Boxing Ratings 2004 top 12 P4P

Im confused. Is it going into 04 or the end of 04. If its the end of 04 RJJ cant be there because he was KOed twice brutally,Lewis had retired,Tito rapped Mayorga and Mosley lost twice to Wright he cant be so high. If its the start then still Tszyu dont belong he hadnt fought in forever and MAB had recently been killed by Pacquiao where is he at ?

 

yea that list would make more sense for early 2003

 

was Tarver not 10 after having a close fight with Roy?

 

I am not surprised.

He is not American. Except for Pac, when was the last time a none-American was voted p4p no. 1?

 

cant see nothing wrong with that list

 

:deal

 

Good list.

 

The Rankings. Ring? KO? Maxboxing?

 

P4P is a stupid rating system because it always gives more credit to the smaller fighters.

 

a good p4p list doesn't

 

People just assume that guys like Pacquioa would be able to retain their same quickness at every weight division and that's just not true. People are just too stupid to understand that.

 

thats not how it works

What you have to do is compare Pac's quickness to the average lightweight, and then imagine a heavyweight that would have the same quickness advantage compared to the average heavyweight. Do that for all of a fighter's attributes, and you have your p4p matchup.

 

True, but it is a little complex and far too many people are either not aware of this or able to do it.

I agree that p4p generally sux. But I also agree that a good p4p doesn't - good p4p lists however are hard to come by.
