Or, marketing tag. In an ideal world...skills. That's it. Not number of trinkets, not beating a 'p4p' and then taking his place or entering the conversation. Skill set. It's extremely objective. The holiday Fruitcake of boxing rankings. Big, all over the place and very colorful but I don't want any thanks.
Ditto.

Urban Dictionary: P4P

LOL

In some ways its bang on. You have your pimps, top earners, hoes etc. Roach claims there are only 8 ppv fighters. 17 weight divisions or maybe 25 if one includes catch weights. Some fighters mixing it up 2 and even sometimes 3 divisions south of where they should be for a shot at glory in an extremely limited pay market. There are probably only a handful of actual pound for pound fighters out there today and yet the term is used as a blanket. I much prefer top ten fighters today. People and broadcasters alike have flipped it to p4p because it’s simpler and in so doing mocked the origin and meaning of the phrase by watering it down to simply mean the favourites of the day.


That second definition on the page also has merit lol.
