At the risk of continuing this why do you feel Caballero is a more deserving P4P entry than Calderon?
I've never questioned Calderons right to be on the list only that he doesnt deserve to be abover Paul Williams on recent performances.

Baldomir, Diaz, Witter and Bunema have indeed held portions of the world tite but beating them wouldn't make anybody p4p (except Martinez in the eyes of Kellerman).

THAT'S the difference. If Baldomir was a 110 lber and he was just a name you'd give Calderon or Cazares big props for beating him whereas a win over him from Floyd or Williams would be met only with criticism for taking the fight in the first place.

The high profile weight classes are much more well known to us so we feel we can discredit any guy's wins.

But when Nonito Donaire or Huge Cazaires line up against some part timer with a 6-3 record and get taken the distance it's because the 6-3 guy was actually world class.

It's fucking retarded.
