    well yea a p4p ranking is how good a fighter is today.

    An ATG ranking is very different. Its still about ability but there are some abilities that are applied over a long period of time. Longevity is the perfect example of that. How long can a fighter stay at the top of his game? Someone who was very good over a 20 year period will usually be ranked higher than someone who was better than him for just a year or two but alot worse during the rest of his career.

    agree...i think 60-40 is a fair division between resume and ability in ATG rankings because of longetivity factor...you have to match-up them a hypothetical set-up with fellow ATGs so that they would be timeless and to assess their real ability and talent.
