My problem with current p4p lists is the inclusion of Bernard Hopkins. Bernard, at this point, better than Sergio Martinez and Chad Dawson p4p? That's a travesty and the reason the p4p lists have no credibility to me anymore.
"The day I clipped the Butterfly's wings."
I think B Hop deserves to be above them both for now. He has won his last three fights including taking Kelly Pavlik's undefeated record.
I don't see how a fighter can be dropped whilst he's still winning. Martinez is 1-1-1 in his last 3 fights, regardless of you being able to make a case for him winning all three.
Dawson is doing well but has yet to face a real defining opponent. Both absolutely deserve to be on the p4p rankings but you can't knock B Hop down just because you 'think' the other guys are better.
P4P rankings are subjective, but only in accordance with strict criteria. B Hop's resume speaks for itself.
What criteria? Like I said, I believe p4p to be the best fighters in the world regardless of what they've done in the ring. It's more of a judge on talent then actual accomplishments, I leave that to 'greatest' lists. Martinez is 1-1-1 and could very wello be 3-0, the fact that he has the draw is a TRAVESTY. If you look at B Hop in the ring and then Martinez in the ring, who is the better more talented fighter? It's not even close it's Martinez.
If you limit that criteria to 'has won a title' like I did, then you get a more fair criteria and you judge actual p4p talent rather then stacking accomplishments against each other.
I think that's a ridiculous way to judge the rankings. It's no longer a rankings list but a predictions list.
Why not have Gamboa, Kell Brook, Devon Alexander all in the top 10? Hell I reckon that cashflow is going to be special in another 15 years or so....
Of course you have to take into account acomplishments, otherwise what is the point of acomplishments?

I really wouldn't argue with most opinions when coming to the rankings. Like everyone i'd have floyd and pac at the top in either order. Easy to only remember the last fight we see but you can't really go wrong either way without either of them loosing or fighting each other.
Hidden Content Click clack ! Give up the purse.........or yetti will find you.
No big quarrells with the list, but like most I don't think haye belongs anywhere near top 10. The fact that he is ranked above a guy like Chris John is mind boggling to me.
