    I'm not saying, he should or shouldn't - but just posing the question.

    Pavlik recently made the top ten list off the back of a win over Gary Locket.

    The current top ten

    No, because he doesnt represent what P4P really means. David only knows how to do one thing, and thats KO ppl. He's not a 12 round fighter, and its not like he's a good boxer. Take away his KO power & speed, & David Haye is...? Not a real definition of p4p at all.

    Says the guy who places Jones resume below Hopkins, and Calzaghes - states he only ever fought bums - and had a glass chin his entire career.

    Hopkins has not been brutally KOed twice by average fighters and did not handpick basically his whole career. Yes Roy has a Glass Jaw the proof is there to see. Hopkins recent wins trump anything Roy ever did and at 43 years old at that.

    And to answer your original question your post is why P4P is the dumbest thing in Boxing.

    That's not strictly true the guy is technically OK - he has a quality amateur boxing upbringing as well being a silver medal World Amateur Champion. He is actually one of the more textbook of the UK fighters at the mo.

    Rightly or wrongly Wlad has been largely overlooked in the p4p lists - Heavyweights often are. Wlad perhaps has a case to make the list.
