    I guess I just ranked the fighters who were the hardest to beat at their best. Marvin Hagler comes out on top because I think he was the most complete fighter out of everyone on show, and Michael Spinks with his size, awkward punch delivery, and knockout power is hard to beat at 175lbs. I favor him over everybody at that weight in fact...even Jones. Holyfield was the most vulnerable, he was insolent with his offense which made him very hittable. See the Bert Cooper and Michael Dokes fights.

    :lol: No worries, I've been called a ******* 3 times already in the past week. I think it was for claiming the Filipino was still P4P number one, and that has he had a legitimate chance at defeating Pretty Boy Floyd.

    You know the reason i rank Holyfield so high?
    So many people forget his prior resume before fighting the giant heavys. I remember him when he was robbed big time in the 84 Olympics and totally dominated his competition he was the best fighter on that great team.

    Holyfield went on to beat a still very excellent fighter in Dwight M Qawi, and he only had 11 fights! Then whupped Deleon,Tillman,Parkey,Ocasio,and kod Steel chinned Qawi in the 2nd fight.

    His resume at Heavy speaks for itself. This alone puts him very high in my book in fact i have him around 20 in my all time rankings.




    PS SOME ASK WHY I DONT RATE HAYE OR ADAMEK SO HIGH ON PFP LIST? ILL TELL YOU WHY CAUSE HOLY PROVED HIMSELF AGAINST GREAT OR VERY EXCELLENT HEAVYS.

    ADAMEKS FIGHT WITH ARREOLA COULD HAVE GONE EITHER WAY IN MY OPINON.

    HAYE STILL HASNT BEAT ANYONE WORTHY.



    THESE GUYS GOT NOTHING ON HOLY:nono

    Yeah, you're right, having Michael Spinks second in this list is surely the consensus. Yawn. You have a big ****ing chip on your shoulder.
