Yes kind of but when I talk of p4p I'm talking specifically about the Ring Magazine and as they work within boxing and are essentially part of boxing they HAVE to abide by actual fight results and not their subjective opinion of whether a fighter should have got the decision or not.

If you want to say that in your opinion JM Marquez is p4p number 1 in the world according to your rankings, or Saddo's conduct a poll to find a top 10 and they put him at number 1 then that is all fine and dandy.

But the Ring magazine is the official p4p list and they cannot (and clearly would not) elevate a fighter above another he just lost to becuase in their subjective opinion they preferred his wins.

If the Ring was to do that it would lose all credibility and become just another opinion poll like everybody else's.

So in summation, Marquez number 1 in your poll or the official Saddo p4p rankings, fine, Marquez number 1 in the p4p Ring Rankings, forget it.
So your entire argument is moot since JT claimed it as his p4p list.
If its just his list then fine, he can have whoever he wants as number 1.

I also regard Evander Holyfield as the WBA heavyweight world champ.

My opinon doesn't mean much to the WBA though unfortunately.
