    That is the plan for now.

    When they are done, I may still want to do the rest. Not sure. Tabulating these lists is a more daunting task than I had realized at first.

    I definitely intend to do the original 8 followed by a P4P. Those will definitely happen.

    After the P4P list, I'll see if I'm still feeling ambitious.

    P4P I'd have him in the top 40 for sure, but how high I couldn't say. Let's see how the rest of his career goes.

    When it's time for the p4p top ten, you better to a proper list, not one of your ****ing "experimental" ones.

    Not long left for the lightweight list - got any revisions? I'm thinking Sammy Mandell :?

    I basically stopped reading this thread. It's horrible trying to narrow it down to ten. I'm leaving my list alone now, I think it's basically okay, and you could put yourself clean wrong.

    It's kind of funny actually - looking ahead to the featherweight list, Marquez is an absolute lock but Pac won't make it even though they're neck and neck head to head (as demonstrated in their first real-life encounter). It'll be strange to have to disclude him, but you really have to as it was such a pitstop.

    This thread damn near got me fired with all the footage pored over on the clock. My position might not survive feather.

    I'm most looking forward to bantamweight list. I wonder how many people will include kids Herman & Williams.

    I think it'll be easier.

    I'll struggle with Bantam.

    EDIT: In fact featherweight is an absolute nightmare...horrible. Dixon? Atell? Canzoneri? Armstrong? Sanchez? Kilbane? There seem to be some fighters where it's hard to know exactly what to do with them...and from a personal perspecive, there are guys like Kid Chocolate, Johnny Dundee and Pedroza who are there or thereabouts and I just don't have deep knowledge about them...

    Is he not? I've not yet even begun to give it thought. Something like ten title bouts all told...though in the final analysis this could still fall short of some old-timers I'm just not thinking of yet.

    Is it poor form to discuss the featherweight list in the lightweight thread? :think

    I think he will struggle to get in. He'd have to find his way past guys like Arguello, McGovern, Saldivar, Pedroza to get in...can he do that? My list is a mile from sorted at this point, but I wouldn't be surprised to see him slip from my list.

    Sombdy should notify the IBHOF of his existence.
