    2. Ward
    3. Pacquiao
    4. Bradley
    5. Marquez
    6. Rigo

    8. Wlad

    I personally don't give a **** about p4p list. Just another rubbish to fuel the politics.

    I really don't see p4p lists factoring into the politics of the sport. It's mostly a tool used to spark debate amongst fans.

    You didn't mention the TNBR list.
    Given how it's compiled, it certainly merits a mention in the discussion.

    1 Floyd Mayweather, Jr.
    2 Andre Ward
    3 Manny Pacquiao
    4 Timothy Bradley
    5 Juan Manuel Marquez
    6 Carl Froch
    7 Wladimir Klitschko
    8 Guillermo Rigondeaux
    9 Danny Garcia
    10 Roman Gonzalez

    Voted ESPN

    Swap around Ward for Pacman and I'd settle for that.
    P4P Ward hasn't done anything. He cleared out 1 Division. Many other boxers have done that.

    all of them are terrible since they have Wladimir in the top 10 despite never beating one elite boxer

    I chose ESPN. I don't like any list with Wlad in the top 5. And Rigo needs to be rated highly too.

    I wouldn't put him in my top 10 either. I need to make my own list.

    P4P lists are pretty much just troll tools, nothing more.

    Inactivity? Mayweather was fighting once annually and still managed to be on the list. If Ward doesn't fight this year, then he should be dropped or removed. As much as I like him, he needs to move up.
