    How could he possibly have done that? By knocking out a second rate brawler on the break when he knew he wasn't looking?

    If beating Ortiz is better accomplisment than beating Mosley and Margarito, then yes.

    Having just seen the video posted here, I must say that I don't believe the KO took much much skill.

    Ranking anyone based off of one fight would be foolish. However, Floyd has built his case over the course over many, many years. He's the best fighter in the world regardless of where people want to rank him. Is what it is. If people don't want to rank him because he's not as active, etc., that's fine. Doesn't change that he's the best in the sport of boxing.

    Number 1? By beating who? Young Hungry Lion Ortiz? :rofl

    Beating Maidana's leftover by a sucker punch doesn't make you P4P # 1 :lol:

    P4P is an imaginary title made up to honour the position of Sugar Ray Robinson as the best fighter in the sport bar none.

    At the moment, the evidence indicates Floyd is the best fighter in the sport, bar none.

    Yeah because hitting a guy while his hands are down while he's looking away gives you a p4p excellence.

    Yeah, that's not subjective. When it's all said and done you can be the one to correct all the historians who properly rank Pac ahead of Floyd.
