That's why I don't have a P4P list. I'm not aware enough of the fighters below 130 to put a SMW above them. I know the guys I like and I leave it at that. I have an idea of guys who should be on a P4P list, but I know if I made one I'd have to cut most of them because there would be way more than ten.

completely agree

People are always so eager to give credit to the smaller fighter because he throws more punches, is much quicker and able to get into wars that perhaps 2 heavyweights wouldnt be able to get into due to the fact they both hit so hard.

Though while i agree on your theory i still believe it is relatively possible to calculate who are the best P4P fighters in the world.

I hadnt seen Wlad for a good while before the Ibraghimov fight. After seeing that performance i completely wrote off Wlad and to be perfectly honest believe the jury is still well and truly out on him.

Would pavlik of pawed his jab for 12rounds against an inferior fighter he knew if he really took a chance could have him out of there at any time. Same goes for pacquiao, hatton and cotto.

Whenever you see Wlad you just get the sense he is going through the motions and that just is not good enough for a man who has the talent and the ability to finally bring some respect back to the heavyweight division.
