    Froch has certainly catapulted himself up the rankings with that performance in my book.

    The P4P rankings seem to be mostly comprised of guys who are perceived to have that level of talent, without having done much to justify it.

    Given Froch's outstanding level of recent opposition, I would be perfectly happy to see him in there.

    Deluded. The Kessler fight could have gone either way, though i had Kessler by a round. It certaoinly wasnt the asskicking you`d like to believe it was, Kessler was nearly gone in 11 and 12.

    Fact is, if Wlad got knocked out by bums and only beat bums Klitschko is on this list, Froch needs to be on it.

    I said it could only be used in hindsight.

    In other words, great win, but looking back, at the time it happened, were you clamouring to put Froch in the pound for pound list? No.
    You might do this, but I dont just rank fighters based on what a previous opponent went on to do. If that were the case you could put Chris John in your top 10 for beating Juan Manuel Marquez before Marquez went on to unify the lightweight division.

    Id appreciate it if in future you actually read and fully understood my post before putting words in my mouth.

    ermmmm hes only 1-1 in his last 2 fights and his fight prior to that 50% of fans thought he lost to Dirrell. SO he's not top 2 at 168, arguably not top4 at 168 so no chance of being a P4P top10er unless he beats Ward

    I think that Froch´s done more than Nonito Donaire or Bradley

    Not if he lost to Kessler and Dirrell.

    He passed Dirrell with this win, but I still have him at #4 in the weight class and about at the back end of the top 20. Ward also finally passed Bute for me.

    Why is Froch behind Bute?

    More importantly how was Bute ahead of Ward?

    Wladimir at 9. Vitali nowhere to be seen.

    Wladimir is there based on beating Chageav, Peter and Chambers as easily as Froch beat Abraham.
