You'd have to go back to 98' and Holyfield since a Heavyweight was rated so high. Unless you actually considered RJ jr. a true heavyweight after his one fight vs Ruiz. Either way Jr. didn't stay in the division after the victory. 1)Floyd 2)Ward 3)Marquez 4)Wlad 5)Mares 6)Broner 7)Martinez 8 )Paq 9)Bradley 10)Alvarez
I think it's crazy for him not to have been in the P4P ranking. The man is dominating a weak divison, granted, but he also easily beat what most people had considered the biggest and only threat to him.
Been a bad month for Donaire. Went from P4P top 4-6 to off the list with his lose to Ringo, then Mare's makes it to #5.
I certainly wouldn't have him that high but it's not as egregious as having Broner at #6. Rigo and Froch should both be in there.
Sad thing is that Ring magazine doesn't take their own P4P ranking seriously anymore. Doughie's take on it that only the nerds under the boxfans care for it, and he thinks Broner doesn't qualify but he is in anyway... :roll:
I think 5 or 6 is fair.. 4 is a little high but it could be worse. Rigo should be in there, no clue what Broner is doing in it.
How many times have they rated a guy that has one quality win (in boring fashion btw) in such few fights? I can't think of very many. If he wins another fight I am sure they will rank him.
