        It is a good tool to gauge where most media experts thought Manny was at the time of the fight. Was Manny past prime-absolutely.

        Did these same people think he was he at the level you suggested in your post-no. The fact he was still being ranked on the p4p list shows where they thought Manny was. No more, no less.

          Ottke never used PEDs and hid them with saline. He gets my vote.

            Well Hopkins was ranked in the top 5 p4p and was the best LHW in the world when Sir Joseph took his **** ******ity in Vegas yet you still claimed he was 1/50th of a fighter.....

No one would seriously vote for ottke. People would vote for Marciano because people revere heavyweights. Voting for rios is hating, though. I'll give you that.
              Shouldn't Ottke win the poll? Because he'd likely beat Floyd if they fought.

                Like 99 % of the people with eyeballs and only half a brain Know Bradly lost.
                I'd say more like 50% thought Floyd lost.

                Whereas 99% thought Bradley lost.

                That's the difference.

                    I didn't suggest where I thought manny was. You said Hopkins was 1/50th of himself. I argued he was still very successful, at a high level, before and after the joe fight. So if he's 1/50th, what does that make pac who was beating algierie, Bradley and getting knocked out? You used that number not me.

                      Fair point. Dirk made a good point as well regarding that number. I shouldn't have gone so low. I still thought it was a good win and said that to BrometheusBob.
