    Sigh....another post thats been done to death.

    Boxrec using a computerised ranking system much like the IBO uses taking into account factors such as rank, quality of opponenet faced, frequency of fighting etc.....

    ^^^^ I tend to agree. The IBO actually seem to pick out the best in the weight class. Much like the Ring belt....

    Although obviously there is a lot of B/S as well.

    these lists if every single boxing fan made a list it would be different .

    Wlad was on the boxrec P4P list, but with his last win over a low rank opponent and all the waiting he's done to make the Haye fight his ranking has actually dropped ... in the mean time Vitali has wins over Peter and Gomez who ranked highly at the time he fought them.

    If Vitali beat both Wlad and Valuev, he would deserve a top 10 spot P4P. Because then he would hold all 4 major belts, even I as Klit hater would agree that he should deseve a spot somewhere in the top 10.

    It's a ropey list but let's be honest, picking are pretty slim for a top 10 of real quality

    Thing is with P4P lists there is never a set way of doing them. If people can't agree with each other then we choose to disagree with a computer! I bet any money that if 10 people on here made P4P lists, each would be different.
