    Are you ******ed or something? Pound 4 Pound means every division.

    Not just the welterweight division. Its for people who deserve to be at the top because of their accomplishments. Thats why Pacquiao was Pound 4 Pound champion when he was still fighting at Lightweight.

    Margarito was never Pound 4 Pound. He was the undisputed Welterweight champ until Mosley beat him.

    So they had 5 boxers on p4p list and the division is over rated. Can you name a better division now or hell can you name a better division in the past 10 years. I mean really if you admit they are good boxers what more do you want?

    It's both great and overrated. Being overrated isn't a measure of quality, it's a measure of hype.

    Why do I say that? Because the divisions that happen to be next in line in terms of quality depth, 168 and 140, have a whopping zero fighters that are ranked P4P. 147, which oh so coincidentally enough is the division HBO's invested in, has 6 guys who are Welterweights or fought there recently (5 if we leave off Marquez) in the top 10.

    So, that's my argument- it is a great division, but according to the Ring's P4P ratings, it is also overrated.
