Agree with you with the overall sentiment over P4P lists. Got to thank the RJJ era for that. It's turned into another excuse for not fighting the best fighters in your own weight class while squeezing out maximum credit. Simply nothing more than a way to nuthug your favorite fighters even more, or fantasy boxing.

These P4P List really are ******. I mean seriously, what are you really ranking? A popularity contest? Who really gives a **** when really none of them could ever fight one another . It's nothing more than fantasyland. Let's have one ranking per division then it means something. There nothing to even debate about who's who in P4P! I'm interested in reality , but for those that want to post their well thought out, personal P4P list is juvenile at best. That's like saying, okay, here's MY all time P4P list:
1) Muhammad Ali
2) Ray Robinson
3) Ray Leonard
4) Marvin Hagler
5) Mike Tyson
6) Julio Cesar Chavez
7) Evander Holyfield
8) Salvador Sanchez
9) Joe Louis
10) Alexis Arguello
11) George Foreman
12) Roberto Duran
13) Tommy Hearns
14) Joe Frazier
15) Larry Holmes
Wow! Neat-o! Now what??? Is someone going to argue with how could I possibly have Tyson ranked ahead of Alexis Arguello?!!? How could I have Chavez ahead of George Foreman??? LOL!!! It's ******. Just calling it "Your Favorite Fighters of All Time", is more credible than this hokie P4P list.Comment

It did come out of nowhere, but I simply agreed with his overall point - it wasn't too hard to figure out.Comment

Well said. RJJ actually had in his HBO contract that only he chooses his opponents; the network nor any other promoter determined that. That's why Roy had so many tomato cans he hand pick. Played a basketball game the day of the fight. Had a rap concert before he climbed into the ring. Roy was Floyd Mayweather before Floyd was Floyd.Comment

Anyone who expected Roy to go overseas to fight him were delusional. Let's not forget Roy also moved up 25 pounds and won the heavy weight title as well.
Floyd makes guys come down in weight in divisions he holds belts in and has fought numerous times previously. He's also avoided the only guy in his division that had a very legitimate chance of beating him for the last 5 years. Roy fought some bums for sure but he was no Floyd Mayweather....Comment
