Top 10 P4P fighters today

[Replies: 67]
Now that we've seen Mayweather vs Marquez and Klitschko vs Arreola, I want to see your current top 10 rankings. We haven't seen a HW in the top 10 for a while, does Klitschko make the cut? Is Floyd #1? I'm looking forward to seeing what everyone thinks.

I'm not too much of a fan of the old P4P list but I'll give it a shot:

1-Floyd Mayweather Jnr
2-Paul Williams
3-JM Marquez
4-Manny Pac Man
5-Bernard Hopkins
6-Chad Dawson
7-Miguel Cotto
8-David 'The Hayemaker' Haye
9-Kelly Pavlik
10-Vitali Klitschko

The reason I rank JMM above Pac Man is because in mine, and many other's eyes JMM won both those fights, the second one clearly. And PBF did a job on JMM, which puts him top. Pac Man is a great fighter but his great successes have been against fighters who for one reason or another weren't right weight wise or other reasons. Cotto for me gets the nod against Pac Man, but no doubt the judges will controversially hand it to Pac, but I see a great fight. Williams is the only guy out there who I give a chance against PBF. Sugar Shane was passed it years ago, he's showing great disrespect to Floyd at the moment and B-Hop should stop trying to press for the fight. B-Hop is still up there and if he had thrown more punches against Calzaghe, he'd have got the nod on my card aswell! Hayemaker will revolutionise the Heavyweight Division. His speed and power will expose the Klitschkos. I'd like to see B-Hop Dawson and I'm massively against Jones rematch. Roy Jones Jnr was the greatest of his generation. A prime Jones would've destroyed Calzaghe, did destroy Hopkins and would've manhandled Tarver and Johnson. I find it so sad he's dismantling his own legacy by keeping the show on the road.....kind of like SSM. Least DLH had the grace to pack up when he knew the time was up. So far. But even there I'd put heavy money on a DLH big fight in the next few years at Middleweight or around there. Really sad. But there you go. Mayweather head and shoulders above the rest, defensive genius, better then Pernell, a superb fighter. I'll miss him when he truely goes......

There's a reason why Fraud fought a featherweight in Marquez and won't fight Shane Mosley.
I always had Shane as the number 2 p4p

Pacquiao will beat Shane, but Shane would KO Fraud. If Fraud had problems with Hatton's strength, imagine what Shane would do.

This P4P list differs quite a bit from mine. But at the moment, the P4P list is kinda is a state of transition. Old P4P regulars like V-Hop, vazquez, and R. Marquez have been basically inactive. Guys like Hatton and Pavlik have suffered losses that have eliminated them from the list. And new guys like Caballero, Williams, Dawson, Adamek, Abraham, and even W. Klitschko are starting to pop up on some lists. I hope that we're able to get a few matchups in the next 12-18 months that pit some of these upstarts with the old hats so we can get a smooth transition on the list instead of basically having to play a guessing game.

I could easily insert Abraham for either Donaire or Guzman. I'm such a Guzman jocker that I had to put him on the list, despite him having done nothing for about a year. One thing is for sure, the top two finishers of the Super Six tournament make my top ten, and others will drop out.

> the Klit brothers have done more than freakn Donaire
> and Caballero have


I can't make an argument for keeping Vladimir
Klitschko off the list but can make one for
keeping Caballero on there.

Celestino Caballero has eight
defenses of his WBA super bantamweight title
that he won by bombing out Thailand's Somsak
Sithchatchawal in three rounds and partially
unified by bombing out Steve Molitor in four
rounds for his IBF version of that title which
he's also defended.

Not only that but Celestino Caballero is
persona non grata in the super bantamweight
division in that the Marquee stars who left
that division to fight featherweight don't
want any part of Caballero.

Do you think Pacquiao is on steroids?
Watching Pacquiao carry his power to the higher weight classes has me wondering is he is juicing. Being a personal trainer I know that it is very difficult to move up in weight and stay ripped. The Phillipines and Indosia are two of the biggest markets for steroids.
