should mayweather continue to be ranked in the top P4P in 2011?

Marble to me i think Pound for pound is flawed because when your bigger your style would be different. I mean look at Wlad then look at Pac, if Pac was Wlad size think he fight differently. Only reason they came out with pound for pound is because they wanted to rank Robinson best fighter in the world. Which they could not do with out pound for pound because heavyweights would kill Robinson.

The p4p concept pre-dates Ray Robinson by at least twenty years. The term was applied to Tony Canzoneri and for all I know was applied to others earlier.

The assumption behind p4p is that you're wrong The assumption says if Manny was a heavy he'd be a lightning fast, enormously athletic, undersized heavyweight and that he could fight that style at say 210. Of course that assumption is, ahem, well, uh, questionable shall we say?

Was it Canzoneri or Jimmy McLarnin? I heard it was McLarnin. Admittedly, I've absorbed a number of shots over the years that could potentially compromise my memory.
