Friend that's your opinion but please don't be insulted when I call you a fukking idiot. I only call you that because you have the opinion of one.
Ward was not only expected to lose to Kessler who was the king of the division, Dirrell was the heralded amateur and of the 2 Americans in the tourney he was the one expected to do the best but neither was expected to win it. Ward not only dominated everyone of the premier 168's he beat Froch with one hand.
I don't subscribe to this imaginary letter rating system but I can't see Froch, Abraham and Kessler being "B Level nikkas" if they're still atop one of the deepest divisions in boxing. I mean Froch is on plenty P4P lists
Friend I'm no expert on weight rehydration but you fail to realize
P4P ranked Chad Dawson wanted to face Ward at 168
There was talk that Dawson would fight at 168 if he beat Ward and Dawson also rehydrated to 185 come fight night
Dawson was the bigger man in the ring, P4P ranked higher than Ward, Dawson had come off beating B-hop, Dawson was called a bigger version of Floyd Mayweather during the leadup to the fight and he was the Lineal Heavyweight champion.
Ward dominated this man ^ and made him quit. If his resume is not worthy of being ranked behind Floyd then the spot should be vacant because noone you listed has a better one.
