    I personally do. I think JMM won the 2nd fight with Pac, and on that basis JMM's last three fights have been more impressive than Pacquaio's.

    I sympathise with your position. I thought Marquez won II also. I also think they've looked as impressive as one another since. But the fact is that Pac got the decision. This places the burden of proof on Marquez. I have Pac at #1, but Marquez is a very tight #2.

    I agree with this. Pacquiao, just. It's so close every fight these two have could swing it one way or the other.

    There just can't be a #1 p4p.
    To be #1 you have to beat the others. WIch will never happen in that case.
    These p4p rankings are just ridiculous.

    tito its just about who is the best fighter in the world, p4p is just a word to describe that.

    Pac is pretty much tailor-made for JMM, but on my card he still won twice by 1 point.

    imo he's clearly better though JMM is an amazing talent himeslf

    Pac or JMM. A strong case can be made for either at #1. I have Pac in the first slot because officially he beat JMM in their last fight, even though, personally, I thought JMM just nicked it.

    Right now, I can't separate them. I definitely see the argument for JMM being number 1. If Pac beats Hatton, he is a clear number 1, but I wouldn't argue with anyone who has JMM first at the moment. His wins over Casamayor and Diaz were exceptional. The world is waiting for Pac-JMM III....

    Wow, thats kind of deluded. Even if JMM was behind on the cards, the fact that he KO'd Cassamayor kind of makes that irrelevent, don't ya' think?

    There are very few fights I would rather see than JMM-Pac 3. Although I'm pretty excited about a potential Abraham-Pavlik clash. You a fan of AA, Dinamita?

    I wouldn't say I'm a fan exactly, but I do rate King Arthur, yes. I can see him coming from behind to stop Pavlik. I think he will be better at supermiddleweight, the weight is hampering him at the moment, hence his sluggish performance the other week. Abraham v Kessler is a Euro superfight for 2010!

    Abraham-Kessler actually sounds great and I think Kessler would be a tougher proposition for AA, than Pavlik. I just watched Abraham-Miranda 1 a few days ago, probably the most gripping fight I've watched recently. I can see Abraham stopping Pavlik as well, at some point, and it might be early, Pavlik is going to stop and trade and when that happens I think Abrham will end it. Or, Pavlik somehow becomes a master tactician overnight, stays away, and wins on points.
