    Floyd Mayweather was and Shane Mosley was ranked at number 3. Then Sergio Martinez and Paul Williams were at 154. Timothy Bradly is a p4p ranked fighter and is at 140. Then Marqeuz was crying for a fight for all that time and he was ranked in the top 10 also

    Who knew this would turn into another Pacweather thread? Both guys aren't protected, idiots. Just because they make it look easy doesn't mean they're protected. Hatton and Cotto were top 10 P4P when Pac faced them, I believe. Clottey was top 5 amongst Welterweights.

    As for the poll question, no doubt iin my mind Canelo is the most protected. While GBP has done a great job protecting him, they've really rushed Victor Ortiz. First against KO artist Maidana and then Floyd for his first title defense.

    Martinez, PW, not at WW in 2008, he fought JMM. Bradley wasn't P4P ranked in 2008, he fought mosley (although he was shot), He tried to fight Mayweather but Floyd and Arum didn't want the fight. when pac beat hatton (ring champion) at 140, and came up Mosley had a fight scheduled with Berto when Pac fought cotto, then berto pulled out due to disasters in Haiti, then mosley singed to fight with Floyd

    I don't really think Pac is protected, I just saw floyd in the thread and thought, **** why not? :lol:

    But Cotto wasn't in the top 10 when Pac fought him and I'm not sure about Hatton's ranking. I'll check in a second

    I voted Wilder, because well, he is young and well, being protected.

    Plus I'm sure everyone else is voting for Junior.

    I believe Cotto was in the top 10. Hatton was ranked number 6 if I'm not mistaken. I can't find a site that shows the past's rankings.

    I know that and I already said he fought one top p4p ranked fighter and I was referring to Juan. Also Pac's team clearly ducked Mosley when he was ranked number 3. I'm mostly trolling, but I'm very serious about this.
    They ducked the **** out of Mosley after he beat Margarito
    :lol: **** idk. There's no way of checking this. I can't find it either

    Cotto was 7th or something P4P, floyd avoided cotto, margarito around 2008, he even said in a interview with someone that it was a good thing that he didn't fight margarito because it turns out he's a cheat. Floyd and Pac make fighters look like **** that's why people criticize their opponents, look at cotto beating margarito everyone went crazy when pac beat him up worse - margarito was ****.

    In case you dont know, Al Haymon cant tell Floyd ****. People keep looking for a puppet master in Floyds business but the fact is; he calls his own shots. Al Haymon didnt make him and he dam sho cant break him.
