Why 'P4P' Rankings are.....

Reason why it's hard to put Floyd at #1 despite Pac struggling vs. Marquez. He is just too inactive.

 

umm are you arguing that mayweather shouldnt be included in the p4p rankings??

 

What's complete and utter bull**** is your argument. Are you really going to tell me that if it weren't for p4p rankings that Mayweather would be more active? That's essentially what you're saying. It's a completely idiotic argument.

 

I thought P4P were reflections on recent performances and who beat whom(did it do it right?).
Right now we should have a vacant nr 1 spot. Lets wait for a while to see who can fill it up.

 

So then you're basically saying that Mayweather has been inactive in part because of the p4p rankings. Why don't more fighters do this? Fact is, p4p rankings have **** to do with how active or inactive a fighter is. If you want to say p4p rankings should put a heavier emphasis on activity, that's one thing. However, to say that p4p rankings encourage inactivity is just ridiculous.

 

always will be! with that said ring is still the MOST LEGIT!

PAC LOST HIS TITLE..FLOYD AT THE 1 SPOT PAC AT THE 2 SPOT.

 

If they structured it like the FIFA rankings used to be a few years back then it would be better. Only results from the last 4 years count. And your best 4 results are used in each year encouraging boxers to be active.

Year one , this year
Best 4 results are submitted at 100% scored
You get 3 pts for a KO win, 2 for a pts win, 1 for a draw and none for a loss
Manny is ranked as 1000 points as he's no 1
Floyd is 999 and so on.
If you beat manny by KO this year you get 1000 x 3 x 100 = 3000000 pts
Next year this score will get down graded to 75%
the year after 50% and the final year 25%.

Cuts all the subjectiveness out of this. The only problem I can see is that we'd have to explain it real slow to our American friends

You could do this in each weight division, then give bonus points for fighting up or down weights for the P4P ranking.

 

That's fine. But surely you see the difference in saying activity should play bigger role in p4p rankings rather than saying p4p rankings encourage inactivity and are bad for boxing. Those are two completely different arguments.
