    Ravioli just posted his p4p list and has Paul Williams at #3! Pretty high in my humbled opinion. Thoughts?

    The same Paul Williams who in the eyes of many lost his last 2 fights?

    So who is №1 and №2? I guess its Martinez and Cintron?

    Seems high to me, but not THAT high, and only because I scored the Martinez fight closely in favor of Martinez (I had Williams losing against Cintron at the time of the dive too, but he was coming on strong and I can't really dock him too much under those circumstances). Rafael thought Williams beat Martinez and Cintron, and if that's the case, then #3 makes sense. It's not like anyone else out there has a better recent resume on paper other than Pacquiao. Personally, I have him fifth, behind Martinez and Marquez.

    The winner of Williams vs. Martinez II deserves to be a lock in for number 3 IMO. I have reservations about Williams as far as his skills are concerned, but after Pacquiao and Mayweather it's all open for debate and you can't really criticise anyone who has either Marquez, Martinez or Williams.

    Agree with you here. Mayweather and Pacquiao are so far ahead of everyone else that it's hard to pick a number 3. Winner of Williams/Martinez will deserve it as much as anyone.

    Hopefully things will clear up next year with the 140 division mini tournament and hopefully a Bute/Ward fight to establish a legitimate top 5 P4P full of prime fighters.

    Nah. It's just a pun on Rafael's last name, together with the fact that if you poked him with a fork, a gooey, cheesy filling would ooze out.

    I thought he beat Martinez but I can't see how anyone had him ahead of Cintron before he decided to hop out of the ring.

    3 is way too high I mean he has defeated Quintana Margarito Wright Martinez and Cintron so he should be top 10 but better than 5 is crazy

    I dont know, just seems high too me. He is a top 10'er but 3 seems high. Martinez will prove that soon enough.
