called him self P4P the best fighter back in the 50's.

            I think Robinson was around during the same years in the 50's. So it would be Robinson during that time.

                ?

                Nah. P4P rankings go back further.

                Marvin Hagler was P4P #1 for four consecutive years in the early 1980s. Chavez, Whitaker, Pacquiao and Mayweather have held the title for as many as three consecutive years at maximum, if memory serves.

                    you kinda have to ask yourself...how can they be p4p for so long and never get fighter of the decade....hmmmmm
                    The children come out with their hate lol , to not fight somebody is not a duck , lots of reasons why a fight is not chosen , and concerning Floyd no matter who he fights you and the kid brigade will say he is ducking whoever it is he is not fighting , like now if he fights Canelo he is ducking Guerrero and Martinez , if he fought SM he ducking the other 2 , its been that way his whole career .

                    Now I dont go about Manny and ducking as in Raheem etc because like I said lots of things come into who an elite fighter fights , but to me a blatant duck is when you beat somebody at a lowering CW that that somebody aludes to have weakened him , and then come out and publicly state that somebody is No1 choice of opponent , then that somebody says OK but NO CW , and your hero runs for hills ,,,, thats a DUCK if ever I seen one .

                    Your fighter of the decade award may as well have came out of packet of weeties , because we all know its BS we all know the CWs ! there is an old saying with racehorses , its to beat the handicapper , in other words you should be carrying more weight and flew under the radar of the handicapper , what Manny done to boxing with his run of catch weights was beat the handicapper , he hoodwinked boxing and the general media , in the end it backfired on him because he brought JMM up with Roach saying it should slow him , it did a little but he was strong not weakened and that is the difference in a boxer going up or down .

                    When the draining CWs stopped first Mosley , JMM , Bradley and to be now pole axed by JMM , for Manny the more time and fights without those draining CWs the more fake those CW wins will become , both sides of the CWS are nowhere near the superman the CWs portrayed , I wonder why LOL .

                      Let me educuate on p4p history.

                      P4P was orginally created because the Heavyweight Division took all the glamour and all the attention.

                      So a phrase p4p was created to appease and reward the lower weight classes, hence why a heavyweight is rarely p4p king. Ironically now it's the heavyweights who need more attention.
