    They do give us a broad general feel for the most prominent and current fighters (?).maybe just not the most accurate reflection of "best fighter" & Thats where it gets full of spotty definitions.It really can be a mind melt.Has to be a complete balance of Competition faced,consitancy,and all around skillset I suppose.By definition,Skillset should be at the top but it gets blurry.

    I agree, but this is also where I believe promoter(s) get it wrong! If they concentrated on the truth, boxing would be far better off. The integrity of the sport gets to the point where people look at it with the same creditability as Professional Wrestling. The only place P4P rankings can truly be accepted is when a fighter is part of history or he is so far set above the rest he is a living legend. Greed is just too powerful and while I agree that the sport needs mega fights I also believe the sport would have an even greater following if it were more transparent.
