    - fighter2r (9th in 2010, 6th in 2013, 4th in 2014)





    I guess that's 12 lol.



    Would be fairly easy to put them in order though, Id just give a point system to each's ranking through the years and should get a solid ranking of who has been the p4p best through the years.

    Maybe Ill do that sometime this week.

    Would be cool to be able to list the top 10

    Just rewatched Kirkland vs Ishida

    * It is just bizarre to me how fragile Kirkland was in that fight. Unreal. If he was that fragile earlier in his career he wouldn't have made it out of a few fights. Ishidas pinpoint, lanky shots Im sure had a lot to do with it, but still....


    * That was, just imo, one of the worst stoppages of the year. There was no 3 kd rule, Kirkland was not taking actual punishment, he just couldn't keep himself up when tagged. Hell he was seemingly smirking at the situation a few seconds before Cortez waved it off. If theres no 3 kd rule, you don't stop a fighter like James Kirkland in the first round if hes not in any 'real' danger.

    Idk.... maybe Im being a little biased there but jeez..... Vargas was more hurt in the first round against Trinidad then James was against Ishida.

    Im so glad Cortez is retired.

    Disagree completely with you about the stoppage. Kirkland had gone down three times, each time in more definitive fashion than the one before it. There was a well over a minute left in the rounds, but even in that short a period of time it was apparent that Kirkland wasn't taking Ishida's punches well at all, given that he was getting buckled or dropped every time a punch landed.

    Stoppage was not only warranted, but needed under those circumstances.

    :good I can see where youre coming from.... just one of those situations everyone may make a different call. By all means kirkland could have went down another two times in the round and gotten hurt.
