WHAT!!!!!!!!!! Why is JLC and hatton not on the list??????? What has Margarito ever done to be there name just one worhty oponent that he has defeated!!!
Re: RING MAGAZINE'S POUND FOR POUND #1
Theres noway Arce has fought better compition @ fly than Darchinyan, Alvarez was the best guy & he was shot. Darchinyan took the title of a still solid Pacheco, & completely destroyed Sikali. If Wonjongkam, Arce or Parra would step up to the plate Vic would prove himself the most dominate fighter @ flyweight

I thought Calzaghe just beat the guy that you said was gonna take over the world ???
Bet ya bottom dollar if Lacy had've beaten JC youd've had him up there.
I actually don't think JC should be that high, but you just make me laff sometimes
Re: RING MAGAZINE'S POUND FOR POUND #1
JLC should`nt even be on the list any fighter who dose not make weight twice in two fights should also be suspended. He is giving boxing a bad name. You can`t say he beat Corrales cause he did not make weight.

in a sense you could say that but corrales would have put on alot of weight after the weigh in and jlc would have put on more so i dont think its that much of a factor.jlc is a very good fighter imo.
Re: RING MAGAZINE'S POUND FOR POUND #1
I never said he wasn`t a good fighter. He is! However, it angers me to see a fighter of his ability not to make weight in the most important fight of his life.

that list sucks...
who has joe.c beaten p4p to get 4th place...
who has floyd beaten p4p to get 1st just cause he looks good against beaten fighters already (gatti, mitchell zab) who all were not on the list of p4p while he beat them so was castillo and corrales when he beat them...
pac beat barrera when mab was top 3...and he beat morales when he was top 10 atleast...
PAC IS THE REAL P4P KING...
floyd is a fraud untill he beats guys listed p4p top 10...just like pac has done...so what if his undeafeated thiers so many other fighters undeafeated...but any one can argue the first figth with castillo could of gone either way and the fight with zab he didn't look so good he got outbox untill zab got too tired...you got to be a fool to fall for floyds b.s of p4p...
pac has came from what 106 all the way to 130 and all his recent oppenents are taller and physically bigger...but still he drop thier as$es down...
actually the only reason he got spot 1 in the first place was because of ROY JONES LOSING AND BHOP LOSING...but floyd was looking good against B fighters then so he got spot 1...but now what pac and winky has been doing...floyd tops up spot 3 only...I"m not hating but facts are facts...damn I can't believe how so many fans are still a product of the media...open your eyes fans and ears think you'll get this shyt too...

:coolclick: Agreed on everything you said Big H...cept for Calzaghe's place in it all.
Calzaghe dominated his division just like Hopkins did & he's beaten some very game (but not name) fighters.

Click back m8 - I would def have JC top 10, just not as high as 4.
Re: RING MAGAZINE'S POUND FOR POUND #1

Whetther you like it or not, he has lost 2 of his last 3. The guy he just beat probably wasn't top 10 p4p. And he's retired. How does he even crack the top 10?
Hopkins at 41 years old dominated a top 10 guy and universially recognized best LH weight in the world. That is why. And we all know he beat Jermain Taylor too, just some of us don't want to admit it. At 41, dominating the best guy 2 divisions above you is better than PBF's close but clear win over Zab Judah, who was not a top 10 p4p guy at the time.

nope, not until darch gets past arce he is.
You mean when arce gets some balls. Vic has been calling him out for ages and arce never mentions him. Ever since arce beat hussein the second time, vic has been calling....and arce hasnt responded. The reason for that could be that arce is a brawler and you come in against vic ready to brawl then your coming in ready to be knocked the fuck out!
anything could happen. vic could very well knock him out but i honestly think arce outworks him for a ud or catches him late in the rounds. all i'm saying is right now arce is THE man at flyweight and vic doesn't get into the p4p list until he gets past the man.
