how can a fighter beat a lb4lb number one and not become lb4lb champ?!

imagine if gatti or baldomir beat floyd, they would've been P4P number one in an instant lol

 

P4P takes into account career achievements and quality of wins as well. So just because you beat the man doesn't mean you become the man.

 

Who is this? Ricky Hatton?

 

Because that's just 1 fighter you beat. It takes more than 1 elite scalp to be considered P4P. In the exception that you are the #2 fighter in the world, then you get the top slot (considering you're in the same division). If you're nowhere in the top 10, then you're most likely to get noticed now.

 

pound for pound means absolutely nothing. it is mythical and based solely on opinions not facts.

 

Rather, its an opinion based on facts. There are constructive ways to come up with an answer, and most of the time, each one's opinion (majority) is similar to the others.

 

i'm not even sure he's the best in his own weight class, never mind p4p. let him beat some welters, then we'll see
