    If Diaz had got lucky against Pacman would he have been P4P #1?

    I'm sure Hatton with his ******ed logic would have had Diaz @ #1 in his list.

    The man has actually got a fair point, and illustrated well.

    p4p #1 is obviously not lineal. Marquez has a svery strong case as it is, and certainly if Pacquiao lost would be a shoe in.

    This **** is getting old very quickly...I normally pop over onto the general forum to view and participate in this level of puerile debate

    We all know Ricky's got a problem in understanding how the p4p thing works. It's been discussed before.

    Exactly, why do we have to keep answering the same questions over and over again.

    Its not a good point because everyone on this forum knows the P4P number 1 ranking isn't lineal. The thread is just a lame and clumsy wind up attempt.

    would marquez have been p4p number 1 if he'd beat PAC? Probably, it's not lineal but if a top fighter beats the man he's got a good case for arguing he's number one!

    I kinda agree there, I only judge a fighter on the fights I reckon they won and I dont think Pac was even close to winning

    A fight takes more than 1 kd to decide imo and JMM had won far too many of the other rounds on my card to make a difference.

    I wouldn't go that far, but I just feel that JMM has Pac's number and knows how to outbox him, I thought he just sneaked the win.

    It's his narrow punching style, unlike most mexicans he seems to rely heavily on straight punches. Even his hooks are thrown in a straight manner. He is very, very good! I'd be interested to see the chris john fight.
