His Legacy does not contain near as many repauatable names as the guys iv included.
When he did fall from grace it was brutally by a KO and he was unable to avenge.
His career isn't done yet so i can't fully judge.
(That may sound as if it conflicts with my inclusion of PBF but Floyd has done enough already to make the list having ticked off names such as DLH, Castillo, Gatti, Corrales even Chavez.)
You say that Roy doesnt deserve to be in it but floyd does because hes beat DLH, Castillo, Gatti, Corrales and Chavez ( Don't forget this isnt JCC). Well Roy beat Hopkins in his prime Toney in his prime and then other good fighters such as mcCallum, Virgil Hill, Vinny Paz, John Ruiz (Im including this more for the size difference than anything), Montell Griffen, Clinton Woods and Reggie Johnson who at the time was regarded as one of the top men around!

Id like to state that originally i had Srl at 8 with Floyd Jr.
I thought Srl deserved pernells ranking at 6 so i switched. However i couldnt bring Floyd to six yet so i stuck him at 8 with Pernell.
I think this p4p list displays my penchant for Boxer/punchers and all action fighters, but i think its reasonably fair.
CC#187 donny really good list.
I like how you listed fighters whom you know and have seen and not some obscure fighter you've probably only have read or seen 1 highlight video of.
Good deal donny.

7) Don Flamenco... greatest french heavyweight champ
8) King Hippo... would be higher, but had a glass... belly?
9) Piston Honda... great power and technique, a little more heart and he would have been top 5
10) Glass Joe... only makes the list because, hell... there was no one else to choose from

I totally forgot about Harry Greb! I think that he fought a lot of his career blind in one eye aswell and was the only man to beat the bigger legendary Gene Tunney. only problem is I dont know who I could take out of my list to put him in.
Re: Who are the top 10 p4p fighters of all time?
Hagler ahead of Monzon NO! Pryor ahead of Duran NO!
Duran won 73 of his first 74 fights including Leonard, must be in the top 10 of any pfp list.
I'm not alone here but Salvador Sanchez!
