Not hating, just curious about your thought process here...

- How do you put Marquez at #2 when he's done little more over the past few years than knock out a faded, Unfocused pacquiao in a fight he was losing?

That is one shitty list.

No wonder the ring has little to no credibility left.

Theres simply no way you can justify having Broner at number 5.

Not hating on the kid but he shouldnt even be top 20.

Then you keep Donaire on the list but dont even have the guy who schooled him there WTF.

Anyone who still refers to it as the bible of boxing should be shot.

1. Ward
2. Mayweather
3. Marquez
4. Rigondeuax
5. Martinez
6. Pacquiao
7. Mares
8. Matthysse
9. Donaire
10. Wlad

Rigo is likely superior than Marquez at this time but I'm still giving Marquez his dues for not just beating Pac against but stopping him. Once you get past six it's a bit more interchangeable.

Whoa! Someone please tell me why the **** Guillermo Rigondeaux isn't in The Ring's top ten pound for pound. Ok, he only has 12 fights. Did I not see him outclass the Ring's #5 pound for pound guy last Saturday? Maybe it was all a dream, I don't know. Adrien Broner is # 5? :huh Nonito Donaire is # 10? Yeah, ok.

Guillermo Rigondeaux's win over Donaire was better than any SINGLE win in the careers of Andre Ward, Adrien Broner, Robert Guerrero or Timothy Bradley.

the logic they uses just makes it worse

pound-for-pound rankings: There was some discussion by the Panel regarding Rigondeauxs pound-for-pound placement following his victory over Donaire, who was No. 5 in the mythical ratings going into their showdown.

Some felt that Rigondeaux should enter the pound-for-pound rankings based on his strong performance against Donaire, and the fact that he beat an elite fighter in only his 12th pro bout. These Panelists looked at the pound-for-pound rankings of Adrien Broner, Robert Guerrero and Timothy Bradley, and suggested that Rigondeaux could replace either one, entering the list anywhere from No. 8 to No. 10.

However, the Editorial Board decided against ranking Rigondeaux in the pound-for-pound top 10 at the present time, which in no way is meant to dismiss the Cuban amateur legend. Rigondeaux has proven to be the best 122-pound boxer in the world, however, the other fighters in the pound-for-pound top 10 have proven themselves in multiple weight classes.

Both Broner and Guerrero have fights scheduled with pound-for-pound implications. Guerrero faces pound-for-pound king Floyd Mayweather next month. Broner, the magazine's No. 1-rated lightweight, challenges welterweight titleholder Paul Malignaggi in June.

Bradley is coming off a tough fight against a fighter most expected him to dominate, but the two-division titleholder is undefeated and he does own a victory over Manny Pacquiao, however controversial it may have been.

The Editorial Board and the Panel will revisit the argument to rate Rigondeaux in THE RINGs pound-for-pound rankings after Mayweather-Guerrero, and if need be after Malignaggi-Broner or after Rigondeauxs next fight.

If the class he exhibited during the Donaire fight is any indication of his potential its only a matter of time before the savvy southpaw breaks into the mythical rankings.

In the meantime, Donaire, who performed poorly against Rigondeaux, drops to the No. 10 spot on the pound-for-pound list.

There was a discussion among the Editorial Board to replace Donaire with Rigondeaux or perhaps another accomplished ultra-talent, such as undefeated WBA junior flyweight titleholder Roman Chocolatito Gonzalez but it was decided to keep the 30-year-old veteran, who had a banner year iin 2012, on the list.

The loss to Rigondeaux was Donaires first in 12 years. In that time, hes won major titles at flyweight (by knocking out then-undefeated and pound-for-pound-rated Vic Darchinyan), bantamweight (by knocking out then-pound-for-pound-rated Fernando Montiel) and junior featherweight, where he unified two major belts and earned THE RING title.

so rigo is too inexperienced and unproven to be ranked they put broner in at 6 after he beat demarco and they kept donaire ranked but didn't rank the dude that whipped his ass.they rank also floyd number 1 at jmw but have made canelo no2 and trout no3 for their title atsch

Rigondeaux should be in Broner's place, at the least.
