    Closest recently I believe was Calzaghe back in late 2007 when he was #3/#4 (After the unification bout with Kessler). Please discuss.

    When was the last time?

    He actually got to number 2 on the rings list after beating hopkins.

    Lloyd Honeyghan, after beating Donald Curry is the last i can think of? 1986..

    How long have p4p lists been around? don't think we've had anyone at number 1 since they started, we are just a little island though haha.

    He was robbed. The Ring mag is based in America, they picked Floyd, whi won a SD over a part time fighter.

    Calzaghe was P4P from 2006 to the day he retired.:deal
