    As usual with P4P ratings you can always argue with others choices;)

    For example - where is Langford?

    Though it probably means since 1922;)

    Then where is Benny Leonard?

    Yeah, Pep dominated his natural weight division for several years then stepped up and knocked Ike Williams all over the ring.

    Oh wait, that's what Duran did to SRL.

    Pac's not retired yet.

    Cliff Rold voted Pac "Fighter of the Decade" on his poll along with all the scene's staff. He says the #1 vote was unanimous (all scene staff voted for Pac).

    So no. Cliff Rold not a *****.

    :deal

    I don't see how a loss to Floyd and Mike Jones will propel Pacquiao to the top 10

    Mike Jones sucks. He should do MMA.

    Wouldn't that be a good reason to put him in the top 10 then? Although I don't have deep boxing knowledge so I better just shut up.
