whats more prestigious P4P#1 or Heavyweight champion of the world?

p4p#1 for me
you are the best of the best, not the best of the available as is the case when you only look at 1 single division.

[victorythagr8]

Out of the top 10 in the GOAT list....how many are Heavyweights.


Also nobody in their right mind would put Wlad over Pacquaio or even floyd in the Alltime great list.

With that said, though. The Heavyweight Champion would crush you, regardless.

yep, thats probably not debatable, unless you are Manny Pacquiao, then anything is possible! lol

i would be happy being a small p4p#1 fighter then being the HW champ. the public marvel at a big HW champ, but you can be sure all the p4p's peers will marvel him probably more than he does them.

Yeah that's got to be true.

I also think other combat sports have taken away about from the Heavyweight Champ. Because, it was all about that: 'This is the man - the toughest, the biggest, the strongest, the hardest. Now there is MMA and they have their own Heavyweight Champ in a different sport - but still a combat sport. I think that might dilute it a little, MMA being popular.

Being both shouldnt be out of the realm of possibility


when you have a weak division and two dominant champions who happen to be brothers it's outside the realm of possibility

Best fighter on the planet, or best at beating a bunch of overweight no-punchers...

Ye I'll take Pacmans title.

without any order

Joe louis
Ali
Dempsey
jack johnson
and Gene tunney

all HW champions (tunney did most of his work at lhw but he gets most credit for defeating jack dempsey) some would consider in the top ten in terms of "Greatness"


it's hard to imagine now with the division being so weak and having virtually no following in the states, but the HW championship of the world used to be the most covet achievement in sport
and the champ was the world's most popular athlete

It depends on how strong the heavyweight division is, which is piss poor at the moment. So p4p title takes it now.

I think Ali was ahead of Duran in the p4p rankings in the 70's.
