By that logic shouldn't Diego be the greatest of all time because he was undefeated at Middleweight before going down to Welterweight? If Kawajiri moved up and fought Denis Kang would that make him the #1 Pound for Pound fighter to you?

If he can hang with guys 50lbs heavier than him, yes that does say something. What other LW or even WW could do that.
BJ didn't fight to not lose, he fought and he lost a close decision, you're trying to make it sound like he just hung in there.
What does P4P mean. I always thought it means who is the most skilled, regardless of weight, and when you can fight guys who have much better advantages and still win, or atleast put up a great fight that shows something.
What does what I thought of Lyoto last March have to do with anything?
