Recent Pound 4 Pound Battles

[Jordan Diddy Buk]

I was think about it. And with all the discussion about p4p and fight that either matter or don't. I thought about looking at matches in years where both fighters ended up in the Ring magazine Pound 4 Pound list. Because I realize it doesn't happen much. These are examples of fighter who fought the best. These are the fights that make people love this sport. I only went up to as far as Zef's post did. http://www.bgol.us/board/showpost.php?p=10304667&postcount=30

Thanks. I got the list in an email. Not that different. But interesting to say the least. Thanks. Once I get a second I will knock these two years out.

I think I'll even add fights that involve the current p4p with the year before list. Since a lost would have knock them out of thecurrent list. But when the fight took place both fight were tops.
