    There is no way Pac should outrank Shane.


    Part of this is on popularity alone.


    Pac has not fought a single welterweight at the welterweight limit. Oscar drained all the way down below his weight class, and Cotto was not at the limit. Zero fights at the limit against a WW. Zero.

    Do you understand what that means? None.

    That a>b, b>c is not logic when it comes to boxing. Don't try to oversimplify. It's not that simple.

    Cotto was not the #1 WW at the time. Shane was. He was becuase he beat the man (Margo) in such convincing fashion. He deserves the #1 Ranking. Just because a fighter wins in huge event spectacles doesn't make the victory any better, more thrilling, or more exciting.


    Pac's victory over Cotto ain't **** compared to Shane's over Margarito.

    i think floyd deserves his place. he was ranked high before he retired (and was #1 p4p). though if the reason of him being no. 3 is by beating JMM, hell no.

    Void has to fight a top welterweight. Will Void sign to fight Mosely? Will Mosely agree to throw the fight to get Void to sign?

    Void needs to sign for the fight first.

    Void is now chicken champion.

    For the same analogy, if Floyd fights Foreman at superwelterweight, would he be in the top 10 automatically?

    These divisions are not exactly deep talentwise. Even welterweight at the moemnt. Who do you have? Mosley, Berto, Clottey, Margarito, Cotto, Collazo, Alvarez (Paul william probably can not fit in this division anymore without sacrificing performance). Based on perceived talent level, surely, mayweather would outrank most of these.

    In the superwelterweight, we have Foreman, Spinks, Martinez. Heck even the WBC has Chavez Jr. as the number 1 ranked challenger.
