    I have never made a p4p atg list but am always interested reading views of other posters. Sweet Pea is a boxer not often mention in the forum imo and is generally under-rated certainly by the casuals.
    Just intrigued as to how people would rate him. Top 10? Top 20? Top 50?

    Never composed a p4p list but I'd definitely rate him really high, definitely at least top 20.

    I've had him as high as 15 on mine. 15-30 somewhere seems good to me. Even if you're not super impressed by his win column if you know boxing you can't watch him and see what he can do and not rate him on the short list. He was amazing.
