    ATG Pac ranks ahead of him even with the robbery.
    But currently p4p i have JMM at 2 and Pac at 3 as i do not acknowledge official results when its so blatently obvious that it was a robbery.
    Same as i do not rate Helenius over Chisora or Williams over Lara.

    Some decisions are so disgraceful you can not use the official result.

    If you're one of those people who keeps boxing records for fighters that are entirely separate from the official record, then I suppose it makes sense that you would also have your own P4P list based on that record.

    Just don't run around here acting like Floyd being 41-1 or Pac being 52-6-1 is some sort of universal fact. The official record is more important than your record, so that's what I go by.

    Two close fights and one really close fight or even a loss don't erase entire careers, or you would be ranking Gene Fulmer and Joey Maxim or even Carmen Basilio (the most deserving) over Sugar Ray Robinson, absurd in light of their entire careers.

    With a different ref, Pac almost blew JMM out IN ONE ROUND. Has Jmm even come close to doing that or even had Pac off his feet? So even though their fights are always close, Pac deserves the edge for sure, because JMM should count himself lucky not to have a 1 round KO loss on his record.

    Which means that Sven Ottke is the p4p GOAT at SMW. :D

    See, I don't really get that ranking, and a lot of people seem to abide by it by default. Beating the #1 should get you a higher place than having beaten the man who beat the #1.

    Mayweather shut out Marquez who beat Pac. I'm not implying Mayweather would shut out Pac because I don't believe in triangle theories but ranking Marquez above Pac whom he has beaten several times and having him behind Floyd against whom he got shut out sounds perfectly reasonable to me.

    No
    1. Pac
    2. Floyd
    3. Marquez

    That's how it should be.

    I bet you wish that Pac had gotten that 1st round KO uh? Then you wouldnt have as many nightmares. JMM is too good to be stopped.
