    I think it makes sense if you are asking "Weight aside, who is the best fighter in the world?", as the P4P thing was originally intended.

    The way it is now when people are debating who is the 8th/ 9th best fighter in the world gets a bit OTT for me.

    Thanks that was my intention, not every day you get to talk to the legend that lost to the British equivalent of "Eric Crumble" :good :stir

    no one can mess with Baz man, he's proper solid.

    on another note, would you have fought Khan had you beaten big bad Baz? I heard that was in the pipeline.

    Yep, I think he was number 2 behind Mayweather at one point.

    i think it's mainly because the sanctioning bodies have lost so much creedence in the sport.there ten a penny nowadays.so the world champion tag has diminished and this p4p argument has been pushed to the fore.

    Lets be honest though, as bad as Carey is- and he isn't the best, he would still knock the absolute **** out of you wouldn't he?:thumbsup

    P4P is a good idea, but certain people rip the bollocks out of it... its an opinion. Fact is Hatton could have beaten Manny but he still wouldn't have been p4p number one beause there are fighters technically better then him.

    Don't be soft. I'm just winding you up.... I thought that pic was funny, me crashed out after a hefty session and a barbecue in the garden... happens to the best of us. Of course Baz would smash me, he's a professional fighter...

    Always fun winding up a wind up merchant.

    Don't **** with Jeff Thomas, he's proper solid :lol:

    Sorry pal but you were coming off as an arsehole, seems every psot by Kool I saw had a sly comment from you after, thought I'd get under your skin instead of you gettin under other peoples for a change. Obviously, I struck a chord :good

    P4P is pretty much bull****, I hate when it's referred to as something you can"win" from another fighter...
