    Default Wladimir cracks the POUND FOR POUND Ratings

    From The Ring

    A number of other candidates, including Ivan Calderon and Tim Bradley, were considered to fill [Chad Dawson's]vacancy but in the end, Wladimir Klitschko’s domination of the heavyweight division, plus his considerable boxing skills and ability to stop his opponents earned him the slot.”

    All the pound-for-pound rated fighters ranked No. 7 and below last week advanced one spot each, creating the opening at No. 10 that was filled by Kitschko (54-3, 48 KOs).

    The 34-year-old world heavyweight champion has won 12 consecutive bouts since his last loss, which took place in April of 2004. During that stretch, Klitschko defeated seven RING-rated heavyweight contenders.

    absolutly....wlad is responsible for making himself the best, not the quality of his crappy opponets. If he can beat you with nothing more than a jab then that's the fault of the guys he fights.

    I find it hard to believe many of the 9 people above him have achieved more.

    It's long overdue, Wlad has been the best HW since 2005, all but demolishing his opponents.

    The guy may not have a fan friendly style but he is the man at HW.

    It's stupid to rank him P4P. He holds a significant size advantage over virtually everyone he fights.

    Just look at Marquez-Mayweather to see what happens when two GREAT fighters meet with an unfair size advantage in effect.

    Wlad is a talented big man. He is not an exceptional boxing talent. He would be average without the size advantage.

    Good for him...HOWEVER I don't put heavyweights in P4P ratings so I disagree with him being in that group.
