    I know the whole p4p thing is mythical, but I have a real question.

    If Chavez is fighting about 8 pounds below his ideal weight class should will rank if he beat Sergio who happens to be about number 3 p4p on most peoples list?

    I used to think of P4P as people who jumped up or down to take on real challenges. For example I wouldn't give Ward an extra credit for beating Dawson at 168 in Oakland. No matter how he wins I will keep him at the same spot.

    Let's Pretend we all agree Tim Bradley won. Bradley believes this makes him p4p number 2 smh. I don't think you just up that fast. He would still be behind ward, Donaire, Marquez, Sergio, and maybe even Froch.



    So I guess the question is. If Chavez beats Martinez should weight be considered before people on the list? And what should he be ranked assuming no other major fights are taking place?



    P.S who thought we would be having this discussion 2 years ago lmao. Chavez Jr p4p sounds funny as hell to me :rofl:rofl:rofl

    Of course he will be but he would need to submit to some testing IMO.

    Martinez would drop, and Chavez would go up a bit.

    I'm not sure if I would have Chavez overtaking Martinez because, despite him beating him, Martinez has still achieved far more over the years <--- That doesn't disappear just like that.

    what the F are yu talking about ? Jr is fighting at his weight. maybe in year or so he will have to move to 168 because he is maturing but when in shape he easily weights in BELOW 160. how is that not his weight class? he doesnt even kill himself, if he did he would be dained. when he trains properly he weights in at 157-160. thats his current ideal weight

    He would definitely move into the #1 P4P slot for cutting weight and being able to still perform. Skill wise I would need to see him perform the same way with guys his own size before he started making significant movement up the P4P scale. SM is a smallish MW by current day standards.

    How you know all of this from Jr not taking comprehensive drug tests and him having failed for diuretic use is beyond me. Seems to me that Jr and train properly are not usually synonymous with each other.

    Okay, your freaking delirious and crazy! Chavez junior ain't ****! Who has he beaten to even be talked about? Zbik, no punch, Rubio very limited, Lee don't know why anyone thought anything of him, Carlos Molina kicked Chavez ass, but was robbed. Come on, seriously, Chavez is nothing but a tall big strong guy that will be exposed badly when Martinez give him a well deserved ass kicking. Junior's getting too big a head, and tries to be Mr. tough in the ring by taunting guys to hit him. Please do that to Martinez, and see what happens. P4P, are you serious? Mark my words, martinez, although smaller will easily outbox, out punch and beat Chavez up badly. Chavez will do the only thing he knows how to do, move forward, square up and try to fight like his father used to. He has no speed, no boxing, counter punching sills, bad feet. And by saying this, I mean he does these things in spurts, but he will never to stick to any of it. He does, what comes natural, and that s to keep moving forward, plodding along, and hoping to go to the body and head, which is fine if your opponent stays there like a punching bag. When Martinez fights Chavez, it will be a beating similiar to what Pernel Whitaker did to Chavez Senior, but was robbed badly. Martinez is too fast, southpaw, smart, stamina forever, great movement, defense. He beats Chavez in all areas. Martinez is P4P top 3-4. And what helps Martinez the most is having Mr. tough guy and big mouth tell martinez on HBO that he is going to knock him out and shut his mouth. Chavez, you gave Martinez all the motivation he needs, and you have an ass kicking coming. I will never post anything again if Martinez doesn't kick Chavez junior's ass, but Chavez needs to take a pre-fight urine test. Enough of this crap that he gets away with. Martinez needs to make sure the field is even. Chavez and his promoter look for any advantage they can get. Those guys are dirty! Did you see the phone booth boxing ring (NOT REEGULATION SIZE) Lee fought in vs Chavez? Notice Chavez didn't give a urine test for the second straight time in TEXAS, did you see how Chavez didn't want his gloves weighed, (do you know how bad Arum wants a Chavez vs Canelo fight? Make sure fight isn't in TEXAS, Don't let Arum/Chavez pick judges, referee. Martinez will be okay if he does all this. :happy:happy:happy:happy:happy:happy:happy:happy:happy:happy

    After being caught Mosley then under went testing with PBF. JCC jr tested dirty and has missed tests. If he agrees to thorough testing in the future I wouldn't have any problems with him.
