Paul VS Floyd showed P4P is a nerd myth that doesn't exist in real life

[ExitLUPin]

Paul can not even box or fight and he went the distance with Floyd without getting hurt once.

We saw the same shit when Anthony Smith failed to incapacitate a drugged up WW home intruder. Meanwhile Derrick Lewis nearly killed a man for tryna carjack him.

At the end of the day P4P Usman, Max, Yan, Khabib etc. would get turned into a pretzel by the likes of Francis, Volkov, Stipe etc.

duh
weight classes exist for a reason

nobody expects holloway to beat lewis even if the first one is a lot more skillful

 

[xn7]

that doesn't make p4p a myth at all. are you retarded. yes.

 

[peterparker66]

you clearly don't understand the concept of P4P

 

[lefthighkick01]

Floyd is past his prime now... and quite old in boxing

a youner floyd would turn up the heat and probably TKO Paul

I’m not sure I understand the point of this thread. It doesn’t make sense

Not really. Canelo would beg to differ as would Manny in his prime.

MMA used to be OW and the best fighters who'd be in smaller weight classes today were able to succeed. Weight classes are there to protect lower ranked fighters from getting killed not to protect the best. Not that size isn't an advantage is totally is just this is overdoing it trying to rationalize this.

I don't think you understand what p4p means. It does not mean a 145 pound guy can beat a 250 pound guy if that 145 pound is higher on the p4p list.

Dana White is the GOAT fighter

 

[Kyler Ruxin]

the fact that "Usman, Max, Yan etc. would get turned into a pretzel by the likes of Francis, Volkov, Stipe etc." is the reason P4P exists.

It's the best fighters in their weight classes, while knowing that if they all had to fight at open weight, the bigger guys would all be at the top.

This lmao

dudes used to say Allen Iverson is the P4P best basketball player b/c they knew he couldnt touch Shaq, Duncan, Kobe, TMac, KG, Dirk etc. Size matters.

Canelo is only the best P4P judges favorite.

Do you…. Do you know what p4p means? Of course the bigger guys would win, that’s why the idea of p4p exists lmao.

 

[Selukrid612]

Yes, we know. The worst UFC HWs would smash the stars from lighter weight classes.

P4p doesnt mean what you think it means first of all. 2nd of all, young Floyd still KOs Logan

This is true. Capability is not based on size, but rather on ability.
