    floyd mayweather has done nothing for me over the past 4 years. the only good win for me was over zab judah. i thought part timer dlh beat him and don't mention the hatton bout. he is a sliding junior welterweight.

    until he beats the likes of vernon forrest ,margarito, williams, quintan and cotto, he will not be number 1 (still top 3). an impressive win over dlh in sep could make him no1 again

    Pacman has clearly declined. He has looked a fading force to me since the 2nd erik morales fight. he was very lucky to get the nod against JMM (who is top 5 p4p for me)

    Cotto's is number 2 for me based on the opposition he has faced over the past few years. pbf may be too much but we will have to wait and see. He has faced 3 of the best welterweights in the world (mosley, judah, quintanta) and some really dangerous opposition at 140.

    Joe Calazaghe is the only man that has been truly outstanding over the past 3 years. He has beat the best in his division in impressive fashion, and has reigned for over 10 years as champ.

    My top 5 P4P are:

    Calzaghe
    Cotto
    PBF
    Juan Manuel marquez
    Pavlik

    Well, it's your opinion, you get no argument here.


    Joe is really outstanding. His name should be standing out of the P4P after tonight.

    Why is Pavlik so high? He beat J.Tyalor and Mirnada and that puts you in the top 5 P4P?It is to easy to get in to your P4P list maybe I am ranked 35 or something.

    Out of interest, why would you have Pavlik in your top 5?

    I rate Calzaghe high, but why in hell will he be no. 1 after beating a 43 year old bloke who has only been fighting old retired guys.

    he is a boxer I really like so I am biased towards him plus I believe he will be a top fight for the years to come and suprise alot like he did by defeating taylor and miranda. I also hated taylor so that earned him some points. I also did not put bhop or pbf in there so he would be around 7 on my real p4p. I don't expect to be agreed with but it is on my p4p but if I had to make it official with not being biased at all i will give my top 10


    PBF
    PAC
    Cotto
    Vaquez
    BHOP
    JMM
    Calzaghe
    Rafael Marquez
    Pavlik
    Klitscko

    ..and this coming from a floyd fan.. its just an opinion, dont get all upset now..

    I think of Calzaghe beats Hopkins, you could argue that he could be the #1 P4P fighter.. Without a doubt, top 3..
