    I mean that Marquez did just brutalize Pacquiao. Bradley deserves to be on the list over some of the guys that are on there, the reason he isn't is because he looks like he has lost a step or 10 in his last few even when he is winning.

      He thoroughly beat a young undefeated JWW champ. I wouldnt call that nothing, he shouldve got the nod over Chavez, & losing to Pac shouldnt get you thrown off the p4p rankings, hell not getting your @$$ handed to you by Pac should get you ranked by the ring...

          He takes NO breaks. His last break was Casamayor.

          He's been fighting world class fighters nonstop just like Floyd/Manny.

          He's just so unoriginal, but got so much hustle, he forced his way into P4P status.

          Larry, Dirk, you two are morons
          His last fight was Jessie Vargas

          A P4P calibre fighter should consider Jessie Vargas a "break".

I think its very hard to get up for guys like Chaves, Vargas, and now Rios when you have been in the ring with hall of famers like Pacquiao and Marquez. He needs a bigger challenge. But still, other than Manny and Ward, he has the best resume of active fighters in the sport. If all around body of work is considered, he should at least be ranked 3 or 4. How does GGG, Brook, and Khan make the list and not Tim??? Yes GGG has looked dominant and very impressive, but against who??? He has never faced an opponent on the level of Marquez and Pacquiao. Hell, in all honesty, he hasn't even faced an opponent on the level of Peterson, Alexander(at his best), or Provodnikov. The p4p list by Ring used to be respectable. Now it seems they have an agenda.
            I agree, I think Bradley has a better resume than Brook, TC, & GGG and is way more active than Rigondeaux. & Im a Ward fan but I think he should at least fight once more to be put back on the p4p list.

                But I guess Frankie Gavin and Jo Jo Dan clearly get you on the rankings.

                  I don't think Kell Brook should be in the P4P Top 10 either.

                  It's a subjective ranking system, I don't get why dudes get all worked up as if its some official list. Put Bradley number 1 if you feel like it, it holds about as much weight as Ring Mag's list.

                    Jessie Vargas is not a great win at all man...certainly not a p4p worthy win nor in Chaves....

                      He's beaten who politics allow.

                      Unless he beats Khan Or Brook or wins @ 154, he'll stay between 5-10 P4P.

                      Vargas & Chaves are good wins. Larry, remember, not everybody is an ATG like Floyd or Manny.

                      Where Alberto & Guerrero & Rios & Algieri are good wins for Bradley, they're meh for Floyd or Manny. Doesn't enhance their legacy. There are levels, Larry.

                      Wlad fought & beat a D-level Leapei. He's considered P4P though. I'll drop fighters for bad fights (dropped Wlad for that, dropped Lara from like 15th to 30th JUST for fighting F level Delvin).
