    Just outside my top 20.

    Guzman doesnt have any power against credible opponents.

    Lopez does.

    Credible opponents?

    As far as I'm concerned he has 1, who was very over-rated in the first place.

    So on the basis that power has a big place in your ranking, I presume you have Juan Diaz outside your top 100?

    Top 15 no way!
    He has the potential to be top 5 in the next couple of years but i don't rate De Leon and the Madina fight was a farce.
    If he beats Penalosa he's in my top 25.

    Purely on head to head, I think he's probably top 5 right now, but he doesn't have one of the 30 or 40 best resumes out there. He still needs to step up and face someone who's highly regarded before getting up there. His best win by far is still PDL, and that's just not the type of win to get you into the P4P.

    resume, he is not top 15 but p4p also consider potential and perception...its up to you to provide what percentage would you give to percepion because for sure lopez would be favored over caballero if they fight today

    Like I said before the P4P concept is nothing but promotional bull****!! I don't believe in P4P rankings. I like division rankings and that's it.

    JML is a great fighter, but he is still a baby.
    One day he may be considered as one of the top P4P fighters.
    But right now he still has alot more knocking out to do.
    He still hasnt fought the best.

    Is this a joke thread ?

    **** me. Honestly guys, ESB has outdone itself again.

    Lets see a fighter develop, prosper, get into contention before we start hailing him the 2nd comming.

    Ffs honestly you dumbasses never learn

    juanma wont be top15 even if he beats penalosa. he should be top 15 if he beats any of the other title holders at his weight. gerry is skilled and all but he is best days are clearly behind him. and gerry was defeated by de leon who was kod in one by juanma. so lopex does not get a lot of points by defeating gerry
