So I decided to check out BoxRec's all time p4p ratings and I found Archie Moore at the top. What?!

Can you give your analysis as to why you disagree?Originally posted by BigStereotype View Post -
Ray Robinson, Roberto Duran, Muhammad Ali, Joe Louis, Willie Pep, Henry Armstrong...There's my analysis.Originally posted by CarlosG815 View PostComment

They're computerized rankings, I'm assuming KOs count for quite a bit in the calculation.Comment

They also have the Klitscko's at #3 and 4 p4p currently. And if they retired today, their points would have them at #6 and 7 all time, ahead of Holmes. So while you shouldn't be completely shocked that Moore would rank so high, I wouldn't put a whole lot of faith in their point system based rankings.Comment

So I just did a little digging...Naz ten spots ahead of Salvador Sanchez. Yeah right.Comment

The exsistence of Ray Robinson for one thing.Originally posted by CarlosG815 View Post
Come on Carlos u cant think Archie who everyone loves and rates is worthy of the Number One Spot?Comment

No, I was just curious as to what his reasoning is. I have seen him call into question many people's list and why they have people ranked in a certain spot and I was just curious what it is that he personally knows of Robinson and Archie Moore to disregard it, other than general consensus. If somebody were to use their knowledge and reasoning and rank Moore #1 and could make a case, who is to disagree with it?Originally posted by The Surgeon View Post
That was my only point.Comment

It's a fair question, but it seems to me that the only reason he's up there is his absurd number of KO's. To be honest, I don't have a p4p list because my mind changes too often, but I can call foul where I see it. I guess I should work on establishing my list, though.Originally posted by CarlosG815 View PostComment
