I also regard Evander Holyfield as the WBA heavyweight world champ.
My opinon doesn't mean much to the WBA though unfortunately.
Again, that doesn't have anything to do with the argument.
Yes it does seeing as the Ring techinically 'owns' the p4p rankings at least as far as legitimacy is concerned.
If the Ring recognises Pacquiao as p4p number 1 in the world then Michael Buffer, the HBO crew, the Showtime announcers, all the promoters and everyone within boxing will all refer to him as 'P4P the greatest fighter in the world today'.
Nobody will claim that with Marquez because according to the Ring he's not.
So it's essentially the same, I think Holyfield beat Valuev and is the WBA champ, but the WBA are the guys whose opinion matters and they say Valuev.........
You are bringing in layers of complication for no reason here.
JT made a thread stating "JMM is p4p #1" and since JT is not a spokesperson for The Ring we can safely assume this means his own list.
And since we can safely assume it is his own list, in your words "he can have whoever he wants at number 1".
For every story told that divides us, I believe there are a thousand untold that unite us.
