    I disagree.

    Sure in Rigo's case and maybe GGG's in the near future, but in most cases it's because of the "champ's" willingness to fight the opponents they should, or even holding the belt hostage.
    There will always be guys that get shafted by some rules, but mostly they just benefit the natural order of things.

    Gonzalez, Mayweather, Pacquiao, and Wladimir are the clear top 4 for me.

    Juan Francisco Estrada deserves placement on this list as well.

    Do you honestly think Wlad deserves to be ranked higher p4p than Pacquiao? I think you can just about make a case for Wlad being top 3, but no way is he #2

    Anybody wanna guess the last time there was a Heavyweight that ranked so high on the P4P list?

    Funny that he gets **** for the divisions lack of depth, yet at the age of 38 and surrounded by some ATG's and 1st ballot HOFers from any and every division, he's ranked #2. Voted on by people who cover and ****yze boxing for a living, not some keyboard warriors in a forum.

    Good. Great accomplishment.

    It would be nice to see him on the top of the list.

    I'd imagine Mayweather and Pacquiao will retire before Wlad so he might finally get to #1.

    I believe that would be the first since Tyson for a HW.

    Deserved. Always taking on all comers, in spite of size, style, risk. And still stopping them.

    Lennox Lewis was on the top ten list, I can't remember how high.

    Mike Tyson was the last heavyweight to be ranked P4P #1.

    I like Manny, but he has lost 3 times (probably should be only 2, Bradley fight) since Wlad has been on his unbeaten streak.

    Wlad should be #2.

    Ward needs to fight more and he has plenty of options (Kovalev, JCC, AA, Froch, etc.)
