Why people cannot understand that BoxRec list very high only these who fight very often and only the highest quality opponents at different weight classes. Boxrec list is not based on hype and not on the fighters drama or how hansome they look. Hopkins last fights were only against #1 in the multiple divisions so his resume is much better than others. Pacquaio win over Oscar even impressive from the historical point of view is just a bump on p4p rating. Cotto's win over Mosley and Judah 2 years ago are weak because they were not rated VERY high at that time, and then Cotto lost to Margarito and beat next unproven prospect. Vazquez ... sorry he did not beat anybody else beside RMarquez since 2006 ... no matter how high is Rafael Marquez rated by fans this is not way to get high on p4p list. To get high rate fighter must stay ACTIVE and beat different competition at different weight limits.... Sorry Izzy's fans but being 2-1 with Marquez in almost 3 years count very little on p4p list.
I would like to propose a motion where anyone that starts a tread about the ratings of boxrec.com should get an automatic 1 week ban.
Boxrec P4P is based on a computerized thingy which is completely sux. Boxrec is only good for checking fighters previous bouts and stats.
