    Sorta like U being a near record setting lower IQ for making up stuff that U know not.
    What exactly does Manny being a great fighter have to do with size? Does it make him bigger, smaller, impervious to natural growth rates? Use some common sense instead of trying to inflate those you like and degrade those you dont.

            It means the guy is really good.

              - - The earliest P4P ranking by a forgotten Boxing writer was the excellence of any fighter for his lbs, ie Sugar Ray Robinson.

                      My point is that Robinson was not the first instance of p4p. I also remember Benny Leonard being referenced as p4p in an old newspaper article, but would have to do some research to find it. Obviously Robinson is most associated with the term, but he wasnt the first
