    Does anyone know the timeline of pound for pound #1 over the years? I know Ray Robinson was the first and guys like Mayweather and Pac are the present but what about the rest of them. i can never find anything on line about this

    Ray Robinson was most definitely NOT the first.

    I'm pretty sure the Ring only officially started printing P4P lists in the 70's. I might be wrong, but Ray Robinson is of course considered the P4P no.1 of all time now, but back then I'm not sure whether there was a genuine 'Ring P4P Top Ten'.

    I might be wrong, this is probably selective memory :good

    Asero, The Ring magazine P4P is generally considered the 'definitive' P4P list.

    Which is exactly what I said earlier :good I said they didn't start til late.

    That is the P4P list we are talking about Asero. The guy wants a timeline of what has led to Pac being no.1 P4P based on the Ring Rankings, Pac, To Floyd, To Roy, To Hopkins (I assume that is how it goes)

    the ring ratings is not boxrec encyclopedia and wiki. why make a thread when the answer is all over the net. you can even find the top 100 since 1996

    what i posted concerning the p4p list by KO magazine and i think it would still put some essence to the thread..
