is it actually possible for a heavyweight to ever be the p4p #1??

[generalbulldog]

Wasn't Mike Tyson P4P #1 right after he knocked out Spinks ?

Correct. In fact he was ranked #1 p4p in '87, '88, and '89 by Ring Magazine. Before that it was Marvin Hagler in '83, '84, '85, '86.

That's a great list of fighters.... It's amazing that Hagler dominated the p4p ratings in the 80's with all those mazing fighters. Just makes me respect him all the more.



I think that If p4p ratings were around in the 60's Muhammad Ali would be no.1 for at least 4 years of his career.
