Any comments or criticisms of the British Top 30 P4P list are very welcome.

Paul Butler should be on the list

Burns above Haye?

Not for me.

And, no Audley??

Horse.... If khan & burns fought at a catch weight who do you think would win?

Bellew rises on the back of that performance?

I have Macklin above Cleverly and billy joe Saunders is probably more worthy of a place than frankie Gavin, but they're just minor quibbles.

Barker doesn't deserve a 5 place increase after beating a very poor opponent in Rotolo. Munroe really needs to be taken out to allow for someone else to come in. He announced his retirement ages ago.

Why had Bellew climbed so many plAces after such a poor performance?

If he beats Kareem this month then he might enter, but his record is a little shallow at the moment.

Burns' record is much better than Haye's over the last few years.

Winning Prizefighter wasn't enough.

x2. That's some jump for Barker after beating an extremely mediocre opponent.

earsjohn wrote:Bellew rises on the back of that performance?

He was fighting a world level opponent and I think he did enough to nick the decision even though he was made to look very basic in the last half of the fight.

Macklin's good performances against Sturm and Martinez give him a solid argument to be higher than Cleverly. When is Macklin fighting again anyway? He seems to be inactive for no reason.

I think Gavin's wins against Witter and McIntyre are better than any of Saunders' wins, that is debatable though. I considered including Saunders after his win last month, but I thought the likes of Chisora and Haskins deserved to stay above him, so I didn't include him.

Deno1986 wrote:Barker doesn't deserve a 5 place increase after beating a very poor opponent in Rotolo.

I think Rotolo was made to look worse than he was by Barker. A 5 place jump is generous for that win, but I moved him up that much mostly because I thought Barker deserved to be higher than McDonnell and also because of his increased activity level.

Deno1986 wrote:Munroe really needs to be taken out to allow for someone else to come in. He announced his retirement ages ago.

If Chisora wins this month then Munroe will fall to 30th place and he'll drop out soon after that, possibly this month.

It was only three places. If Bellew didn't act like such an arse on Saturday then I think a lot of people wouldn't consider his performance to be as bad as they do.

Yes, but I don't normally take a fighter who has retired out of the rankings straight away.

I'd say Sexton & Donnelly are somewhat noteworthy, but his record is currently too weak for a top 30 place.

Is P4P a recent form guide or a question of who is the better fighter regardless of weight? Most of that list have had better wins that Haye over the past couple of years - he's only beaten Chisora in the last two years. On that basis he should be about 40th.

I was being sarcastic about A Force by the way...

He'll be out soon.

Macdonnell should be above Barker i think,

Thanks for doing the list though as always.
