    I don't believe in P4P, it's a bunch of bull.

    everybody seems to outwork gerry...gerry is a small guy but when he punches it's right on target..sadly it is overshadowed by his lack of voluminous punches

    Actually, I disagree, people make their P4P based on accomplishment too much, that why so many « so called upset » happens every week/month.

    p4p must not be 100% resume...i guess it's fair to factor in certain percentage to skill and talent as well as the fighter he could beat...that's why i do not understand why some do not put victor ortiz outside the top 10 of 140

    It's not about potential or who he could beat, it's about what you've done to deserve a spot.
    P4P is 100% merit, H2H, resume, Accomplishments defiantly not Potential.
