  1. No hate or love thread just want to see what you guys think about it.

    Is 40 year-old Vitali Klitschko worth to be placed in the Ring Mgazine Top10 P4P today?

    He is 8-0 with 6 Knockouts since his comeback in 2008.

    5 of the 8 opponents were Top10 ranked Heavyweights in the world.

    4 of the 8 opponents had more experience and fights than Klitschko himself.

    His last 8 opponents combined win/lose record : 280 wins and 10 losses
    (5 losses coming by Briggs)

    The 2 fights that gone the distance he arguably won every round. Scorecards 120-108.


    Defeating 3 unbeaten fighters since that in Arreola, Johnson and Solis.

    2 former or actual Heavyweight champions in Peter and Briggs.

    2 former Cruiserweight Champions in Gomez and Adamek.

    To me it could be argued both brothers could be in the top 10 P4P. Rare few fighters dominate fights like these guys do, like them or not.

    Yeah, I have Khan just outside of the top 10 and unlike The Ring, I still have Bradley just slight ahead of Khan at Jr.WW. Cotto also deserves to be in the top 10. Prior to the Pac fight, he was ranked within the top 10. His loss to the #1 P4P may have gotten him outside of the top 10, but by becoming the #1 JMW, he deserves to get back in.

    Well if you're going to put Wlad in you have to have Vitali above him.
