    Where do you have Chad after his impressive victory this weekend?

    I'd say somewhere between 8-12 is justifiable.

    well he is damn good and is a complete fighter. I don't see many flaws. I say in reality he is probably number 2 or 3 but no name fighters will want to fight him.

    why ? tarver was nowhere near there so why would dawson suddenly leapfrog over many talented proven guys.

    Every elite known fighter leap frogs after every match. But Glen Johnson, Tom Adamek, and Tarver are not easy tasks. Hell Tarver just pitched a shut out against the number 2 light heavy in Clinton woods. Glen was number 3 light heavy, adam was 6.

    Talent wise, Chad could be top 5.

    He needs to have a stronger resume to be considered for that though.

    Adamek, Johnson and Tarver could beat any top super middle/lt heavy in the world so they are world class/elite fighters.

    The p4p rating have always include big names. even though most big names don't fight dangerous fights and receive credit for it. I mean how many fighters did Joe dominate to get number 2? Who did Cotto beat that merits him number 4 or 5? Quintana? Out of prime Shane which I think Shane won really.
