3 tiers of fighters instead of p4p

I still got Chocolatito at #1. I don't feel he lost his last fight. He has the opportunity to right that wrong next month. @Spicoli Linares has rebounded well but those loses are hard to ignore. I think Mikey would spark him.

I like @erics44 idea of a ranking system, thing is with many questionable decisions it gets murky.

Unfortunately I lean to agree on Garcia v Linares showdown tomorrow. Garcia off a major rest and arguably fighting at 140+ and sharp as can be. Garcia is proven thus far the total package. Back to back losses via ko will always follow a guy no matter how much they rebound and the DeMarco loss weighs heavy. This is where p4p gets blurry for me though..I just think Linares is a far better boxer than Canelo..skillset, adversity and up until Canelo v Golovkin, Linares is just far more willing and earned 'it' back. Tremendous talent to watch.

It is tough because some people get pushed far more than others. I have never thought that Canelo was that good until recently he has impressed me a bit more. He has definitely been pushed more than he deserves though. It's because he is Mexicos only star.

Agree he is awesome to watch. I look at guys like Estrada and Caudras, both bordering P4P in my opinion if not already included. Spence and Thurman have as much claim to P4P as Canelo at this point.
